Why you so interested in killing Valve and GOG?

They both did it before Epic did.
Yes, comical that Valve secured exlusivity of an already-on-sale third-party game to try to drive support of their nascent digital store more than a decade before Epic did it and you fanboys are all just okay with it because you weren't there.
You all try to pretend that Epic invented this sort of exclusivity on PC, but it's been a thing for years and years before they even opened their store. But go on and bury your head in the sand even further about it, I'm sure GabeN will be your bff if you do it hard enough!
