I think the only thing Epic nabbed off my wishlist is Foregone. That's a pretty slow showing for them.

There's also Godfall, but Gearbox made it sound like Epic actually helped with development on that, so I'm willing to give them a pass on that.

Epic is publishing Surgeon Sim 2, to be fair. That's exactly the sort of thing it should be doing, not using Steam Store pages and crowdfunding campaigns as window shopping platforms.

I made mistake, Bossa is independent.

I doubt, they all thank Epic when they announce exclusivity.

Bossa have to recover from the failure that was Worlds Adrift, 5 years and more of development (And god knows how much money) throwed away without even releasing the 1.0
It`s not surprising that they`re looking for a fresh instant bag of money

Surgeon Sim 2, on one hand, I'm surprised they didn't go Steam just because meme games clearly are far more successful on Steam than any other platform (save maybe Switch).

On the other hand, it's an indie sequel and those are almost always cursed to fail (The Forest devs were smart to leave the 2 out of their game's title) so I can see hedging their bets.

Either way, not a game I really would have ever played outside of a bundle.

I dont actually know what those games are made for.

Goat Sim and Surgeon Simulator are both..... games with shit ass physics, broken gameplay and really feel more like "Streamer" games "Oh, so wacky".

Epic is actually publishing the game for a change (the trailer doesn't explicitly mention this, but Epic is listed as the sole copyright claimant in the legal blurb at the end), so I presume Bossa didn't have the resources to self-publish.

Goat Sim I can see the appeal of, it's simple enough that it's easily enjoyable for young people. My nieces fucking loved goat sim. I think there is arguably some lineage from it to Goose Game.

Surgeon Sim however is just too fiddly and hard that I can't see anyone that's not a streamer playing for more than 20 minutes at a time.

" We've got even more great games coming exclusively to the Epic Games Store on PC: "

Top of that page.
I don`t think that Epic has ever said that their exclusives were temporarily, to me it sounds like pr words placed carefully to hype the store (I mean, it makes sense even tho it`s shitty, just like what happens when a game gets announced ``only`` for PS4)

Hope Wolf isn't a permanent exclusive. (Though I don't think there are any?)

Thank you Epic for deflating any enthusiasm on new game announcements.

It will just be a temp exclusive again though.
