Here's Darwinia going steam exclusive back in the day. Pretty scummy Epic behavior isn't it?

I've been there during this time and this is the first time I'm hearing of this game as well as Valve doing this. Thanks for bringing it up. Any more examples?

You're welcome!

I'm not sure of any more examples, just like you I've only heard about it lately after Epic spawned. I'm NOT hoping to find more of this scummy behavior from Valve, but I wouldn't be surprised if I did.
