This is great news indeed.
Saves me a boat load of money as I will never purchase a game that is a paid timed exclusive on the epic store.
I don't believe in this practice on PC and I will never support it. If you do support it, well, you were probably also part of the reason dlc is now
an acceptable practice as well.
Say all you want about Steam and their shit business practices. They don't have paid exclusives.
Who would of thought that a PC First company would say bend over, eventually you will learn to love it.
You take away my choice, I take away your money.
Thanks!

To be fair, I wouldn't necessarily call Epic a "PC First" company. In the time od Gears of War, the upper management was quite hostile to PC releases and were pushing the (albeit failed) "games will be only on consoles" narrative that started with the advent of XB360 and the PS3.

Well yeah but you can buy the same or largely the same thing in the other stores, bizarre comparison to make
I can't buy the near identical same game in another game store
