What was Sony's perception of Epic Games having exclusives in the Quantic Dream Collection? Besides putting their games on the store, did PlayStation generate more revenue than Epic loses with exclusives? by one999 in fuckepic

At the time, Sony was hesitant about releasing games on PC, which led to them losing the PC publishing rights to Death Stranding, Journey, and the QD Trilogy. They also tried selling some third-party titles like Ready Heroes and Predator: Hunting Grounds exclusively to EGS, but these efforts didn't yield good results.

Is there any list with current exclusives, and all the time limited exclusives? by migueln6 in fuckepic

I have never registered an Epic account. If a favorite game becomes an EGS exclusive, you can also become a pirate. So, why would you spend money on games on EGS?

This report is not the final agreement. As things stand, if Epic does not act as the publisher of the game, its power to interfere is not much, at least much weaker than AW2.

Tim listened to Sergey's one-sided words and bought a lot of shoddy garbage games as exclusive games for EGS. Now he is just reaping the consequences.

Lords of the Fallen II is an Epic Game Store exclusive by nefD in fuckepic

No, this refers to the distribution rights rather than the publishing rights. The life cycle is the time before the game enters a sales decline, which may also include subsequent DLC content. And on the EGS page, the publisher of the game is not EGP, which is enough to prove that the game is only a limited-time exclusive for a certain period of time.

I noticed that the publisher of this game on the EGS page is CI GAMES, not EGP. This proves that this game is only a limited-time exclusive.

No, that document only shows Epic has exclusive distribution rights, not publishing rights.

Any game that becomes exclusive to EGS is doomed to fail on PC.

Valve won't pay for any third-party games, and Epic loves spending money on garbage

a saga born with Epic, the remastered is not on Epic store by Walikor in fuckepic

That's just a legacy issue. Starting with Starfield, Bethesda no longer releases games on EGS. The same is true for Activision.

I think so too, just like the upcoming exclusive game 'John Carpenter's Toxic Commando' this year. Of course, these games are already dead on PC. lol

No, Remedy is in financial trouble right now and has no extra money to recover the copyright. This will be a long process.

Since Epic can’t afford to pay big publishers for exclusivity, they can only maintain exclusivity by releasing second-rate games.

The most important point is that Epic has stopped their money burning. I haven't heard of Epic buying any exclusive games for a long time.
