I’m glad to see less exclusivity deals for the Epic store, but I could never really blame devs for taking the money. From what I understand, many were offered enough to make the game profitable even if they didn’t manage to actually sell any copies on the Epic store.
Those kind of deals are a really nice safety net for indie devs, hopefully they’ll get by ok without them.
