“They charge developers too much!”

So you should be able to undercut them, right? Right?

[–] Soup@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Exactly. Epic doesn’t even appear to really provide a particularly good service so you’d think a more bare-bones company could get away with charging less, and yet.

Not when the Steam Terms of Service prevents them from charging less on other stores.
