Epic laying off >1000 employees

Severance packages and paid health care for those affected. Cloud be a lot worse.

They getting ready to show how much costs were cut while doing a shit ton this fiscal year. All of this is to appease to the shareholders and the CEO yearly performance bonuses.
 
I witnessed my game libary (with two games, but hey!) doing this in the past:

It was CDP.pl that was shut down few years ago, it was connected to GOG and CDPR (even older than them). It had games in way better prices compared to GOG, offline installers etc.

Now there is nothing...

But that wasn't Steam though.



See this is why I always thought it was dumb for Epic to fight Apple and Google so hard. This is why everyone just pays the 30% and keeps it moving.

A smaller cut for the storefronts means more money for publishers and less layoffs/price hikes. Tim was really fighting the good fight.
