That explanation holds up until you try to play a UE5 game on a £3500 PC and it runs like warmed up dogshit, so I suspect devs aren’t working to the high end either.
The tech just sucks ass.
Tim Epic, the hero of developers everywhere against the tyrannical Valve regime, threw those developers under the bus in a very heroic way.
Fortnite isn't a game. It's a metaverse.Fortnite also stutters like a motherfucker, so i guess Tim can't make games either
Epic will have run a 20% cash back for over half the year. Surely they'll beat last year's third party revenue numbers, right?
Epic’s reward boost will eventually be like DFS sales - running for 360 days of the year.

This desperation just shows that its going really bad for them.
Or the few people using their store are using the coupons to buy more games. I'll never support EGS, but for some people, a 20% discount is enough to do so.
Fortnite promoting a ripoff of a Roblox game made with AIslop. From what I read they gave it the royal treatment with social media posts, in game banners, notifications and mobile push nofications. But hey it hit 400k concurrent and the Roblox version peaks at >21 million so I get why they did it.
Fortnite's player numbers the past week have been downright miserable, barely peaking at over 1 million on weekdays and 1.6 million on weekends. You can't even say it's kids returning to school as this time last year it was peaking at 1.5 million on weekdays and 2.5 million on weekends.
oof
It does seem like Fortnite is now the unc game and Roblox is the skibidi rizz (that hurt my soul to type).
Reminds me of when Steam was supposedly in trouble as Fortnite was where all the kids played and they would use grow up using EGS.
Maybe if instead of betting all on a limited pool of exclusives (of dubious quality too) Epic invested more in making sure the EGS got literally every single successful pc title in the last 5 years, maybe things would have been different
Why would anyone use the store where you can't play Elden Ring, Baldur's Gate 3, Atlus games, most Sega games, most Capcom games, Super Robot Wars? Like Concord launched on the EGS, but Helldivers 2 didn't! Imagine that

I think there's a new EU guideline that requires game devs to allow that, but it's still a great thing. It would be even better if they didn't obfuscate the real price behind funny money, but one step at a time.
Going on a tangent, I know Mihoyo had a settlement with the US government about a year ago and they started giving price ranges to guarantee a gacha character. The prices range from like $2 to $475 which is wild. I'm always happy when companies are forced to lift the veil a bit on their shitty practices.
