I never minded Epic trying to take a piece of the pie from Steam. They put out money to compete. Why am I to blame developers for taking good financial deals. I mean guaranteed money can be a big thing. You've just taken a huge amount of risk out of your game release taking a big guaranteed check. Actually the part I never really understood is the size of the massive boner that so many have for Steam. It gets defended like a father should defend their children, and I think that's sick.
I wish Epic had done a bit of a better job on their software myself and actually made Steam take a hit and have to try. I still put it at #3 after Steam and GoG. They did a hell of a lot better job than garbage like Battle.net or all the bullshit the EAs and Ubisofts do. No, I don't want your shitty additional launcher for the one awful game of yours I'd play, and if you want me to buy a game from your direct store, I'd probably actually be interested if you'd offer a DRM free download that did not require me to use yet another launcher.
