You have to wonder why the video game media is all out defending Epic Games, its ties to the Chinese government and their notorious obsession into spying to anyone and everything.

The Epic Games Store is actually a front by Valve to make Steam look better in comparison pitting it against a single competitor with a worse client and more ruthless behavior so nobody will question the fact how many games are in fact Steam Exclusives by covering it up by having people say that Epic Exclusives are a bad thing.

normalfags probably wouldn't mind Epic Game Store if they had at least the same functionality as Steam at launch. They only recently added a search engine which shows how rushed the platform was initially built upon. That's why they went the strong arm route of dumping money on developers to divert revenue to them. Even if they finally get it up to the same level as Steam in a year or two, they still have to deal with the Chinese involvement and the security issues they've had of being hacked.

Unless you're funding the company to build a game from the ground up for your online store, PC exclusivity is stupid. Developers should have as many options as their customers to buy where they want to buy and sell where they want to sell. We don't need a Launchers War on the PC platform.

>All this ties into the ongoing narrative that the Chinese government is creeping into digital spaces and spying on western internet users through technology and hardware. This conspiracy theory has only intensified since President Donald Trump waged a public trade war with China and accused the nation of perpetuating one of the "greatest thefts in the history of the world."

>Anti-Chinese sentiments have deeper roots in the video game community too, as Chinese players are often associated with industries like gold farming in online MMORPGs like World of WarCraft and hacking. That's not to say hacking and gold farming aren't realities in China, but rather the current climate in politics and entertainment regarding China have been intersecting for some time.

>As video game companies (and entertainment companies at large) look to court Chinese audiences and gain access to a lucrative market, there is a sentiment among video game consumers and movie goers that entertainment companies are cynically chasing the Chinese Yuan.

>The discussion around Blizzard's Diablo Immortal mobile game announcement, for example, was surrounded by the question of how big a role Chinese players factored into Blizzard's decision to develop a Diablo mobile game. The answer is probably a lot, but there's a difference between legitimate criticism of a business' creative decisions and xenophobia.

e61db5  No.16344642

Here's a sparknotes summary of the article. My own opinions in brackets:

> Steam has dominated for years, now Epic games wants a chunk. Some people are mad

> Epic games takes 12%, as opposed to 30% that Steam takes. Epic games will make customer reviews strictly optional for developers as well to stem toxicity.

> Epic made Metro: Exodus exclusive to Epic store two weeks before it was to launch on Steam.

> Valve said this was unfair. People say that competition is good, but Epic's version isn't fair.

> Review bombs on Steam happened.

> People are upset because Epic Games is keeping games off steam and also "enticing away games from Steam" [the article doesn't say what it means by this, and I don't understand what it means here]. This is "unfair" competition.

> Epic store doesn't have a lot of games or features.

> People care about valve trading cards for some reason.

> Epic game store is suspected of having spyware, which Epic denied, calling it just analytics and survey information, and that the game scanning your Steam library was a programming mistake, and was supposed to only happen if you select for it to import Steam friends.

> Also, there are conspiracy theories about Epic and Tencent selling user data to the Chinese government. The article calls these fears "outlandish", even while acknowledging that it's "not entirely outside the realm of possibility, given that the Chinese government likes to buddy up with big companies, and some, like telecommunications giant Huawei, have been accused of colluding with the Chinese government in pursuit of espionage" [Kotaku has no idea what the word "outlandish" means].

> "Tencent also owns portions of Ubisoft, Activision Blizzard, Riot, Discord, and Paradox, among others, and there’s been no funny business to speak of"

> Tim Sweeney claims that Tencent has no access to Epic customer data because it is not a subsidiary but an investor.

> Epic store is an inconvenience because it is a few extra clicks. PC gaming could be a mess of tons of different game stores if everybody flees from Steam.

> Steam is good because it has unified PC gaming, but it's never been a monopoly, because a few big games use their own launchers.

> Discord also has its own store

> Upsetting Steam is also bad because if another big player takes control, you have to re-buy your games

> People have their perceptions slanted by being used to Valve and Steam

> Steam works mostly through impartial free speech and free market, and the recommendation system reinforces this by trying to be unbiased.

> Epic games is gaming the system by locking down exclusives in their own store.

> The fair market isn't actually usually free and competition isn't actually fair inside Steam. People take advantage of what they can, get lucky, rely on gimmicks, and try to game the system, often getting away with it because of Valve's policy of little involvement [Realistically, Valve's policy of not giving a shit and not wanting to waste money doing any work at all if they can avoid it].

> The competition is unfair between Steam and Epic because Epic games is relying on locking people in with exclusives rather than having good features. Steam is unfair because it coasts along because people already use it rather than by actually being good. Everybody wanting to compete fairly is left in the dust because you'd have to abandon the games you already own or use two different platforms to switch over.

> There is no fairness in competition on this level and it's foolish to expect it, because when you get that big and have big players with massive amounts of money, they never compete fairly, because fair competition makes you lose when you are pushing against a decade of momentum or platform exclusivity.

Honestly, the article isn't really that bad. It's mostly dredging up the obvious points, but they are fair points. It mostly just says "Steam is shit and nobody will leave it because it's where their things already are. Epic store is shit, but at least it's trying to be a competitor to Steam, and it competing by pulling exclusives is the only way to pull customers away from Valve at this point in time." It doesn't come off so much as defending Epic or Tencent as just saying that everybody sucks and that fairness isn't possible anymore, as well as naively dismissing the ethics issues that Chinese companies (and the Chinese government) historically have.

The only thing it really fucks up on is sweeping under the rug how much the Chinese government and Chinese companies work at international espionage and data-mining (ie. even if Epic games isn't sharing data with them intentionally, it doesn't mean that Tencent isn't trying to milk whatever they can out of them), and by nearly completely ignoring the obvious conclusion that if all game stores are shit, we should just ditch game stores, not try to give power to a shitty one that takes power from the shittier one.

Steam has been gathering info on ppl for ages, since the start, they dont even tell you they do

if this is what it takes to curate the store, i dont care, id rather have this then shovelware on Steam

also funding DEVELOPERS directly and paying their losses is incredibly good thing for developers, its the best of any worlds for them

you got to be fucking moron to expect competition to have feature parity on day one, it cant happen with scope of these things, online store is not just another app

It's NOT a botnet either.

Both of them are NETWORK SOFTWARE, Network service querying Windows NETWORK LOCATION AWARENESS service is them working as intended.

Both of them use integrated browser that use IEframe… which is why it's querying IE because if not it wouldn't work.

Shcore.dll is AGAIN something from WINDOWS (8 and above) not from fucking epic, it's the library used to STREAM DATA from the outside upon a machine with fucking windows installed.

This is all perfectly normal behavior for any NETWORK program that is run on windows.

It's insecure as fuck but it's just how WINDOWS (8 and above) works.

Also the more hilarious aspect of EPIC having the same store prices despite taking 18% less, meaning the publishers don't give a fuck about the customer and instead stuff those 18% extra profit in their own pockets.

>>16343352

That unkempt toilet brush looks exactly like your typical stereotype /leftypol/ dweller. He's also know for stirring up shit and being an obnoxious faggot with pretentious pseudo-rebel opinions.

>>16343908

Brand loyalty is cancer, but it wont change anytime soon since the overwhelming normalfag majority will throw their money at the next (((trendy product))) as fast as permitted by body physics. EPIC is trash but so is Valve, and it has a ridiculous amount of retards shilling for it because according to them, that lard ass Gabe Newell is the holy patron of vidya that can't do wrong.

>>16344288

Check out Yuri Bezmenov's videos as already mentioned by another anon, he explains in detail how a large part of western civilization is absolute cucked by the Zionist government and their various agents in many societies across the world. It's called indoctrination and there's little you can do about it except for re-education. But how many of the stupid cattle does want that?

>>16344708

Of course they do flock to EPIC, and why wouldn't they? Last I heard the exclusivity deals allegedly contain a guaranteed profit clause, which means you make your cut regardless of how shitty your sales number are. Those exclusivity deals are a shitty anti-consumer practice but absolutely genious from an economic point of view. As seen with Mexodus, despite the combine vidya community bitching, it sold perfectly well due to the excessive consumerism culture as many people simply don't give a fuck about principles or standards and buy into exclusivity, pre-ordering, day1 DLCs and all the other annoying crap.

I know this post is a jest, but if Marxism is Communism by conquest, then the Free Market is Communism by consent. Because like Communism, the free markets can only “work” with opening your borders to as many people as possible, and preferably to the whole world. And, like Communism, this includes opening your borders to troublemaking foreigners which you cannot ban and prosecute to any meaningful amount without violating their free market rights. You can only ignore, dismiss, downplay, and/or demonize any evidence which supports the kicking out of meddling outsiders, while embracing those same outsiders in a show of multicultural solidarity.

Nothing about this makes sense. Communism requires redistribution of wealth and capitilism explicitly requires protection of personal wealth. Neither of them have anything to do with immigration.

That intrigues me even further. The fact that pirates don't have an issue with this tells me a couple of things. First of all, there's a chance it's embedded in the Steam API, not the binary, since your friend has to use a legit Steam API library in order for his cheats to work, because otherwise he wouldn't be able to connect to legit servers and his cheats would be mostly pointless. Pirated Steam games always go through a fake Steam API, sometimes even going so far as to make custom GUIs for "pirate Steam."

Second, it seems that this might actually be a measure to prevent cheating specifically rather than piracy.

Nah, I did that in the past and never got this message. Usually all that happens when you do that is:

>1. the .exe simply won't run

>2. Opens and quickly closes, without throwing any error message

>3. "Invalid steam_api.dll" error message

I figured the most likely scenario for that valcrypt error to show up would be a badly hacked steam_api.dll. Still I don't think it's real. or if it is, it doesn't exist anymore in current versions of steam_api.

Fucking nobody likes the guys paying you and no amount of screeching here or anywhere else on the internet for that matter is going to suddenly make people think "well golly gee all that money I spent to play Metro on Steam that was just pissed away I guess I'll get over that because some guy says a chink botnet isn't actually a botnet". And you know what? I'm just going keep shitting on you bugmen truth or otherwise because who honestly gives a shit at this point. Any and all ammo is fair play and just adds more fuel to the fire. Keep an eye on your dam by the way.

Are you that faggot who lost his shit because he specifically dares talk about spreading his info to other sites? I'm pretty confidant if he didn't mention that at all you'd keep your mouth shut.

Those working on any entertainment industry are all faggot abominations. Human beings don't work on this shitty industry.

No matter how "free" a market is, at one point, one group will grow bigger than the others, and they will take all freedom away from the market.

As with anything in life, the only good group is your own. Every other group must be eradicated.

Unless you have a standing desk, a buttplug like in 2nd pic is going to chaff your ass something fierce within an hour. You need something with a bar base that's going to fit comfortably between your buttcheeks for long periods.
