I really wish the EGS had better UX. I think many more people would use it if it did. For example, what basic feature is missing in this login window? "☑️ Remember me" I haven't had to 'log in' to steam for years, apart from on someone else's machine. For EGS, I have to actively log in every time.

Like, the Epic Games Store is slow. It is SO slow. For no good reason whatsoever. Look at this:

EGS is a program made in unreal engine itself. So there is the default UE cruft to work with already. But then on top of that it just loads and displays webpages. So the slowness is probably the combination of those 2.

Company that created the biggest and technically innovative gane engine, can't let a few of the engineers profile the gosh darn launcher. It feels like nothing is cached and all the textures are uncompressed. Even opening my game library is extremely slow.

I mean, come on man, look at how many times the Epic Games Store switches between dark and light mode by me just clicking around to buy a game. It's just so weird! And I really appreciate the free games. I bet a LOT of money goes into getting those games onto the store for free. But the UX sucks.

Or when you switch from the library to unreal, and again the whole UI changes. You can practically tell from a distance that these were built at different times by different teams, but then why are they placed in the UI as if they are on an equal level? There's just so much weird stuff going on.
