I confirm that I’m never going to buy it then.
I’ll buy it when it comes to GOG then.
The game wasn’t even profitable after a year as a result of not being on Steam, according to the article. Pretty interesting
I guess they don’t want it to be profitable then. Maybe over the next 10 years it will break even on Epic.
Epic profittability is on Fortnite; there will be lot of skin based on Alan Wake franchise and, also, Fortnite ads everytime you launch AW2 form their launcher etc.
…as for Alan Wake franchise itself, well it goes in the
epic games store marketing black hole
mfw i don’t pay them money
That’s okay, since I am never coming to Epic Games. Seems only fair.
Sucks for Remedy then, since they won’t be getting my money.
That’s fine, I will never purchase Alan Wake 2 then
It’ll eventually be included in a giveaway anyways like Control was. So if I haven’t bought it by now I’m fine waiting for the giveaway.
Epic actually financed Remedy’s development of the game, as opposed to swooping in at the last minute to offer a timed-exclusivity deal. In that case I was fine buying the game on their platform if it meant the game got to exist at all. After all I do not expect Valve to sell their games on another platform than their own.
Don’t get me wrong: I’d rather the game was sold on Steam, or even better, DRM-less on GOG. I did wait for a number of those timed exclusives to find their way on Steam or other stores (Borderlands 3, Kena, Journey, Control, Hades, etc). It’s a shame that so many people will not get to experience AW2 because of its delivery platform, because it’s a damn unique game.
This is the bullshit that makes me hate Epic games. I want Fortnite to die already so Tim Sweeney can eff right off.
A exclusive war only one person is waging…
Shame, I’m never buying a game from the Epic Store.
Oh well.
That’s what they said about red dead redemption too
Laughs in Heroic Launcher
Oh well, there are other games to buy.
