Once you're realizing that they basically have unlimited digital copies anyway any sort of justification becomes a moot point and it simply becomes the issue of licensing.ДЄnother way to ensure a sort of exclusive position is to offer the game cheaper than the competition while offering a fast and easy way to purchase games. I don't hate on the Epic Store nor Tencent, but ensuring exclusivity in this way they do is very dangerous indeed. Even a bunch of puppies can come up with a better way to handle this, I believe. I agree, this is an absolutely fucking horrendous business practice. UT was perhaps the only thing that would make me a bit jealous, but that one got cancelled. Metro:Exodus was a huge waste, especially the AI, and seeing the rest of them on this list I'm not jumping on my bed any time soon. Seriously though, so far the list of exclusive games are rather mundane. The same dilemma GOG warned about when Diablo 3 came out, but getting these greedy developers/publishers to learn is like moving mountains :) Ah, I get your meaning.ДЇor the future that's actually the worst with DRM in games that are tied into such services, when in the future these services WILL get shutdown at one point, and you can no longer play those games. This is anti-competitive, anti-consumer bullshit.Д«igs: You won't be able to buy a physical copy of the Division 2 (on PC) that won't be tied to EGS / uPlay - you can still hunt down physical copies of Diablo if you so desire - though it'd probably cost more than the $10 that GOG charge. This is not whether you like Steam as a storefront or their practices. There are no alternatives for the consumer. You have no choice to pay the asking price of EGS or Ubisoft. What EGS / Ubisoft are doing here is killing competition.

3rd party keysellers compete on price (and it's far cheaper 90% of the time for me to buy from GMG / Humble / Fanitical / IndieGala than it is for me to buy on Steam directly) Physical copies can be sold off cheaply due to stores wanting to clear stock. How many true exclusives does Steam have (where you cannot get a key through a the developer directly / itch.io / retail copy or an authorised 3rd party keyseller such as Humble / Fanatical / Green Man Gaming)?
