For food safety standards probably. For an otherwise healthy person it's probably good enough.

I think there was a beautiful 2 week period where games had open worlds that weren't just dead empty space everywhere.

He wants access to massive user bases for fortnite without having to pay anything to the platforms. That's why he's so intent on attacking Steam, Apple and Google. Steam would be a massive increase in revenue even with a 30% cut going to steam for epic, but mutual benefit isn't in vogue at the moment.

Yep. You can't outrun your fork.

Republicans are incredibly unpopular with pretty much everyone that doesn't own and wear maga gear. Apathy can't really explain a 30 point swing.

You can sell keys, but it's still part of the steam ecosystem, so you can't sell in game purchases without using steam as the processor.

It's still the steam ecosystem when you sell steam keys. Why should a game be able to use steam to distribute their game that they sell for a free or reduced price then sell micro transactions without paying steam? If you don't want to pay steam a cut don't use their store or distribution.

On the plus side, the guard also killed a good number of the people they were supposedly protecting....

That was still some of the best multiplayer gaming I've ever played. While it was loot crate based, it was far more customer friendly than the modern equivalent.

By what definition is the 30% cut high? It's the same percentage for Apple, Google, and Steam. Brick and mortar is generally around 50%. Amazon is a large range, but 30% is roughly average or even low. eBay charges less, but doesn't do anything other than facilitate the transaction. Epic charges less to small developers, but that's also mostly marketing.

It's not about the epic store being a success. It's about getting fortnite on steam with little to no fees being paid to steam. Just like the lawsuit against apple.
