The reviews are a part of the community, even if they’re not found in the “Community” part of Steam.
But yeah, EGS has many failings, pretty much all of which were pointed out right at the start. They weren’t improved upon because Epic don’t want to deliver the best possible experience or promote the capability of the PC as a gaming platform. They just want you to buy digital shit, get bored of it, and then buy more digital shit at the lowest possible cost to them. Effort costs money so they won’t make any.
When they first launched, their whole main message was “it’s a cheaper cut for the devs!” Perhaps I’m being selfish, but that’s not a message that resonates to me as a buyer.
Hint: most of us don’t get hot and bothered about exactly how much margin Walmart lets Tyson take on their chicken nuggets, so trying to apply that message to games is weird.
Well, at least in Tim Sweeney’s twisted mind that’s how it works. In reality, spending $100,000 to have a developer actually support the year would do way more to get long term customers on the store while coating a pittance jn comparison to how much EGS spent on exclusivity deals.

Steam is the only platform I can think of where I actually still trust the review
