So, let's see if I have this straight

Clearly you don't.

No one owes you a goddamned thing. Don't like a distributor? Don't patronize them. Just stop throwing tantrums you entitled, spoiled, selfish children. No one gives a shit about your personal opinion and it seems quite obvious that the mass majority doesn't care. If they did, business practices would change. Hint: they're not. You're in the minority, get over yourself.

Most people care about other peoples opinions on why or why not to buy/use a product and/or service or we wouldn't have personal reviews. That includes companies. If they don't have your business they'd like to know why and what they can do in order to get it. So no, you're really not getting it. Thanks for playing though and we have some wonderful parting gifts for you. Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.

So, let's see if I have this straight:

* People are bitching that a free game is on a different platform.
* People are bitching because a new platform has teething problems.
* People are bitching because the actual creators of a product are making financial decisions that benefit them.
* People are bitching, with no small amount of hand wringing and pearl clutching, that the demise of PC gaming is nigh because...reasons.
* People are bitching because they're not willing to patronize a distributor even though the distributor has a product they want.
* People are bitching that games are exclusives while completely disregarding that exclusives have been around since, literally, the advent of mass market gaming. Going all the way back to the earliest commodity home PCs (Amiga, Apple, and Atari) and consoles (Atari, Colecovision, and Intellivison).

Looks like Steam has people by the balls going from all these replies. Slaves to their large library of games on ONE platform unable to work without Steam. How dare competition to the monopoly try and give developers a better cut!

I just checked if i could make an account with a random email address and you know what? Your fucking correct.

I also requested to change my password on my account and never received an email to do so. (as of yet anyways)

But i have to ask what would be ones motivation of creating an account with your email address?

I know i cant create a Twich account with my email address, but thought it was because if you spell Riahderymnmaddog backwards you get God Damn My Red Hair.

I have no clue. I'm assuming they're some sort of burner account to do something... literally had "asdfsf asdjkqwe" as the name on the account.

Dude I constantly get emails, sometimes 3 a day of people trying to log into my steam account. Guess what. Not steams fault, Somewhere along the line I fucked up and now my email is on a list somewhere and traded by the Hax0r 31337.

You're missing the actual point I was saying. This isn't someone trying to get into MY account. This is someone who used my email address to sign up for an account, and Epic didn't even verify the email address on account sign-up... so there's just a random account with junk info attached to my email address. That's some crappy security to not verify the email address. Hence, why I won't touch them with a 10 foot pole right now.

So Nvidia is supporting DXR over RTX now. Probably because RTX suckes and you can run DXR on any DX12 GPU. Even AMD can get 30FPS with raytracing on DXR. Hope you all enjoyed wasting your money on them fancy RTX cards that offered nothing but a higher cost.

DXR is for the 10 series Pascal cards that don't have a dedicated RTX hardware core. they're not supporting it "over" RTX.

its smart a smart move, give more people raytracing access and hope the industry cares about adopting it.

Pc gaming is really just stupid any more. If you had a PS4 ,you could just get the disk from your local GameStop. Or just click it from the PlayStation store. I have a PS4 with a psvr, and everything just works,,,whenever I turn it on. I have the same games you guys have. But mine.....work. You guys are arguing and review bombing over where your going to buy the game. Why do people do this stupid shit when you could have a PS4 and psvr for a third of the price, and eliminate all this hassle and dumbassery.

One thing that has happened and it's stupid they wouldn't have it, is... some robot went around and registered many peoples emails before they ever did. So when they went to Epic to sign up "Email is already in use". And how did that happen, because they didn't then and they still don't have email verification when setting up an account. Who at their size does that anymore? It looks sloppy af and a little disturbing that you can use your own email that you like to.

With that lack of security foresight, what else lurks?

And this is the primary cause of my not using the Epic Store... I constantly get emails from people trying to log into the account, which was already made with my email address by someone in Russia (literally, the region showed as such), even though I never got a validation email for account creation. Sours me to Epic entirely.
