People shit on epic because some time after leaving the gears franchise they took a massive investment from tencent which is essentially a tech arm of the Chinese communist party. Despite the claims of others tencent is a minority stake holder with Tim Sweeney holding 50+% of the stock. Tim also frequently makes claims that Epic is doing “x” thing because they care about the consumer when in reality is it’s an excuse to weasel in on market share. And trying to take a competitors market share is fine but the we care about the consumer signaling screams bs.
