ManEater for Steam

- Start date
It doesn't release on Steam until Next Year. It is available on Epic Games for the PC on May 22nd and I think you can preorder it now.

Yeah, what CatLoverPlayer said.
It's worth getting on Epic or console right now and Steam later if you want to enjoy steam's achievements and stuff like badges, wallpapers, sharing, etc.
I'm pretty sure by nexy year I'll own 4 different copies lol

A year isn't that long of a wait, but if you want to play it now, there's absolutely nothing wrong with Epic's launcher

If I was getting the PC version I'd go with EPIC. I don't see any problem with them. I couldn't wait another year for this game.

Yeah, alot of people make up stuff about it just because they don't like exclusivity. None of what they say is true, just scare tactics lol

Steam has paid for exclusivity and early access premiers but nobody talks about that. Additionally, Origin has done this as well. Steams problem is that it's bloated with trash titles - quantity over quality, eh? It's why what little titles are pushed on Epic always end up being best sellers on pc, period.

as much as I hate having multiple launchers installed I agree with what has been said here. Epic is not a bad launcher at all and I wouldn't wait a year. Just tired of having part of my library on Origin, Steam, Ubisoft, Epic, Blizzard etc. I wish there was one good launcher to rule them all

Like what? Honestly I just assumed it was Valve games. I saw some article about Risk of Rain 2 but people say that was a misunderstanding. Love to see some examples. Like if we're talking about games that the platform is fronting development cost for that title I get it, but mostly it's a game that would be coming out and EGS coming in with a bag of money to secure exclusivity.
Either way my problem isn't even just exclusives it's particularly kickstarted games like Dauntless or Shenmue III that were promised on steam or even DRM Free but turned into EGS exclusives when they flash the money. Certainly the companies are at fault for going against their word but that specifically is the kind of stuff that makes me not a fan of EGS. I understand it's business and no one has any real values or morals but going after kickstarted games to me is just too aggressive.

Eh, there's quite a few indie games on Steam that Valve has paid to keep excusive to their storefront. The difference is nobody's talking about it, just like nobody talked about Origin paying for exclusives for their premiere program. Nobody talks about these things because it will thwat their opinions on Epic being the bad guy. Not sure if I want to list them (even though we have public proof), I have a feeling that it will just start an argument for future people who come here but I will say that it spans back to the times where Greenlight was initiated.
The process became more prominent ans intensified when Epic started stealing games away and now we see Epic giving games like GTAV and Death coming away for free. These aren't exclusives but Epic is giving them money to featured the game on their store free and help grow Epic's userbase. It seems to be working and the more people who use Epic, the more people are realizing the myths about the spyware and so on just aren't true.
In the end, I don't have an issue with PC game exclusivity. To be completely honest, pc exclusivity is far better than console exclusvity. At least pc gamers aren't forced to spend another $400.00 to play a game on the opposite side.

So you're talking about games from a system that is 8 years old and was closed down 3 years ago? Maybe the reason no one is talking about it is because of that. I somehow doubt the list is all that impressive either, nor does it compare to how aggressive Epic pursues exclusivity.
Either way my core issue with Epic was what they did with Shenmue III and Dauntless. If they keep making deals with kickstarter games they'll never produce enough goodwill for me to use their storefront. If they stop doing it I probably won't mind these exclusives so much in the future.

The reason why nobody talks about it is, like I said before, because it will prove that Epic is doing no different than following in Valve and EA's footsteps. Whether the list is long or short is irrelevant though, it still happened. Both EA and Valve have paid devs to feature their games on their store, even certain VR games.
Shenmue III, uggghh, that reminded me of Mighty No. 9. There was really no way both those games wouldn't have been bad. The devs are scammers to say the least.
