Imagine using this energy for actually productive change, over being angry that you're being slightly inconvenienced.
Pretty much what happened is it wasn't advertised that you would need an epic games account to play the multiplayer, and people are angry about it for some reason. Likely because it's Epic, not because they had to make an account, though knowing Gamers they probably would be pissed about about having to make an account outside of steam too.
And it's funny because the one discord server I usually hang out on that has pretty chuddy people on it largely had a reaction of "Sure it sucks, but there's a lot bigger fish to fry in the games industry."
They recently freaked the absolute fuck out about Helldivers requiring a PSN account. it was about
integrity in games journalismplayers in regions without PSN account access being locked out but, well...I mean letting people play the game for like a month and then telling them to fuck off (without the prospect of giving them a refund at the time) was pretty shitty
