It's called Twitter!

But only the first time you open it, right?

Makes sense. I hope Nintendo uses these as game cartridges in the future. :D

A platform driven by customers, I would say this has direct impact for Amazon too, if it impacts the customer.

Fake reviews with false information or recommendation could lead to a lot of wasted money and disappointed people. Even refunding in mass. And probably avoiding to buy from Amazon. Well it's a bit dramatic, but I don't see a positive effect for Amazon with many fake reviews in place. I'm sure Amazon want them removed, but it is hard to do this automatically for millions of products and reviews. It's hard to find out automatically which one is real and which one is false. They don't want delete legit reviews either.

I have some questions: How fast are read and write operations and random access? What are the expected prices, once it hit mass production for the average consumer? And how long is expected to take until this happens?

In the past I have used Lutris for itch.io and Humble Bundle (and GOG), plus the additional games provided through Lutris scripts itself. So I would use Lutris over Heroic, as it supports itch.io and Humble and for the familiarity I already have with the software.

I know about Heroic, but I refuse to support a company that is so much against Linux. They purchased Rocket League and took away the perfectly functioning Linux version back then (and made it unplayable for a while for me). Why would I pay Epic Games money, if they don't support Linux, while Valve actively pays developers to program and help the Linux world of sides?

I'm not interested into Heroic Game Launcher. It does not address the problems I have with Epic and does not support everything Steam has, when I purchase it on Epic Games.

while our team has worked tirelessly to deliver the best experience possible, we have not achieved the benchmark we targeted.

In light of this, we still think for the long-term of the project, releasing now is the best way forward.

At least they admit the game is not finished yet. But sad another company pushes an unfinished game.

Maybe the reason is to make it easier to use it with other shops? Me as a Steam only user, I would prefer if the game had Steam Workshop support, but I can understand if they want to bring the mods to other platforms as well.
