Any publisher is allowed to have their own store, just like Nintendo do, but they don't. Releasing on PS/Xbox/Steam etc. and paying a cut to them can't be that bad then can it? |
Exactly... and thats why I don't get what this is about.
If Epic wants to release their game on the PC, which so far is being treated as an open platform. Then they can and they can have their own store.
But if they want their game to be on another platform, then they ought to abide by the rules of said platform. And if those rules doesn't work for them, then shun the platform. Simple as that.
We have open platforms Windows, Linux, Mac OS. We have semi-open platforms, Android and Linux and we have closed platforms. Google Play, iOS, Xbox, Playstation. All have their advantages and disadvantages.
