True. If the Epic Games Store really caught on, I'm sure they would eventually move that percentage up.
How about another negative about it: when you install an EGS title, it makes a shortcut on your desktop... and that's it. It does not add anything to the Start Menu, and there is no option to do so. You also can't disable the automatic desktop link. I do not leave much of anything on my desktop -- I want it empty except for a couple of icons -- but do still use the Start Menu to keep track of what I have and run things (particularly those not in launchers and such but sometimes anything), so this is really annoying to say the least...
If you want a new desktop shortcut for a game you can make them in the Epic launcher, but still they are desktop shortcuts only, if you want them in the Star Menu you'll have to manually move them there yourself. How user friendly.
