    When you’re required to use their “store” to play the games too, then it’s a platform. And an isolated one, at that. Imagine you could only buy a game AND PLAY IT at Walmart.

    Platform exclusivity is part of Epic Games’ problem. Not the sole issue, but a big one.

      The platform is the OS

      And you aren’t forced to use their launcher, that’s a Valve thing
