I was pretty hyped for the new prince of persia game (the lost crown), but come to find out it’s only available on ubisoft’s proprietary launcher or epic games. Nope, and nope.
I just want to have it available on my usual storefront, Steam, but it’s been decidedly omitted. As a long time fan of the old games, this kind of hurts. Especially since many of the others -are- available on Steam.
I wonder if/when it will come out for Steam. These platform exclusivity deals need to die.
Edit: It’s also available on several consoles, my post was just from a pc gamer’s perspective.
So, Steam exclusivity is fine, but other stores exclusivity isn’t?
Wrong. I never said I wanted it to be exclusive on Steam, I just want it to be available on there as well.
Why is Steam pretty much the only one it’s not available on? The fact that it’s on so many other platforms just makes this exclusion even more illogical.

Ubisoft are a poor struggling indie company after all.
Not at all to do with Epic paying devs for exclusives.
Oh and btw both Epic and Steam charge $100 to publish on their store, so it’s not that.

Grow the fuck up you child. A bit of sarcasm and you’re crying about “aggressive”?

Yes you do.
It’s pathetic that a grown adult cannot handle sarcasm thats not even directed at them without crying and playing a victim.
It’s definitely a money thing, but I don’t think it’s in the way that you are suggesting. I think it’s a matter of them making more money (somehow) by excluding Steam. That’s pretty much the only platform it’s not available on.
Gog exclusivity would be cool, epic not so much.
Did he say it should be STEAM exclusive?
