So many people complain about epic and it's launcher. Yeah, it's not great but it works just fine and with all the free games you can claim, it's just crazy not to have a account for it.
Every week 1 to 2 games to claim and in December for like 2 weeks straight you get extra games to claim.
Who cares it's a repeat or a less good game, it's free. Try it out and maybe you'll find your next favorite game!
Their store is abhorrent to navigate last I tried it. And no Linux default client. A no from me. They don't want me so they won't have me.
I totally agree. After all this time the store is still lacking very heavily.
I'm going to give the heroic client a try, works great on my steam deck.
I would just make a account and claim the free games through the website, their always on the frontpage to claim.
But to each their own ofcourse.
You can use heroic, it is pretty good and supports epic, gog and amazon games, also setups proton/wine for you if you are not on win
Does it support Steam? Only launcher I want gone.
This is me every week. I have most of the free games in Steam so I’d rather play them there. And the ones I don’t, I can’t be bothered opening another launcher to play them.
At this point I don’t know why I grab them.
Little known fact: Many Games in Epic are actually DRM free, so you can simply add them to Steam manually: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/List_of_DRM-free_games_on_Epic_Games_Store
Or maybe you can try to use GOG Galaxy, which combines most launchers into one?
Man, they gave some really doozy though! If you haven't played Control, it's freaking awesome!
I am fellow enjoyer of Subnautica, GTA V, Watch dogs, Control, Train Simulator, Elder Scroll Online
Star Wars Battlefront II boiiiii
What?! Damn I missed that one
Control was sick though, (edit) I even bought the DLC for it. And they’ve had a bunch of free games that I had bought and played before they put them up for free.
This is me most weeks. Thanks for the reminder to claim them this week. :D
Cheeky self-plug, but if you join !freegames@feddit.uk you can see all the freebie notifications as they appear
There have been a few instances where I was excited for the free games that came out.
One game they have given out a few times is called “Enter the Gungeon”
This is one of the best roguelite games I’ve ever played. I have hundreds of hours in this game.
Please play it for a while if you have not.
Frickin' amen to that! I long got it on my switch, first digital than physical. Claimed it for free on ps+ and epic.
Between all of them I have 1000+ hours in the game and it's still fun to play.
Well you keep their user stats high, so they should thank you
I've played a bunch of Epic free games.
They've given out some fantastic games. I had a blast playing Fez, A Short Hike, Alan Wake and more.
using epic games
Thank you for reminding me to get my free game this week
I have a catch all email, so I create an account every week for no good reason. Anyone else?
Why?
Because I can give the credentials to someone who want's to play the game and I don't give access to all of my games.
I even do that with games I buy. You hacked my diablo3 account? Bad luck. But you don't have access to all my other games. I can even resell the whole game account when I'm done playing.
Don't get why my inital post was downvoted. I'm not saying that you should do that. Was just asking. But ok.
What
