The best comments

Kingdom Come Deliverance passed the first part in the USS, and I want to say that the disgusting service. Firstly, achievements never fall out on time (at the end of the game I received a trophy of gluttony when I played 50+ hours).

Secondly, any misklik in the Unified State Register store leads to some sharp transition to the purchase of a game or a support page (I noticed this in the game library, annoying specifically)

I’m generally silent about the cloud saving – they simply do not work (although he constantly writes that synchronization was successful with the server, etc.D.). They to Steam as a VK to YouTube

The results of EGS came out faster than a video version of the results of the year from SG

I once took a freebie, bought some games on sales with coupons (Deathstranding, RDR2).
But because of the lack of development of the store, I do not even want to go there and for more than a year as I have not been there.
And the purchased games have a desire to bite in Steam.

I understand the statistics of Fordnight smeared the entire store?

I would not mind if they added support for a wide number of gamepads with thin tuning, as in Steam. I don’t like that you need to use third -party.

More Remote Play and Remote Play Together, I often use the last.

Finally processed an already broken interface and added more information to it. It especially infuriates me that I can’t delete the game from the collection (for example, added by mistake) being in another collection.

Family access. On Steam, I can add up to 5 people from the same region and share my games with them. In GOG, I generally get a DRM-Free version of the games, and in EGS one version for myself loved. No one can play my games anymore for the same money, by the way.

Functional overly. In Steam Overlai this is a combine. Browser, player, notes, social functions. And these windows can be left imposed on the game, for example, always hold a window with notes on the screen.

Social functions. Forums, manuals, communities, activity. I constantly use this. In case of problems, the first thing I go there is there. I find partners there for the game sometimes. I look at what games they buy and add my friends to the list, many games find that way.

Fashion. Steam has a https://n8casino.co.uk/ convenient workshop that supports a small number of games, but still it is and works fine.

Screenshots. Not all games work normally with screenshots from the system, but I need them. Recently, Steam added the opportunity to shoot video, which is also not in EGS.

Change in status. Invisible, do not bother, not in place, that’s all.

Restoration of the library of installed games. This is generally some kind of circus. In Steam, you just add the desired disk as a storage for games and that’s it, he will find everything and determine everything. And in EGS you need to dance with renaming folders/transferring files and twitching buttons, for each game! If I have 10 games, then I need to conduct this rite 10 times!

This is enough for me to get started.

Clearly, 2/3 this is the windows, and the remaining 1/3 is the rest of the lovers of free handouts.

And again, you are directly boring from criticism of the EGS, although recently you affirmed the opposite, they say "no difference to me".

The results are good of course, and when they fix the interface?

Remote Play, Family Sharing and an independent emulator of the gamepad, which gives you to configure the gyroscope in general in any game is the first thing that comes to mind.

In fact, Epic begins to annoy the fact that there are no obvious attempts to catch up with Steam by capabilities, nor to find something of its. The integration of achievements is only in a small part of the games, the ability to create a screenshot is absent, about fan creativity, that is, the community is generally silent! Naturally, by virtue of the provisions of the Steam outsider, I can replenish through Alfa Bank, and Epic does not.

There is but. There is no development of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

This is like an excuse? Release the cart when the competitor has a bug, so -so undertaking.

I am always ridiculous to read about the fact that nobody needs the functionality of Steam when you myself have to run the exam through Steam so that Remote Play and my dualsense work in games, in which there is no native support.)

It is forbidden. The first is a really important part of the functionality, the second directly contributes to the promotion of the product, since communities are fan art and guides, which sometimes can be very useful without leaving the box office.

Thus, Steam creates an environment, eco system, Epic gives only basic functionality. There is a game and there is an opportunity to launch it.

And where is the exam? Isn’t the developer to do this? Here, relatively recently added achievements to Far Cry 3.

I’m talking about something there inside the game or still about the integration of acovrovka into the store system?

Larok remains stall, albeit with a billionth turnover.

I was neutral at one time and took Epic along with Steam, but there is a problem. I can make a discount on a lot and tolerate, if I see development, I see the pace, I see that the bosses and developers do not spit on the product.

But I do not see the point of endure if the bosses do not care. What is the problem in general? What is Steam excuses if the question should be why they are not developing? It would be one if Steam would let dust in the eyes, but had no real functionality, but there are finhtifs and useful, necessary options.

Money? PIPP carries loot, so bosses do not care? Contracts and interest on UE5 developments? Class.

So even Gabe himself spoke about this. And about pirate translations in venerable years, and in principle about piracy. I perfectly remember the video where he from the beginning to the end broadcast that with piracy should not be fought with prohibitions and locks, that is, coercion and scoring about theft.

Because our life is not perfect and I am not going to spend thousands, these are just thousands on the right to launch the desired product for leisure.

Another thing is exactly what Gabe said. Discounts and functionality. EPIC has discounts and distributions, minimum functionality. And for me a service that spits on functionality spits on customers, consumers.

about everything, I agree except cloudy conservations. Personally, I have no problems. I repeatedly reinstalled Windows and in general, I completely changed the system twice and installed games from the EGS like the same KKD1, the conservation was sucked no worse than in Steam

Oh, the founder of Valve is already a nonsense. In the Soviet "Queen of the gas stations", by the way, the same. idea. The heroine organizes a bunch of additional service at the gas station station. Of course, not everyone needs him, someone is enough to do not matter who, at least the robot of Ilona Mask inserted a gas station in the car and okay, others need.

And, if you recall that the shops of digital goods are a little not a gas station, but a more creative environment ..

One of the founders and General Director of Valve, who develop computer games and their digital distribution.

Steam ([stiːm], with English. -“steam”)-an online digital distribution service of computer games and programs developed and supported by Valve.

I downloaded several games in my life not because of an uncomfortable service and other nonsense, but because I did not have money

This is not the case at all, but the fact that a convenient service is able to attract users with both a price policy and the functionality, which in your words you do not need. Therefore, I compared your minimalism with piracy, since the only difference is that you pay money.

If I cry at Steam, I get not only the legitimate launch of the game, but also a lot of other, necessary, and not cosmetics on the profile.
