No idea, I refuse to buy it. The first one was good.

It's on steam now
I am aware. They're still not getting my money
If you refuse to buy on Epic, you send the message that you don't like to buy from Epic.
If you refuse to buy after it hits steam, then you're just 1 of several billion who didn't buy the game.
Why would you continue to not buy?
No, you have it backwards. If people buy the game when it goes on Steam, that tells the developer they can double dip buy going Epic exclusive then releasing at full price on Steam a year later with no repurcussions.
The only way to make the publisher learn to not go Epic exclusive is to not buy those games at all, even after they are brought onto other marketplaces
