It just demonstrates to me that it was never about being locked down and was always about them taking his money
That's why I deleted my Epic Games account when they got bought by Tencent. Though their support was not happy I was exercising my GDPR rights and it took a lot of back and forth with them before they finally deleted it.
Epic did not get bought by Tencent. Tencent owns 35% of the company's shares. Also, if you were trying to avoid companies that Tencent has any ownership/shares in, you would have almost no one left as they have bought shares in just about every major gaming company out there.
Doesn't matter to me if they didn't completely buy Epic. I'm out. And luckily I don't care much for major gaming companies any more. I'm sick and tired of the same uninspired garbage riddled with micro transactions coming out these days. Indie games is where it's at these days. At least those developers seem to love what they do and respect their players time. They also aren't afraid to try something new
Tencent has ownership in a lot of those too.
I am not scared of Tencent. I deleted my Epic Account based on principle. The Tencent buy-in was the straw that broke the camel's back.
Right? When it started I felt it was a lose-lose situation: I might enjoy Apple products, but I do see the need to open them up at least a bit, so them winning would not be good. Epic winning on the other hand would give Epic something to stand on to criticize the greed of the 30% cut of Apple and Google, while apparently being fine with the same for EGS or consoles…
