Describe the bug

After logging in to epic using the browser method, rare will only stay logged in to epic if I stay logged in on the epic website. Logging out of the epic website logs me out of rare as well.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Log into epic on rare via browser
  2. After logging in, log out of the epic website
  3. Close rare and then re-open it
  4. Rare asks the user to log in again

Expected behavior

I expect to remain logged in on rare after logging out on epicgames.com

When you log out from the browser, you invalidate the session during which the authorization code you used to log in into Rare was created, In a sense, it works "as intended".
