After the Borderlands 3 incident, not surprising.

Probably referring to the 6-month timed exclusivity on PC for EGS that Borderlands 3 went through.

And the fact that Epic couldn't cobble together a content delivery platform that supported preloading before BL3's release.

And the fact that they used Steam essentially as an advertising platform until the TOS was changed.
