> You came into this discussion with a very strong opinion.

Yes, the insanely strong opinion of "recite facts instead of injecting opinion". IE, the original post was a bunch of inflammatory nonsense that wrapped "I don't like store exclusives".

> Why are you making indictments instead of asking questions?

You may be excited to learn my first post was exactly a question.

> In other words, this deal would not have happened without Epic reimbursing Ubisoft for the potential losses and fallout, and this kind of malicious anti-competitive is what bothers me.

The anti competitive behavior of "Have more gamestores than Steam"?

I don't really think we're going to get anywhere with this conversation. I'm sorry you do not like store exclusives. I don't think Epic has done anything wrong (as it's just how business works) in this specific instance. We can disagree.

The top comment was diplomatic and mine was not. I'm sorry if blunt words hurt any feelings.

>Why are you making indictments instead of asking questions?

Instead of refuting the points being raised here you immeidately resorted to calling any critical comment "toxic spin".

>The anti competitive behavior of "Have more gamestores than Steam"?

So lemme get this right. We need to have more game stores......by making games available from fewer game stores. If that how competition works?

>I don't really think we're going to get anywhere with this conversation.

Agreed. You could have summed up everything in one sentence "Epic can do nothing wrong" and that would probably sound less apologetic.
