What makes Epic “the most unethical game vendor”? Real question. The criticism I always see is “I already have a library on Steam and don’t want two clients”, which is understandable, but it!a hardly unethical to just exist.
Edit: Damn, people real don’t like you asking totally fair and reasoned questions about the accepted narrative around here, huh?
They did engage in buying out studios to make their games exclusive to their platform. One prominent example was Rocket League, they bought Psyonix and made them discontinue macOS and Linux support, along with delisting the game on Steam
Yeah, that is a pretty shitty, anti-consumer practice. Still not entirely sure I’d give them the award of the most unethical, but that only speaks to the absolute shittiness of corporation, really.
Ubi has been putting in a lot of effort in their race to the bottom lately. Apparently someone in Ubisoft looked at EA and ActiBlizzard and thought “Pfft amateurs”.
