To be honest on the PC it makes zero difference to me. I mean, I can always do with less storefronts to install and it annoys me not being able to see all my 'to play' list in a single place (though I'm currently employing a really ridiculous work around) but yeah, it's certainly less of a problem than when done with consoles. |

No, I'm adding games that I've got installed in Epic into Steam as non-Steam apps like Firefox and Notepad then changing the icon to match the game they represent. |

I didn’t really see the point in getting the remaster on PC when the original game still works in modern-day resolutions. I was tempted by the PS4 version but I don’t think it really got the same traction as in the old 360 days. The online challenges were the best part. |

Most are cross-buy, so if you've already bought them for Rift (through the Oculus store, not Steam) then you don't have to buy it again. There are a few exceptions, though. Notably Beat Saber, Superhot and Virtual Desktop. |
