I get that Steam is where everything and everyone is at. And that the user experience and functionality is best there BUT having another player to try an compete with Steam is a good thing, right?

If anyone can try, it's the Fortnite Bank.

So, why the hate?

The only way I know anything about the games I buy is by reading the store page. If I have to go looking for the dev's website, it's because something has gone wrong.

I feel like I get a pretty good idea of what a game is like from reviews and discussions.
