Epic Games Store will not allow low -quality games

Until you have time to move away from shocking announcements for the Epic Games Store, we throw the thrush into the fire. General manager Epic Games Tim Suini (TIM SweENEY), consciously or not, made an injection towards Steam, saying that before the publication in the Epic Games Store, the games are serious quality testing.

PC Gamer employee talked with Suini About how Epic Selects permissible games for egs. The head of the company first explained that the policy of the publishing team is very different from the part of the team that is engaged in the development and distribution of the Unreal Engine engine.

According to him, UNREAL Engine can use anyone, if only the projects made on its basis were legal. "We see his [engine] as Microsoft Word", – said Suini.

But as for the publication of games in EGS, here Epic adheres to quality standards similar to those that the cinema can apply in relation to films that it shows. That is, to the store Epic Only high-quality games are allowed, regardless of their scale and age rating-it can be both a children’s indie and an adult AAA project like Grand Theft Auto.

Porn games, games, deliberately bloated by unnecessary files, games that are almost entirely made of Asset ready in advance, and simply shocking entertainment in EGS will not spread. Suini He wants employees Epic We played every game before making a decision on its publication in the store. Nevertheless, the process of certification as on consoles does not plan to use.

Recall that at first the service Valve He did the same, avoiding frankly bad games to the site. However, later, the GreenLight platform appeared in Steam, which allows us to decide on the release of users themselves. Now in the service Geiba Newella (Gabe Newll), almost any game, whose authors paid for the publication of $ 100 can get through.

This led to the fact that Steam flooded thousands of low -grade entertainment, a huge number of which are released daily. Because of the blurry rules Valve Regarding the permissible content, the store made their way, for example, a game about rape and a mass shooting simulator. Both projects were later removed by the company from the site.

Besides, Suini commented on the fact that Epic Games Store is digging in Steam Directors. We will remind, earlier this was explained by the fact that EGS thus imports friends from Steam, but does this only after the consent of the user. The general director also said that due to a hasty development of social functions for Fortnite EGS is imperfect with Localconfig file.VDF.

Valve then, of course, expressed her discontent. Suini agreed that to climb into the private data of users, especially another platform, is bad. Therefore, soon EGS will apparently leave Localconfig.VDF at rest. But until the user agrees to import his friends from Steam, in this case, the service Epic Copes the file, drives the identifiers of friends and uploads them so that the gamer can connect with their friends who have done the same.

The best comments

Typical Epic tactics – pour the mud of a competitor. At first they told what terrible percentage greedy Valve is taken, they do not allow the poor publishers to take a break. Now it is. It is worth noting that even The Outer World will be released in the MacroSoft store, so the struggle goes exclusively with Steam.

You understand that when Capcom claims that Re2remake was sold on Steam more than a million times Stopgame.ru/newsdata/37430, these are the real numbers with which you can work, especially since the Japanese shared the number of copies of 4,5,6,7 sold … In such conditions, having almost accurate sales figures, you can compare the successes of the new game and the previous one, as well as the dynamics of sales. When someone says “we sold 50% more copies than the last time”, the first question “and last time there was how much?"And suddenly Galenkin is silent. Deep Silver is silent. Tim Swini is silent. The indicators of the daily online in EGS are silent (because they are not). That is, it is a figure in a vacuum that does not show absolutely no-ha-ra. With the same success, Galenkin could go out and say, “We seized here, asked our users and found out that 3 times more boys and 1.5 more girls played in exodus than a solitaire for the previous month”.

Oops ..

So there are no numbers. 2.5 times how much? And if LL sales in Steam amounted to 50k? Oh … what, 125k of copies sold is not so impressive, though? But even if we are talking about 200k, then 500K for the road in every sense of the game, positioning itself as AAA, is a total failure. Once again, I remind you about the OBSER Musier Giimimo with "6 times more than the 1st part only in our service".

Porn games, games, deliberately bloated by unnecessary files, games that are almost entirely made of Asset ready in advance, and simply shocking entertainment in EGS will not spread. Suini wants Epic employees to play every game as ideally before making a decision on her publication in the store. Nevertheless, the process of certification as on consoles does not plan to use.

Sorry for what. Suini, you’re normal at all. Your team has not even been able to check the Axiom Verge performance before publication, you can imagine how these cripple and hands will test games when you come to you every day a hundreds of requests. No, seriously, when they announced a manual moderation system, I joked that all the moderation would come to the fact that the applicant simply amusing more to pass, but even my idea was not as stupid as the speech of Timi ..

No Shit Sherlock … It is only said in the context of “how many more copies of exodus were sold in the epic-worthless compared to the number of copies (pre-orders) of exodus in Steam”. This figure would be more relevant and at least somewhere could be started somewhere, although again it was not an indicator from the word at all, since the main cash register, which means the main sales are still the first time after the release. But since Galenkin did not announce even these numbers, his speech is a complete bullshit and he thoroughly crap.

In addition, the company reported on the successes of Metro: Exodus on its site. The circulation of the militant over the same time exceeds the Metro: Last Light in Steam in 2.5 times

This is a halt manipulative statement.
Firstly, we do not know so many times the outcome sold better than Last Light if he went out in Steam.
Secondly, the metro 2033 was not very complained in the West, when she came out, which clearly did not affect the number of sequel awaiting, unlike Lest Light, which very much even came in.
Thirdly, we do not know the number of new audience attracted marketing.
In the fourth, I I don’t know what budget the games had (if there is a link, I will ask you to give). The only thing I sunk superficially was that the budget of Last Light was “10% of the budget of competitors” (a lot of articles, google very simply). How much specifically these 10% is incomprehensible. It is 10kk or 30kk? This is only for development, or also for marketing. I also could not excavate the budget of the outcome, so how successful the project is to judge by this “at 2.5 times " – incorrectly.

Already the whole Runet so asks the question (and not only Runet, I think), why is not the actual or approximate number of sales, but the vague “more than that of the previous part”? Indeed, why the exact figure is not announced, with which version the comparison was made – starting or reducing, why there is no comparison with sold copies in Steam? Moreover, they say they “we sold more than 2.5 times in copies than on Steam”, it would be real. At the moment, this formulation suggests that someone was in fact crap, as it was with the Musiere Guimo, who compared the number of pre-orders Division 1 and Division 2 only in Uplay, even casually indicating how many pre-orders of Division 1 was at all)

I’m not sure that I completely understand the system of these very recommendations, but having pressed several times “not interesting”, such games from the recommendations disappeared from me like a class, remaining only in “popular new products” (but this is in design)

ay Krasava, Ai Plusikov tore off) Now it is relevant.
FORNET may not like many, but certainly you can’t call a low -quality product.
But now in the trend to water the gualnoe epic so that any stuffing will come in)

Please give at least one study proving that piracy is harmful to sales (taking into account the fact that many players, if they really liked the game, after passing the pirate or in the middle of the process, buy a license).

You can also be glad that The Sinking City will cost 2400 rubles on a PC … This is such a “competition” ..

I will not justify the exam, but the games there are quite high -quality and not second -rate. At least there are "medium", not lower.

I xs … but this situation clearly demonstrates that no mythical price parity (which is not) prevents the sale of games in the "epic-octuse" at a price different from Steam. Especially if there are no prices in Steam and you can break any price … After all, “honest and healthy competition” in action, “we will only benefit from this” ..

And yes, in the news about a new pack of eczes, I praised the epic for porting the Cage games (the game can also be controversial for me, but it will be interesting to someone), in this case they are really well done. It is a pity that together with these games, they still insolently forced to postpone the release date to the Control PC and The Outer World ..

This is called a substitution of concepts. The usual marketing move, designed for people with a mediocre level of development and it works quite.

It is incorrect to compare the statistics of Last Light 5 years ago (it is obvious that the fan base is many times less than now) and Exodus, which came out 2 months ago (I wonder if the physical copies were considered in which the EGS keys were forcibly stuffed?)

I saw the past news and wanted to say that the Epicians finally took the first normal step towards healthy competition (I am talking about Kejj Kintso), but then I saw
Exclusions Epic Games Store have become:
• The Outer Worlds,
• Control,
• The Sinking City.

Recall that exclusivity lasts one year – at least this applies to most of the above games.
However, the authors of The Outer Worlds from Obsidian Entertainment tried to justify themselves, saying on their Twitter that their action-RPG starts with the version for EGS in Windows Store. Many players are already refusing to buy the coming game Obsidian. In addition, the company reported on the successes of Metro: Exodus on its site. The circulation of the militant over the same time exceeds the Metro: Last Light in Steam in 2.5 times. And once again I was convinced that they are still freaks. Do anything (except for improving their own store), if only the game would not be released in Steam.

Business is done behind closed doors. For the public they said that it works well for it, namely, dynamics.

I doubt that the same Microsoft for no reason ran to make temporary exclusivity in EGS and their store is simply because of the conference alloys.

Temporary exclusivity of which. The Outer World? Most likely, certain terms of the contract worked, according to which the Tow itself may not be distinguished by T -shirts, but they could not throw its owners through the men’s child -born organ of Obsidian, and most likely it was not the T -shirts who had voted, and Obsidian, seeing a contract in which it was written “to delete all from the list of sites for a year” gently hinted to the epic, that the thick nuances of the petty -cooked already had already them in one place.

Today, Epic pays good games to be sold with him, and tomorrow normal games will pay EPIC to get up in a row with good. Unfortunately, this in our world can be not just a sarcastic commentary.

In Steam, really is full of shit-game such as visual novels made from standard ases, and hayntai puzzles, some even without censorship.

In my VASYANSTORE, the game is sold at 1.4*PI/(the answer to the main question of the life of the universe and all that)

Anyway, the first two parts, as I remember, are not so well sold in the United States, and now the Yankees tasted the European Gamdev in the form of a witcher, fading light, Kingdom Come and other and the other, and such a hmm, but it is delicious!
It’s as if the witcher 1 2 were sold in Steam, and 3 in Epicrynka and oh passing which epic are successful!!1
