Epic is not successful? They’re a privately held company with a valuation of like $32 billion. They are the developers of Fortnite, and like 75% of all console/PC video games are built in their engine.
I guess my question is how the fuck do you define successful then?
They’re a privately held company, so afaik don’t have to release public earnings statements.
If you’re talking about the financials made public as a part of the Apple v Epic lawsuit, I’m pretty sure they just show that Epic Game Store isn’t profitable, not that Epic isn’t profitable.
All your links say Epic GAME STORE isn’t making money, which is exactly what I fucking said. Epic the entire company can be profitable while the storefront is not.
Big hint, Fortnite in game purchases and Unreal Engine license sales print money for Epic. You’re willfully ignorant at this point bro.
You do realize what the difference between a company and a specific business line is right?
No just one of the most profitable in the world.
Epic is not “successful”, by any standard.
I know exactly what I’m talking about. I just don’t know what you’re talking about.

Well. Being profitable would be a good start.
