I can’t remember the last time anyone actually played the game they got for free on epic’s store
replyCitizen Sleeper, the game that is going free tomorrow on the Epic store is really good. Space Cyberpunk themed RPG/Survival Sim.
replyIt is interesting that people are so cynical about Epic giving out free games. I get that people love Steam, but competition in the storefront market is not bad.

replyIt's a mischaracterization to call the games free, if they require you to install unrelated third-party software you'd rather not install (and which at least in the past has been known to snoop your data without consent). In that sense, you may see it as backlash around characterizing the games as free in the first place, when they obviously are not.
Does it support Linux?
replyKerbal Space Program, Civilization 6, Hogwarts Legacy. All games nobody ever played…
replyI definitely have. But they're all the games that they gave out in the early days, the more recent games haven't really appealed to me. And it didn't convince me to spend any money, I still haven't spent a single cent on anything Epic Games.
replyI've been getting them for years now and have enjoyed many of them (though not a large percentage), and would love to use the Epic store more, if only they would implement some version of reviews/scores. Without that, I feel that I can't trust them as a marketplace.
replyI played hogwarts legacy for about an hour before realising it was boring, does that count?
replyI play Brotato fairly often. I am not sure I have played any of the other free games I’ve gotten though.
replyi've paid for brotato (Its a pretty good game, it was worth my money) and played city skylines (which i haven't paid for due to its excessive amount of dlcs)
replyThey gave away Death Stranding awhile ago, and I hear that one is good, which I don't dispute given its Kojima origins.
replyBut Kojima games require me to be in a very specific mood and I have been trying to work my way up to it.
