You didn't do that though. I said for a competitor to come along that they would need to sink tens of billions of dollars, like uber did. I fail to see how this is a ridiculous statement. Epic being incompetent doesn't have any relation to what a real competitor would need to do to gain a foothold with say a meager 25% of valve's share.

Epic didn't do enough to gain serious market share. They haven't given up but I don't see them making any inroads without further investment to the tune of tens of billions of dollars. They literally need to build up their platform to be substantially cheaper (e.g. by offering subsidies) while also making it fit for use (by spending way more money on quality devs.) They haven't... and nobody cares except folks like you who think they're a serious competitor as justification for white knighting for valve. lol
