I got 222 games on epic games store but haven't bought any at all.
By redeeming Epic giveaways and never buying anything you are sending profits to the developer while simultaneously costing Epic money. Win/Win.
The developers get paid a flat rate for allowing their game to be free, not per download. You are not sending the developer any money and allowing epic to inflate their user numbers (up 167% !!!) to investors.
Not that I am doubting you, but I'd really like to see a source for this. I would like to learn more about it.
Download the games too. Up their infastructure costs.
Really? Anything good?
They fave away disco elysium, two point hospital, death loop, sifu and such in 2025
I got Outer Worlds with all dlcs included, that's the only game I've installed and played from my EGS collection. I think I got Control there too, which I've been curious about.
Oh those are both dope games!
Harry Potter was free a few weeks ago. Both Styx games are free in a few days, which are excellent stealth games. Epic games routinely gives out good games for free.
Subnautica is good
There's some really good ones mixed in with intensely not-me games that get given away. Touch Type Tale, Strange Horticulture, Sunless Skies, Turmoil, Two Point Hospital, Sable, Lego 2k Drive, LOTR Return to Moria, Farm Simulator 2022, Bus Simulator 2021, The Bridge, etc.
