I think someone posted these issues before. Only points 2 and 5 express concern with me. Beyond those, its just another platform. Who cares?

Lack of privacy/security is definitely an issue of concern, though, personally, the "ninja-ing" games for exclusivity deals right before release (especially when advertised to be sold on other platforms like Steam or even GOG, too) is another point that pushes me away from using Epic. Yeah, PS4, Xbox, w/e have exclusives too, but those were specifically developed for exclusivity and not signed away for an undisclosed amount of money right before release. At least that year long wait for it to be released elsewhere gives time for bug fixing, possible dlc/updates to released and so on rather than playing a day one release of garbage hell. 

TL;DR the idea of what they're doing just doesn't set well with me.

Also, while I use Battle.net and Origin (and Uplay, I guess, since I got a free copy of For Honor but needed a Uplay account) on top of Steam, I prefer to try and keep everything in one spot. It's just another game store for my games to be spread out on, but given I'm already using multiple launchers, it's more a secondary concern if anything.

But yeah, I just don't like the approach they're taking. The idea of a "fairer" revenue cut for developers sounds cool and all but the way things have been handled makes me hesitate from wanting to use EGS.
