Because Steam’s DRM is entirely unobtrusive, it doesn’t require online-only gameplay and the customer experience is excellent.
When Epic tries to compete with Steam they don’t look to make a better user experience, instead they bribe developers for exclusivity deals to force people on their platform if they want to play a game on release.
You are stating stricty your own opinion when you say “customer experience is excellent”. Read the documents of the legal case against Valve, the documents show Valve to be an extortionist.

No Internet,no games… I’m burning all these games onto M-Disc media… I can sell games for bullets and food in the apocalypse!! Woo!
I mean that doesn’t really factor in… Electricity isn’t going to just vanish from existence. Just need to find ways to generate like hydro, battery, Solar.
