I am against monopolistic competition practices and that includes exclusivity deals and predatory pricing.

And as far as I know, Epic does this more than Valve or GOG. Granted, Valve doesn't need to, because they are already the main player, but they also mostly avoided enshittyfication for now.

Granted it is hard to enter a market that is already dominated by another company, but instead of doing those business practices they could offer a better service.
