Walmart and GameStop provide a physical place, that’s it. The Developer sends them the physical product.
Steam provides unlimited downloads, user forums, automatic updates, remote play, user reviews, Steam workshop etc…

Maybe Epic should charge more than 12% and invest that money in improving their client, or at least do that instead of wasting it on exclusivity deals. Then maybe I as a consumer will give a shit about Epic.

At least Xbox provides a platform and Walmart and Gamestop provide physical products at physical locations.
Steam doesn’t have those expenses. And they also have exclusive titles, just like EGS.
