*this will probably not work with the Steam version
Yeah, this seems to be using the Xbox play anywhere system. So people who have a PC and an Xbox have thier saves synced. I’m sure it will not work steam.
I still won’t buy stuff there, but this is a far better way to make a storefront interesting than Epic. Instead of locking everything behind exclusive deals to try to force people to use your platform, they’re adding actual meaningful benefits to using their storefront. Cross ownership is nice. Game pass is nice. That’s how you provide competition.
i came to lemmy to escape the “fuck epic” circlejerk, thanks
Nothing about Lemmy would suggest people would like Epic anymore than any other place on the internet. Their exclusivity deals have the potential to upset anybody regardless of what website they post on, so while there’s absolutely a degree of hivemind hatred, it’s rooted in understandable reasons.
That being said, it’s disingenuous of that person to imply that Epic never gives any good reasons to use the platform, the biggest being the waves of free games they put on “sale” from time to time, though you could go down another rabbit hole of whether thats really something that would make gamers want to use the platform, or if it’s just a nice bonus people pop in to claim while still spending their money on Steam when it comes to actual purchases.
Fortunately, I have a Win11 boot drive for my Steam Deck.
Woah there hoss, let’s make sure it’s worth playing on one platform first.
That’s the screenshot they’re going with? Really?

Really, Mark Ruffalo? That’s the face you’re going with? God this movie’s gonna suck. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaZ73Yc75YE
pcgamesn is scraping the bottom of the barrel, they literally just find ways to say something with starfield in the title. This has been a thing since at least 2016 when FH3 came out.
It’s a cool feature, always worth some mention, but baffling that they feel the need to generate a whole article out of this.
