That and the EU are looking in to epic as they break over 15 GDPR rules.
I see another $300 mil + fine coming.

Just get it on the MS store then rather then Epic store :confused:

I gather it’s coming out same time on both, just a year later for the other stores.

So not on Steam? I shall pass then.

I feel like I should be outraged about the Epic store shenanigans but frankly much like Metro Exodus I don't care and will get it, I want the game and I barely use any launcher features aside from well...launching the game. Will be getting it on release, that being said at least there is the option of windows store for those that don't want the Chinese spying on them (that's one of the big issues isn't it?). Or just wait a year.

Wait a year and they might have patched 10% of it

Need to wait for a good sale, so something like Far Cry Pimal going for around £9 now on Steam instead of the very high price of around £45, so just wait a year or two for that mega sale.

Even Chris Avellone doesn't think the exclusivity was a good idea:

100% will be as MS now own the developer but game not out until later this year so look around August time.

Well, the game is not due yet for some time and Microsoft owns Obsidian now so it sure will be there as well as on Epic. Check back later in the Windows Store.

Included with GamePass

AWPC · 9 Jun 2019 at 22:48

Its just confirmed as a launch day title on PC Xbox gamepass so you get it for £3.99 a month at launch in October. Shame the actual game looks less promising now they have revealed more info though

Interesting though... Having it as part of a subscription service seems to bypass the Epic store's exclusivity deal. At least the consumer has a choice now.

Well MS own the developer now so it was always going to come out on Windows 10 with Xbox Live integration. For £1 a month then £3.99 after its cheaper to have the PC xbox gamepass than buy new games anymore (as long as you keep the sub up & retain access). You also get access to so many other PC games its a game changer in many ways compared to the limited giveaways Steam now offer.

New trailer is out, and I have the feeling it looks like Fallout New Vegas 2

(which was made by Obsidian....).

I have had all sorts of issues just even logging into the service so Ive had to cancel. I'd love to subscribe but whats the point if I cant even log in...
I guess you have had no issues?

I am excited about this game and it looks like a good space adventure. I will wait for the reviews before committing to it but I expect this will be bought. I think the fact it comes out a few months before Cyberpunk will help it enormously too.
