Comment on Steam now warns about Early Access that have not been updated in months.

It might have something to do with Epic being partly owned by Tencent and Disney, but it more likely comes down to the philosophies of their CEOs. Gabe came from a corporate shithole and runs with the diametrically-opposed view that good service = loyal customers = profit. Sweeney, not so much.

I doubt Epic would give out the number of free games they do if they were public. Investors hate anything that takes more than a quarter to give returns.
