They have to have something up their sleeve to make this all worth it in the long-run. no one in finances can be that stupid to think Fortnite can print them dosh forever. 

People rag all the time about Valve making "no games", but here's Epic, still relying on a BR mode for the past 4 years now, to print them the biggest payroll.

This now makes me wonder how much they've been paying SE for these exclusives, because I doubt it's going to stop at KH and WewY. I imagine if they nab VIIR & XVI exclusivity, it'll be in the 100m.

Makes me wonder if SE is thinking it'll even make money from these a year later on Steam, let alone expecting a decent price discount of KH collection a year later (fat chance with Jap devs/publishers, because I've seen them expecting the West to pay full even when a console port hits PC years later, a storefront difference isn't likely to massively reduce the price). 

They also have Rocket League now .

And no one is going to give Square Enix 100 millions for the exclusivity of those two games. I'd bet that not even Sony would give them that much for their console exclusivity.

Also, Square Enix's own games never get more than a 50% discount, unlike the games from Eidos and such that get better discounts all the time. At least SEGA and Capcom are more flexible with their discounts.
