I've bought exactly three games on Epic over the years: The Old World, The Division 2, and Ghost Recon Breakpoint deluxe edition. Regional prices for EPIC are better than Steam's, and sometimes they have promos while also giving away coupons. I bought Breakpoint for like 10% of its actual real price on Steam, and The Division was something like 70% off as well. If I'm not mistaken, The Old World was epic exclusive during early access, when I bought it. On the same time frame though... I probably bought 60+ games on Steam.
