    Aside from the fight they put up against the App Store and Play Store duopoly and granting fans permission to distribute a Unreal Tournament 2004 launcher, Epic has taken the “PR disaster” route at every step of the way.

    Competition is good and I appreciate having the Epic Games Store and their freebies, but after ~8 years it’s still barebones. Only recently did they get around to implementing gifting games.

    They could have earned so much community goodwill with making an official launcher for Linux and providing better Easy Anti Cheat support. Could’ve easily taken out a chunk of Steam’s playerbase on Valve’s home turf, the Steam Deck.

    Unfortunately the game got hammered with negative reviews at release on Steam because the Friend’s Pass was missing. It was at ~45% positive reviews when I checked a few hours ago. Now that the pass is live, it has recovered to ~71%.

    Personal thoughts: Played the demo yesterday. Controlling the character was a bit clunky but it felt like a great spiritual successor to Little Nightmares 1/2. I’ll probably wait until all the DLCs are out before getting it.
