What a joke
Will get it on bargain bin for ps4
Like I did with the other borderland games
This series doesn't deserve to buy it full price

I don't care about promises and roadmaps. I want to see the actual results. Valve used their "legendary" status as a carrot and a stick for way too long. 

The most interesting tidbit here is this:

Ismailer didn't elaborate on how the Epic Store will grow the Borderlands audience, but Epic provided some relevant numbers back at GDC, where it announced that the store has accrued 85 million registered users. 40 percent of those users don't have Steam installed

Which is kinda what I expected. A new generation of gamers that don't know or need steam.

Wait until 1st of May. 

Well looks like I am buying the Windows 10 version (If its cross play with Xbox) since I cannot be bothered starting another launcher account. I know its a petty little thing but I don't want my games too spread out. I stopped using Origin, GoG and Uplay.. well Uplay links via Steam which I think is a stupid idea and I don't even see the point in Uplay existing.

This makes me wonder what's going to happen a year from now. I doubt they will keep getting exclusives at this rate, it's not finantially viable. When all of the games come back to Steam, will the Epic Store have enough moment to survive, or will just be left alone when the exclusives are not a draw anymore?

Considering I have nothing better to do I will, but is there something planned for that date? Is it a simple Index announcement? Is there any chance that it won't be underwhelming yet again?

Yes, but that's the thing. The only real exclusive Epic has is Fortnite, that's the thing driving the most users to the store. The exclusive hunt Epic is doing is not only temporary, it's costing them a lot of money, and they are probably operating with relatively low profit margains. Taking games like The Outer Worlds and Borderlands 3 as exclusives cannot have been cheap. So by the time they decide this is not worth doing anymore, they must have something in its place, otherwise they are going to be left in the dust. Not to mention all of the problems the store itself has (lack of features, inferior return policies, spyware, Tencent as Epic's shadowy overlord...).

Way more important than the exclusives right now is the store itself and the number of games. They've already built a consumer base thanks to some exclusives that don't even own steam, now they just have to keep them and once that is done the base will increase naturally, given that enough games are on the platform.

Wait. Is the Epic client data mining people's PCs to find out if they have Steam installed? :P
