1. And now Im not even considering getting it

2. Good for them hopefully this makes dlc and stuff cheaper

3. The epic games market place is good for gaming because it provides healthy competition, forcing steam to develop new ideas to bring in the players who chose another platform. This is good for gaming people and it should be supported

4. Yeah… I was gonna give it a shot but I'm gonna have to pass if it's not on steam

5. Uplay…nuff said buy it from the source

6. Good of them to let us save our money then. Thanks Ubisoft!! Crazy games coming out on March and good thing there is 1 less to buy.

7. The smart thing to do would be to make it availbale on every platform possible. Even shitty u play

8. hih, Gladly I'm not buy this game, because I don't want to.

9. Another PC launcher I need to download. This is becoming a joke.

   This is why you own a PC and PS4.

10. EPIC GAMES IS TRASH

11. Although I have no problem with simply downloading a different launcher, I have to wonder if this was a good move for Ubisoft.
    There are plenty of people for whom this is the final push to skip the game.

12. Should start #no steam, no buy

13. More and more games skipping steam? Honestly steam needs to update their policy on taking such a large cut from games tbh, These AAA studios pulling away is going to impact steam more and more and force change, I know people want stuff to release on steam but Valve Stagnated the service big time, only significant good addition is the refund system tbh

14. Ok this is epic

15. Bad move

16. Seems everyone has a store now. Kinda over turning on my PC and having 100 different stores open up. Also, doesn't ubisoft have uplay? Can't I just buy a game anymore?

17. In that case I’d definitely wait for review.

18. Waiting on Epic Games to snag Fox away from Disney at the last minute just went everyone thought the last pen had been placed down lol.

19. Sold through ebin games.

20. not buying then

21. Horrible business decisions seem to be common in this industry.

22. Good on epic for bring more competion to the pc market. i dont mind picking up the game on a different client. after all, i am getting free games from epic everh 2 weeks

23. When is the beta?

24. Lol they shot themselves in the leg here

25. Damn, they making moves

26. Whaaaaaaaaat?!?

27. You think the fortnite kids will play the division 2? I don't think so.

28. The epic uprising has begun.

29. I can already see more and more game companies ditching steam

30. I love rivalry it's too good for us

31. Fortnite Kids cant buy this game anyway…

32. Blasphemy

33. Wasn't going to buy it anyway.

34. Its like they want their games to fail. Why not both? Ffs.

35. People hate change lol ?
    Judging by the comments

36. Yup if you skip steam….i skip you

37. Valve really need to start make hl3 left 4 dead , portal 3 …. first is actvision , now its ubisoft mark my word next will be squarenix and others 🙁

38. Why not sell on both if the base experience remains the same on either

39. They don't like what steam is doing by refunding peoples money when they don't like the game.

40. Vavle needs to start make games give us hl3

41. And that's how it all started….

42. $5 says that their skipping it cause steam lets people refund games.

43. Steam becoming indie platform more and more

44. No Steam, no buy!

45. Competition is a good thing.

46. There's go any chance of this game being successful lol

47. O hope ubishit realises this will turn off potential consumers from buying the game
