  • That’s not a bad thing. Maybe some of us don’t want to be cluttered with a lot of things we don’t really care for on using. God forbid we go back to simpler days of communication whereas now we’ve got things like Discord trying to charge people to pay actual money to have fancy little animations for your profile picture.

    Is that what you think is missing? Stupid pointless things that make you feel special because you paid money for it when the true attraction should be focused on how much communicating can be efficient and caring about your privacy and security?










  • Let’s see…

    The launcher itself ran poorly compared to Steam’s. I’ve had instances of it freezing performance down just downloading 1 game through Epic’s launcher.

    You’ve locked down games behind multi-year exclusives, pissing off many people along the way that we’re now just seeing their Steam releases.

    You’ve spent years giving free games away, promising not to do anymore, going back to doing it again.

    The launcher and storefront are incredibly barebones compared to Steam’s. In fact, any launcher not Steam, has incredibly minimal to go with other than just running games through them.



  • I resonate the same way with Anime fans. I used to have seen many people identify themselves back in the 2000s as ‘Otakus’ and some even wearing the shirts to say so. It got off-putting for a good long while. There are even fans who uncomfortably reveal their favorite characters that all look suggestively underaged or too dolled up which makes associating with them in casual conversation a problem because of the mental gymnastics they’ll go through defending them.

    The anime fandom has a poor track record of just keeping these weirdos out which doesn’t make it good to indulge on the hobby.
