These are all editorial and brand judgments. A store could choose to make no such judgments and host anything that's legal, or choose to draw the line at mainstream acceptable norms as we do, or accept only games that conform to the owner's personal beliefs.

This is a shitshow all around. NFT's are a scam, and no different from MTX or lootboxes really. Microsoft Mojang spitting out word-salad platitudes like "inclusivity" and "long term joy and success of our players". EGS/Tim not forcing views on others, while selling out to China and contradicting himself (see above nitter). Steam fanboys completely ignoring how Valve isn't any different either.

I don't know enough about Tim Sweeney to understand how he's being hypocritical here.

He contracts game studios to only release on their EGS platform, thus depriving consumers of ways to buy and play the game they bought.

In the tweet he says that devs should be free to decide how to BUILD their games, not that they should be free to decide how and where they can buy and play them

Yep. It's hypocritical in their overall ethos.
