    This has nothing to do with China. Epic has been talking shit about Google Play and IOS store for years. The main issue is that Epic wants to put the whole Epic Game Store on mobile platforms (currently only on pc). So they would be the distributor for all games created with the Unreal Engine. They can’t do that if they are giving 30% revenue to the operating system. This move is purely Epic’s own decision, China has nothing to do with it.

    Name one developer who’d voluntarily pay 30% of their revenues for digital distribution. This has nothing to do with China.

    Apptopia CEO knows his stuff. I use their product and the mobile data insights I get from it are pretty deep. No one will be closer to mobile data than Apptopia.

    Sounds to me this is how both companies get consumers to spend money on both of them. Consumer based proxy wars
