Fw: [新聞] Epic說他不賣色情遊戲或膨脹軟體
Epic Says Its Store Won't Sell 'Porn Games Or Bloatware'
https://tinyurl.com/yxdwzadr
It’s been a big day for the Epic Games Store. During its GDC keynote, Epic
announced a boatload of new exclusives (including Detroit: Become An Epic
Games Store Exclusive) and a deal with Humble. Momentum appears to be on the
store’s side, with Epic now touting strong early sales and a more curated
approach than that of its main competitor, Steam.
Love or hate the current barebones Epic store, you can’t deny that a) it’s
making waves, and b) Epic execs sure have been talking about those waves.
Today, during the keynote, Epic Games Store head Steve Allison boasted that
Metro Exodus—which became a last-second Epic Games Store exclusive,
prompting an unusually pointed message from Valve and review bombs from Steam
users—sold 2.5 times as many copies at launch as its predecessor, Metro:
Last Light, did on Steam. “It’s really about your games, and not about the
store you sell it on,” said Allison.
This, in conjunction with Epic’s 88 percent revenue share (as opposed to
Steam’s default 70 percent), will likely make for intriguing news to game
makers worried about backlash and a potential loss of exposure that, some
feared, could result from moving from Steam to the Epic Games Store. That
said, Epic did not provide actual sales numbers, and it’s worth noting that
Last Light came out in 2013, during a different era of PC gaming. On top of
that, Exodus was a much larger production and got a marketing push from its
publisher to match.
Going forward, Epic said it intends to focus on quality over quantity—or,
more precisely, quality over anime porn. “We’ll have a quality standard
that doesn’t accept crappy games,” CEO Tim Sweeney told PC Gamer. “We’ll
accept reasonably good quality games, of any scale, whether small indie games
to huge triple-A games, and we’ll take everything up to, like, an R-rated
movie or an M-rated game.” He went on to draw the line at irritating or
illicit apps that piggyback on others—bloatware, as they’re sometimes known
—and other overtly explicit or low-quality games: “A GTA game would be fine
to us, but Epic’s not going to distribute porn games or bloatware or asset
flips, or any sort of thing that’s meant to shock players. The PC’s an open
platform, and if we don’t distribute it in our store you can still reach
consumers directly.”
In contrast, Steam has adopted an (almost) anything-goes policy over the past
year, with exceptions stemming from games that are “illegal, or straight up
trolling” or, evidently, people getting really, really mad at Valve. The two
companies are increasingly opposed in their approaches, recently coming to
figurative blows over usage of users’ data, as well.
The Epic Games Store is still very new, having only launched in December of
last year. It’s managed to lasso a handful of high-profile exclusives, but it
’s still relatively lacking in games and features. It remains to be seen
whether Epic can make good on its promises and maintain its momentum, but it’
s certainly shaking things up.

標題的膨脹軟體 (Bloatware) 是指佔了記憶體和空間但用戶用不到的軟體,沒意外就是
在酸Steam功能太多。
簡單來說就是Epic的負責人Steve Allison在吹噓。
抓幾段來看....
他提到Metro Exodus銷量是前一版Metro: Last Light的2.5倍。但Last Light是2013年於
Steam上架的遊戲,那是另一個PC時代的事了。
總之因為我們Epic很棒,所以一定會有更多遊戲廠商過來。
然後是這段....
Going forward, Epic said it intends to focus on quality over quantity—or,
more precisely, quality over anime porn. “We’ll have a quality standard
that doesn’t accept crappy games,” CEO Tim Sweeney told PC Gamer. “We’ll
accept reasonably good quality games, of any scale, whether small indie games
to huge triple-A games, and we’ll take everything up to, like, an R-rated

flips, or any sort of thing that’s meant to shock players. The PC’s an open
platform, and if we don’t distribute it in our store you can still reach
consumers directly.”
展望前程,Epic說他會專注於品質而不是數量,或著更精確地說品質優於動畫色情。「
我們有著不接受任何蹩腳遊戲的品質要求。」Tim Sweeney如此對PC Gamer說道。「我們只
要相當優質的遊戲,任何等級的都可以,從小型獨立遊戲到大型3A遊戲,到任何我們能佔
有的,像是R級電影或M級遊戲。」他想要和那些刺激性或色情apps劃清界線,像是那些大
家都知道的膨脹軟體或著是明顯低品質的遊戲。「GTA類遊戲對我們來說是好遊戲,但
Epic不會上架色情遊戲或膨脹軟體又或著套模複製 (asset flips),及任何會嚇到玩家的
東西。PC是個開放的平台,就算我們不上架這些遊戲,他們也有方式直接聯繫到玩家。
」
總之就是我Epic好棒棒,Steam好爛爛的吹噓就是了....
