Hey, more people installing the Epic Games Launcher is probably the win. Platform neutrality, or its specter, probably wins for us.
It’d be much more offensive to our sensibilities if it were like the situation on iOS where Amazon is available, but “no way will we let you buy a Kindle book unless you reopen the store in a web browser.”
(Because yeah… apple sells all the books I want to read, in their very cool bookstore that I haven’t seen in more than half a decade.)
At any rate. Anyone serious about godot is probably compiling it or getting the official release artifacts. This seems like something Epic probably couldn’t justify turning down as window dressing for the unreal store. I’m for it anyway.
