Bye Bye Razor store.
PS, I never liked your software intrusion of the game controllers.
Nostromo was better before you got involved.

I guess that shows how much you know? This is what really happens:

“We will be sending you an email with an archive of all your game purchases where you’ll be able to activate them on Steam or UPlay at your own convenience,” the company added.

Very much like Ive been saying wrt the Metro release on Epic... there are no problems and consumers lose nothing. Tying yourself to Steam (and even adding it to your sig! Lol!) is not helping you one bit.
