Answer:
Hello. You did not enter the answer options, but what explains the discount for users who buy directly from Epic is the removal of the taxation levied by Google and Apple on games hosted on their systems.
Explanation:
Epic's games were hosted and exposed for sale through Google and Apple platforms. This made the price of these games, when purchased by these platforms, higher. That's because to host a game, Google and Apple charge a percentage of the sales made for that game. This percentage must be included in the final price.
However, buying the game directly from Epic, this percentage is not charged and the customer receives a "discount" on the final price.
This is a simile.
Metaphor would have a hidden meaning, an alliteration is when consecutive words start with the same sound or letter, while consonance is using the same vowel inside of a word in numerous consecutive words. None of those fit this.

"Mom.. I have something important to tell you.."
"Sure, what is it hun?"
"Y-You're not going to like it, so please don't get super mad at me.."
"It's alright, I'll try to be calm. Now tell me!"
"I... lost my phone."
"You what??"
"I lost it a while ago, I was just so scared at the thought of your reaction.."
"I WARNED YOU ABOUT THIS-"
The mom stares at her for a while, processing her thoughts. She then sighed and said,
"It's alright honey, a lot of things get lost over time."
"You're really not mad?"
"I'm not mad. However, I'm not going to buy you another phone again. You will have to earn the money for it."
"Okay, that's alright.."
Dear [Teacher],
I write this letter to convey my apology for attending class late on [Insert Date]. Due to my tardiness, I missed a class which is fundamental to my studies as far as achieving good grades in the exams is concerned.
According to the rules of the school regarding class attendance, students should be in class and settled before the lessons start. I, therefore, regret obstructing you and other students when the class was in progress. I am currently takings steps to ensure that I get in touch with other students and learn what was taught before arriving.
I have also written the notes you gave the other students. My lateness was caused by my parents’ car breakdown as they were dropping me to school. The car had to get serviced. Unluckily, the mechanic contacted was away and therefore we had to wait for him. Since we were a long distance away from school, I could not walk to school and this left me with no other option other than waiting for almost an hour to avoid arriving late in the future, my parents and I will ensure that the car is always in a good condition.
We have also resolved to always start our journey earlier than before in order to have time to take care of such unforeseen incidences. I kindly request you to let me know if there is anything I should learn or do in order to compensate the time I missed.
I greatly value your lessons and I promise you that I will not disappoint you and the rest of the class in future.
Sincerely,
[Full Name]
