The funny thing is, their fees aren't high. You just got duped by Epic's propaganda that 30% was high.

In fact, it's vastly lower than the previous alternative, which was in store and took almost twice as much more of the cut.

Even today, 30% is standard for a digital eshop (Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, Apple), except Valve offers more services and benefits than all of them combined.
