Mange er rigtig sure på Epic Games for tiden, og det skyldes hovedsageligt at firmaet har sikret en række prominente eksklusiver til Epic Games Store. Netop derfor lader der til at være en række teorier og spekulationer i omløb designet til at skade firmaets omdømme, såsom at de deler brugerdata med den kinesiske regering fordi Tencent har anpart i Epic Games.
I en besked på Twitter svarer Epic Games-chefen Tim Sweeney igen på disse anklager.
"I support everyone's right to complain about tech industry stuff. Epic's store, with exclusive games and a spartan feature set, is a fine target for ire. But please help separate facts and opinions from the lies about spyware and foreign control"
"I'm the controlling shareholder in Epic Games, and have been since 1991. We have a number of outside investors now. Tencent is the largest. All of Epic's investors our friends and partners. None can dictate decisions to Epic. None have access to Epic customer data."
Så kan vi vist også lukke den.
