There's still plenty of Epic haters who forget that Steam was hot garbage when it was new as well, they forget that EGS (as it currently is) is basically only a few years old and Steam has a 10+ year head start. And I've come to accept that having 15 launchers is just part of PC gaming, there's no getting around it (and yes, I know GOG Galaxy and Playnite exist, they still fire up the launcher needed to run your game). Personally, I think competition is a good thing, Steam's sales have been pure ASS for years yet people still crush their servers every time a new sale starts for the same old prices that you can find better deals 99% of the time elsewhere, and I'm not even talking about grey market key resellers, GMG, Fanatical, Humble, etc. often have sales at the same time as Steam and for better prices.

Hate all you want, I'll take all the free games they'll give me
it's utterly astounding that so many people can make this much of a big deal over a company offering FREE GAMES.

What is wrong with you people? You make us all look bad, and make this site a worse place to spend time.
I'm not an Epic nor Steam defender but some of this "logic" is just ridiculous.

By your own admission you state Steam is practically a monopoly, then you cry foul when Epic has an exclusive, are you serious? Also news flash, Sony and Microsoft both have consoles for their systems and have done so for decades, are they also bad because you can't play Halo on your Playstation or Uncharted on your Xbox? And you think neither of them have thrown money at a developer for an exclusive, be it timed or not? Another news flash: yes, they have, many times. It's just business.

Epic also takes a 12% cut (or so they say) vs. Steam taking 30% making it more friendly to the dev/pub.

I don't have any issues with the Epic launcher having a memory leak after being closed, cite your source.

And lack of reviews isn't a big deal, there's thing thing we're all on here called THE INTERNET, we're capable of doing our own research before buying. To be quite honest I never read Steam reviews anyway (unless they're funny) I prefer to watch Youtube footage and hit up Metacritic if I'm on the fence about buying a game.

And also as you mentioned, Steam has been around 5x longer than Epic, they've had a lot more time to refine and polish their platform, yet when a big Steam sale happens there's a day 1 crush and their site slows to a crawl.

I use Steam on a regular basis, I own over 1000 games on it, even freebies like I snag on Epic every week. I don't hate on Steam, I don't hate on Epic, I also don't hate on the fact that we PC players have to have 15 launchers to play our games, that's just the way it is. If you like Assassins Creed, you're gonna need Ubisoft Connect. If you like GTA V, you're going to need R* Launcher, and then there's games that require Battle.net, Bethesda Launcher, and so on.

You're going to have to come back with far better points other than "Epic bad because dumb reasons" to make a valid argument.

3 years to put a checkout shopping cart feature. . . I'm all for competition, but EGS is not a serious competitor with the lack of features their 'store' has.
That said, I still grab the free games via the web (launcher is never installed) and have built up a nice library.

There's a very active subreddit dedicated to Epic Games Store hate.

They're definitely moving at a glacial pace implementing QoL features, you'll get no argument from me on that. I'm definitely all for the free games though, and Epic has never really given me a major reason to hate on them, a lot of the haters are serious nitpickers or "Steam or nothing" cavemen.
