"What's 100% of zero? Like, who gives a shit?" New Blood boss unimpressed by Epic sharing more revenue with devs than Steam
New Blood Interactive's Dave Oshry expressed skepticism about the Epic Games Store's value proposition, arguing that its free giveaways primarily serve as advertising for games on Steam rather than driving direct sales. He criticized Epic's failure to improve its store experience over a decade, despite offering a more generous revenue share to developers than Steam. Oshry also discussed GOG's preservation efforts, acknowledging their value but noting a lack of compelling reasons for users to choose it over Steam.
