I support opening up Apple's ecosystem, but I don't support Epic. They say they want to give user's the freedom to choose, yet they took a video game I purchased away from my chosen storefront (rocket league being taken off of steam)

Where's my user choice Epic?

Doesn't negate the point.

Epic would have exclusives not available on other stores.

Google does the same shit. I bought Shadowrun: Dragonfall from the Play Store and it was later removed without any warning or trace. Not coincidentally, that was the last money I will ever spend on the Play Store.
