Excellent that they don't engage in Nintendo level community hostility and at least let people who care about old games preserve them.
Stream goes one step further and actively maintains their legacy games playable. That is commitment.
Eh, i wouldnt say they are better. They explicitly pulled all unreal games off all stores ( steam, epic store, gog, .. ), killed all servers and when asked acted like unreal never existed. They are pieces of shit for doing it and they had no real reason in doing so imo..
