So...download with epic and launch via steam as a non-steam game. What's the problem?
The issue is not the launcher. The issue is the exclusivity. It demonstrates an anti-consumer mindset. The GOG, which people here have demonstrated acceptance of, is yet another launcher, the launchers less elegant to steam, and everyone is just fine with.
It will probably work fine but it's not an officially supported use case of the software. You can't exactly submit a ticket to Valve if something doesn't work right because the game isn't even on their store.
Fucking hell, don't hurt your back carrying that goalpost mate!
The person asked what the problem was and I explained what the problem was. Why are you butting in with this nonsense?
That guy has a weird hard-on for the epic games store. There was a post about it last month and that guy was saying the same things.
