Fortnite kids will sustain them. Gotta darken those patterns just a little...

So what does Steam's revenue share look like in comparison?

This is great and it's not like they have shit revenue splits anyway as last I checked it was 88/12 which is by far the best around.

I've not used Epic games store much at all but I could see this leading to a proliferation of garbage on their service if they take the Steam approach of just letting anyone publish on there. This would essentially be an incentive to publish asset flip shovelware on Epic instead of Steam because "devs" get a bigger cut.

This goes along with their 0% engine fees, only surprising thing is that this wasn’t always in place

Honestly, I completely forgot I had Epic installed on my PC
