I guess I just don’t get the hate for EGS. I’d rather have 12% of the price going to the middleman than 30 or 40%, whichever Steam was for smaller developers, I forget.
I’ll grant that it is an annoyance having another launcher but I’ll put up with it if more money goes to the developer and in the long run hopefully I get more games I want because my favorite studios don’t go under.
That said, these days I rarely buy a game at launch anyway so I can totally see waiting for it to come to Steam and getting it cheaper.
