Nothing more disappointing to me than seeing a game I might enjoy… and then it’s only available on PC on Epic Games store. Why can’t it be available on Epic, Xbox game store and Steam? It’s so annoying, like you have no choice but to use Epic… which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.

They have a rival it’s called source 2. That’s what CS, Dota and hl:Alyx used.
I mean, they have Source 2, but to call it a rival before it’s even made it to third-party developers (Facepunch is effectively second party) is a bit of a stretch.
Sure, but pretty much nobody but Valve is using Source 2 for anything, though.
Yeah because it’s still in development and not yet available. S&box is one of the “games” already using it in the background. When it releases to the public, it’ll be just as popular as Source was - especially with the pricing strategy of “the only thing you need to pay for it is the steam fee” which is what, $100 per game?
A $100 deposit you get back if you actually sell your game and make money off of it. Technically not even a fee.
Is it? I last read about their pricing when greenlight was a thing and they said it’s for the shop / adverts / all the cool things you get for support of the game. Didn’t know they gave back the $100
