The one thing I like about them is they recognized why people really wanted to stick with steam: they have a large established library and don't want to bounce back and forth.

They took that and said "ok we'll give you free games every week until you have a large library here and won't want to leave!"

Jokes on them, I now have a large library of completely free games on epic and still use steam for the games I want to buy because I refuse to support their exclusivity bullshit.

Epic feels like a kid's toy compared to steam imo. Just overall less usable and dumbed down.
