Last week’s big story in gaming was the decision taken by Deep Silver/Koch Media (and supported by parent company THQ Nordic) to make Metro Exodus exclusive to the Epic Games Store for one year. This made lots of PC gamers unhappy, mostly with Epic, which forced Tim Sweeney to defend the aggressive exclusivity deals made for the new store.

So far, we didn’t have the chance to hear directly from the developers at 4AGames who got caught in all of this. However, a long-standing 4A Games developer who goes by the nickname scynet posted the following message on the GAMEINATOR Russian board. Essentially, he pointed out that those who have been review bombing the previous Metro titles on Steam or are pushing a boycott for Metro Exodus due to the game moving on the Epic Games Store don’t know how hard the developers have been working to make a great game. Perhaps more importantly, he added that if they boycott goes through chances are the next Metro game may not be on PC at all.
