Epic Games recently did an AMA (Ask me anything) in the community Discord server, confirming that a Linux / SteamOS version of the Epic Games Store is coming.
I’ve done it. I’ve create my website and finished creating the page dedicated to game and app stores. It took longer than I was expecting but it’s in a good enough shape that I can fix any issues with it and add some more stuff to it tomorrow. I’ve also changed how I rated every app store, GOG is now 13/15 and Steam is 12.5/15. Here’s the link to the home page. I’m going to bed now.
Thanks for the hollar! I checked it out and it reminded a of a long-lost website called videoeta.com. It basically listed the planned dvd/br releases for any upcoming movies.
I think I like rawg. I just learned there’s a new God of War in the pipes! I’m guessing rawg isn’t a distributor, but that wasn’t clear, even though you clearly mention it above that section. I think the same scoring method sent me for a trip (no shade, just thought I’d give my 2 cents).
Oh yeah, RAWG is just a game recommendation platform but it’s great because it’s completely community managed, meaning that if there are games missing or games that have missing/incorrect information, you can add/change it yourself. It’s also not limited to just one system or app store, in fact, the very first game I ever reviewed on RAWG was Super Mario 64.
Also, for some reason your comment reminded me that I’m aware of Moby Games, which is just a game database that’s somewhat similar to but quite different from GameFAQs, you’ll understand if you use it. But I’ve added it to my website and, based on how I’ve been scoring these websites, it has a 14/15 score. I can’t believe I forgot about Moby Games since it’s such a solid platform for finding games to play and I’ve had an account there for several years now. Obviously, RAWG is still better overall but Moby Games will be better for when I’m trying to find retro games to play, since RAWG mostly just recommends me newer games and I sometimes like to play older games.
Also yeah, RAWG has been down for a few days now. There is a possibility that it may shut down soon. From what I understand, it’s been almost completely abandoned by it’s owners for years now, which is unfortunate because it is a great platform.
I mentioned it at the top of the page, if you hover your mouse over them (only works on PC from what I remember) you’ll get an explanation for that tile. I should probably make that clearer since I did kind of bury that in the paragraph at the top of the page.

Dang, awesome list!!
You made me want to check out rawg.io, but it’s throwing a cloudfare error 😅!
I like how you break out the point categories, but I don’t understand what you were doing with the stars (they seem to appear randomly).
RAWG is back up now if you still want to check it out.

Haha, me and my reading skills! Yeah, I lemmy from my phone only, got it as a replacement for reddit. I’m happy to see itch.io getting some respect.
