Epic Games as in Tim Sweeney’s Epic Games?
What are the package names so I can block them from installing please
EGS has some integration with UE so if you’re buying marketplace assets it’s easy to keep them updated and to add them to projects. Since UE can compile to Linux if you’re running Linux, this is a move that makes Linux a more appealing OS for game development.
Sure, it’s all stuff you can do manually. But the sweeter you make the pot the more regular users you attract to your OS.
What is the benefit of attracting more regular users to an OS?
Oh no… It’s stupid 😞
I’m not interested in Epic’s malware. Nor will I install a Linux version of GOG. I don’t want that proprietary trash.
Apparently unreal engine may work better in linux now, tho.
It is a big deal. If Epic changes some API and breaks Heroic, it is your problem for using an unsupported third party application. If Epic breaks their official client, their QA manager has a problem.
I’m actually worried about that too.
😭 good golden gods the year of the linux desktop is finally upon us.
Linux versions of Epic games store and GOG galaxy is still a big win for everyone
Exactly as in the post. I already have Heroic, so who cares
Eww Lutris.
