Its also that EGS is terrible.
The most recent "feature" they added that made a difference, was the ability to view my own library.
8(?) Years after launch it still operates like a prototype I'd cobble together in an afternoon
Plus we all know that if EGS ever achieved market dominance, they'd enshittify in no time.
That was surely always the plan right. Lure users with good prices and free games, grow the platform, then extract profit.
But the plan didn't work, and so after all this time they're still stuck on "best behaviour" mode trying to lure users who aren't coming.
100%
The plan was just to keep throwing money until they trampled the ecosystem and came out on top, well this didn't work for shit.
