This is just shitty clickbait journalism. A more accurate headline “Anticipated Fallout 4 mod won’t work on current Fallout 4 versions” wouldn’t get the engagement and clicks that a more provocative bullshit title that indicates that Epic won’t let you play it does.
The mod includes everything needed to downgrade other stores’ copies. To the end user, the idea is to make it as transparent as possible. This will work on Steam (with some work) and GOG (with less work), but not Epic(at all). Calling out one storefront unnecessarily would be “provocative bullshit” but in this case, it matters.

It more sounds like the mod won’t work on the most current version of FO4, and because you can’t install older versions on Epic, it won’t work.
That’s a shockingly misleading title, even for vidya game “journalism”.
Considering video game journalism is literally the worst and most incompetent form of Journalism it’s not all that shocking
The headline is still true, I’m not sure what you think is misleading about it
Things can be true and also be misleading.

So… What you’re saying is that it won’t work on Epic?
