There are mistakes being done unintentionally when you develop complex software.
Take my example, Humble showed me Bandai Namco game that I could not even get in a bundle. So out of 10 games, I received 9, while other regions receive 10.
That is even worse than Epic's (probably honest) mistake.
Humble isn't trying to compete with Steam or Epic, and they don't engage in the anti-consumer practice of paying off developers for exclusive access to games.
I'm aware of the complexities of software development. If Epic seriously wanted to compete with Steam, they really should have tried harder to provide a better service instead of trying to buy loyalty through free games and exclusivity contracts.
