I've loved Super Meat Boy ever since it was first released all those years ago and will be buying Super Meat Boy Forever - in 2020. There's plenty of other stuff out there to distract me until then.
Rocket League hasn't been removed yet. There's no real confirmation it's going to be removed, and is still for sale, and currently being reviewed bombed on Steam.
Also after Epic bought 'Rocket League' and removed it - for new buyers - from Steam, I'm starting to loose a bit of sympathy for Epic.
After all, Epic and Valve are both making a huge amount of money, so there doesn't seem that much of a need for such aggressive strategies.
