Hello, I am close to release a Godot made game in Epic Game Store.

As you may know, they offer for the 6 months 100% revenue for me (its caled "Epic first run"), but there is a catch (except the store exclusivity):

It requires integration with EOS, so players will have to confirm a dialog like this:   .

Do you think that would be a big dealbreaker for the potential customers (the requirement is written in the specifications)?

On the other hand, it would allow me to use EOS peer2peer connection and lobby thing and make some leaderboard, but I was not planning for that.

This game is supposed to be just as a test bed for my upcoming main project, that will also have a P2P multiplayer. So I currently dont plan to release this game elsewhere, but dont know for the main game.

According to this part of EFR agreement:

the EOS integration requirement is permanent, even after releasing elsewhere, which would definetly make many steam users upset.

I asked also in other subreddit, more anti-epic-ish, so it would interesting to see also your opinions.

BTW: sorry the typing error in the title.
