I get a feeling EGS lack of feature development is a Tim thing. Like he decided what the minimum viable product was to beat Valve and there's no way they'd fund copying feature after feature that Steam has. That'd be admitting he was wrong

Also that talk where he was talking about Unreal Engine 6 being way more tied into Fortnite. Like make a game that's standalone or make one that's in Fortnite. Or both. Players in Fortnite can pay for your game. Fortnite metaverse is the primary future of EGS. Not copying Valve. Doing something only Epic can do. Somehow get people who don't like Fortnite to open Fortnite to play games that aren't Fortnite in Fortnite

They can't even fix their stupid engine to make it not shit on graphics anymore. Seriously, UE5 makes great graphics look like shit because of a bajillion forced effects and filters, like temporal antialiasing.
