Látható, hogy az Epic előre kitalálja miért kér vagy fizet 1 éve exclusiv-ért. Amiket írtál tényleg úgy van, még ha réteg is a játék a nagy számok törvénye alapján biztos nem szűkösködik a bevételből.
A Troy-ra is van már time-line.

Epic stratégia:
Lehet a DLC is, de szerintem főként nem ez.
A részükről ez az egész egy befektetés. Dől a pénz a Fortnite-ból, amivel valamit kezdeni kell. Úgy döntöttek, hogy nyitnak egy Store-t és ennek a pénznek egy kis részéből futtatják fel. (Azért az elég sokat elárul az anyagi helyzetükről, hogy épp most perlik be az Apple-t...)
A felfuttatáshoz az kell, hogy minél több aktív felhasználójuk legyen. Ehhez kellenek az exkluzívok és az ingyen játékok. Játékonként nem kis összegekről beszélünk: Control exkluzivitás

Ami az EG stratégiáját illeti, kezdem kapizsgálni, hogy mit művelnek.
Ad egy alap játékot amit úgy is DLC-ni fognak (mert manapság már mindent DLC vel értékesítenek tovább) Így kölövi a Torrentes verziók mellé töltését. ( Vagy letöltöd kompletten torrentről és 2x telepíted a gépedre a DLC-k miatt vagy hagyod.) Kilövi a Steam és más kiadók esetleges megjelenéseit, (Exclusive megjelenés 1év stb.) mert nem fog passzolni hozzá semmi csak a saját kiadású alap játéka. Így szépen rávezeti a játékosokat, hogy ha pár euró is de fizessenek a késöbbi DLC megjelenésekért.

Persze ebbe benne van az is, hogy a játékipar belekerült egy könyörtelen spirálba (fejlesztés,kreatívok,programozók, kiadó, forgalmazó, határidő stb) ami nem szül jó eredményeket mert mindenkin nyomás van. Főként ha kevés az értékelhető programozó és grafikus.
lásd. a szakértő beszélget róla: ... innen egyenes az út hogy még a többi kiadóval is harcolni kell ... nekünk meg leesik pár "A" kategóriás játék, ingyen. Lehet durcásnak lenni, de ez a fajta verseny valahol nekünk is jó lehet. Talán kiszűri a piacról az szutykokat ... talán.
