Epic Store : A Free Game Every Fucking Week for the Rest of 2019
Fuck off shill
Go back to china nigger
They're desperate because they were unable to fulfill a single promise from their roadmap.
but I never pay for games anyway.
DO I EVEN HAVE TO SAY IT
TIEN
A game on the epic store is worth less than nothing. Tell me when they pay me to use them.
i'll continue to only use my epic account for the free games and that's it
no reason to bother buying anything
any free online multiplayer games? if not, then I'm not interested. I pirate all the rest anyway.
They have like 50 games and they already gave like 20 away based
Wtf I'm downloading epic store now
So I could sign up and just get free shit?
Dauntless is pretty nice
Based
This is going to make the VaIvedrones seethe.
Why make an account and get free games when I can get all of those games for free anyways?
*ahem*
Can I redeem those free games on my steam account?
I already use Steam/GoG/Itch.io and really don't feel like splitting my digital library among more launchers than that.
If not I'll just keep using steam, besides, its not like Epic ever has real "exclusivity". Its always just "On everything but steam" for a year, at worst this will just stop me from impulse buying games I don't really want that much
pretty much yes
they pretty much payed the bill for almost everything. Don't believe their lies.
you can't even review games
What roadmap?
pcbros are already seething 24/7, if they seethe any harder they will vaporize
Thats their plan yeah, they've giving away free stuff to make people feel like they can't abandon their shitty storefront.
Download it if you want, but you're just falling into their jewish tricks and giving them free access to the data on your computer so they can learn how to do even more devious jewish tricks
But they have no games
>haven't logged into my epic account for months
>prior to that chinks bruteforcing my passwords
>i finally log in
>i have 30+ chink bot accounts that have added me
now try telling me epic is not compromised
>D-DONT DOWNLOAD IT NO DONT BELIEVE THEIR L-LIES
>Y-YOU CANT EVEN REWIEW GAMES
So like that's 15 games already and around 29 weeks left in 2019...so 44? Do they even have that many games in the store?
Who cares? Steam reviews blow, you'll end up looking them up on google anyway. 98% of steam shit is a meme and a thumbs up or a thumbs down
This right here. It was the sole reason I downloaded Origin, just to get the free games. I haven't even bothered firing it up to even play the free games in like a year so I might as well uninstall it. They aren't giving free games out anymore so fuck it.
How have they still not fixed their security?
the majority is fucking indie platformer trash. They won't give out ones worth downloading
No one would be upset if they weren't spending literal millions to get games taken away from the storefront that we all like more for a year.
Their "exclusivity" doesn't stop the games from being on PS4, Xbox, Switch or even the Windows 10 store. Literally just steam.
I'm not a big fan of companies trying to strong arm me like that. If they want me to consider using their service they can tempt me with better features than steam, not by taking games away from me and saying I have to either use their garbage tier launcher or wait a year.
Consumer reviews are shit and always wrong.
they are too fucking stupid to limit password retries period which every company has done, they rely on users using 2 way authentication.
Why bother why most of the stuff on there is already cracked?
>26 weeks left
So they're gonna give away every game in the store?
way ahead of you epic games
Chink defense force.
Epic hasn't implemented shit that's been standard on literally every storefront for the past decade. Even if you don't care about the spyware the actual service you get from steam or GoG over the Epic store is immense. Not to mention security concerns.
1989
yes
That would require good games.
Steam and Windows store BTFO Epic.
I bet $1.02 odds that's true.
Or you could pirate and not install chinaman spyware
Or they're making so much cash they are throwing money away to make more money.
SHIN
only one worth it was subnautica it kept my autism for about 40 hours which was impressive and I actually liked it.
>just notice Journey is on EGS
Is it worth $5? I never bought a PS3 or PS4 but I was always curious about that game specifically.
Ooo free indie games that aren’t selling
sony fags loved that game
Is it free to keep forever?
>making so much cash
If that's true, why not use it to improve store security, store source code so that games can be added automatically without delaying others and a fucking shopping cart?
Not worth the hassle to create an account.
That's the reason I got Epic too was for Subnautica, but I didn't even play it that long. I played it for about an hour and got extremely bored. Then I got World of Goo because I torrented it before and liked it.
they need to upgrade fortnite once a week
yes
it‘s a classic underselling tactic. give away free or cheap shit to overtake the competition and when everyone uses your product, increase prices. They‘ll probably introduce a subscription service next year or some shit.
Aren’t they going to run out of games?
cause i'm a law abiding citizen
>make natural selection 2
>company was nothing but dude bros no politics whatsoever
>make subnautica after being bought out by chinks
>the lead dev starts becoming mentally ill and pozzed, everything about politics
>nogunz
>muh gender
>muh negroids
what the fuck does California put in the water they were not faggets in the beginning and got progessively worse by the years.
I hope Epic shit all over Gabe and his fat lazy ass.
FUCK STEAM AND FUCK SOCIETY, LET IT ALL BURN
no not really, its more like tim is pretty based and gaben is a fat fuck
>more shit free games I won't play anyways
whatever
>Great Value John Carmack
>affiliated with Tencent
Go fuck yourself, drone.
Steam will always be superior
seems pretty desperate
bribing publishers isnt enough for their business to stay afloat, now they have to bribe customers. pretty sad
>Free Games
Neato, right?
>We must destroy a privately owned company to install this publically traded one that is backed by Chinese bugmen
How could anyone want this?
Oh shit, Enter The Gungeon is going to be free next week? Fucking based.
As much as I can't stomach all of the above they were creative enough to do the game with limited offensive weapons and end game you got what amounts to a gun anyway and it's hilarious killing the leviathans with the mech suit.
Lucky for you I live here and it's not the water it's self righteous assholes who rely on a second class of citizen to do their dirty work at the cost of everyone else around them. They grow up with a chip on their shoulders and a messianic complex. Wealthy people live separated from the proles and the schools prepare them to continue the cycle. Also the entire tax system is screwed to the core and ready to implode. Can't raise taxes openly to fund all the bullshit here so they tax everything and regulate everything to death and slowly strangle local economies to death. Sorry about the nutjobs but it's not getting any better.
how will gaben respond?
valve had to have been anticipating something like this
What is their endgame with this?
Do they think I'm gonna spend money on their store at some point?
Origin use to do the same shit and the only thing I bought from them was Battlefield and ME3.
EGS doesn't have any good exclusives, as most of them are timed to eventually release on steam, and I pirate those anyway because those devs can eat shit.
Cool. Free games. There's nothing that interests me on their platform even for free.
They want your personnel information
selling their soul to china oh wait and off course shartifact
They're just gonna wait it out. Epic won't sign exclusive deals forever.
But every game on the EGS is free already?
>how will gaben respond?
One free loot box for everyone!
Carpet bomb everyone with ads and notifications about their games and new fortnite content till the end of time.
maybe if they gave away new AAA games and not indie shit everyone already played years ago.
Why even get those free games from the store giving chinks your data when you just can pirate them?
Epic has infinite money. Valve will eventually be forced to sign exclusivity contracts in one, last, pathetic effort to stay relevant.
CHA
Will devs who don't want their games being given away for free and ruining their value pull their games from sale?
fuck you epic
>Most of the games are complete shit that was already given away free on other platforms or bought through humble bundle for abso-fucking-lutely nothing
Couldn't give any less of a fuck if i tried, shill elsewhere faggot.
Nice. Not gonna bother tho.
they have unreal engine, at one point they dont even need to pay publisher, tim will take control of every game company :)
so if the game is free why do I need their launcher when I can just pirate it?
epic already paid for it
>steam has more exclusives on epic games show than egs
quite the opposite, user, egs is the one that needs to keep signing exclusivity to stay relevant
maybe the developer gets paid per download count?
Chinese botnet datamining upon accepting the terms of service and running the program
Says the one who lost exclusivity for The Outer Worlds.
>Please
>Please sign up to our store
>We give games
how are they compromised if nobody actually got on your account and just tried to get in?
Do you think they'll give away Hades?
>tfw missed earlier giveaways
Have you seen the quality of free game they've been handing out though? It's the kind of stuff you find in the bottom tier of humble bundles.
egs doesn't need exclusives to stay relevant. That's what fortnite is for.
they already did or ?
mmmmmmm based
cant wait to download generic indy pixel game part 6 for free
CHIAOTZU
This reeks of desperation in the light of Microsoft's push.
just made an account, enter the gungeon is free on the 13th, ballin.
This is the way steam got popular years ago. They gave away shitty free games and had sales during holidays.
Gaben was a god because of that.
Tim is the devil because of that.
Hmmmm.
DELETE THIS
IT'S NORMAL
NO SPYWARE
They'll have to at some point. Their store barely has any games and it's not like any of the AAA devs on their are gonna do it when their whole point of being on the store was to be greedy
got already debunked based steamcell
>They already gave away Transistor, The Witness, Enter to Gungeon is coming next week
bbbbut all the shit games, nnnnobody wants them
i meant as a store, not a fortnite launcher
Oh boy, weekly indieshit for the low cost of giving up all my data to chinks.
it is chinese spyware
nothing in life is free unless you steal it which you can

>These two things are exactly the same!
No, they aren't.
I sure don't want any of that indie shovelware.
>debunked
You mean when some redditor pretended he knew a thing about computers while ignoring 90% of the problems?
Debunked how, is this video fake?
Why? Because one fits your agenda and the other doesn't?
>China would never do something like that!
I can't believe I don't want a single one of any of those
He'll say yes and nothing else
>posting reddit propaganda that has been debunked
OH NONONONONONO
>No, not China!
One involves someone cornering an empty market or creating a market if you will. The other involve hostile, anti-consumer practices designed solely to provide more money to publically traded corporations at the expense of the end users in the guise of giving devs more money, which is a joke, because pubs get that money not the code monkeys.
exactly.
lum is cute, CUTE
china capitalism >>> USA capitalism
>get launcher
>set it up to not run without my input
>get free game
>close launcher
>pirate game
>delete launcher when they run out of games to give out before the end of the year
they are desperate to increase their install base
reality is that epic hit gold with fortnite but it could easily die off over the next few years once the fad wears off. epic do not have any other games with a wide player base and fortnite had very loose recognition apart from one or two Characters. in fact their main cultural impact has been the dances which don't even belong to them.
they need that game store money bad to secure their future growth. they have a bunch of money to pump into acquiring a massive install base by offering quite good indie games for free. this will be scaled down once they reach a large enough install base. also part of the reason they managed to do this was because fortnite made them a gorillion dollars so they can just pump money into going toe to toe with valve in a way that most devs can't afford.
Valve will react by doing absolutely nothing.
Same way they'll react to subscription models in gaming, despite that trend being a clear way forward.
why are you subhumans this dumb ? this topic is old as fuck Im not your fucking mom to repeat everything so you tiny brains can realize how dumb you are
ah, yes, yes. huawei spies on you too! never buy that. alibaba/aliexpress ? disgusting use our amazon, goyim
Based and yoinkpilled
>hostile, anti-consumer practices
use more buzzwords friend. that will paint a better picture on the evil tim. ugabuga
How is trying to install spyware on my PC not hostile? Go fuck yourself, serf.
>they are desperate to increase their install base
when epic does it = it's desperate
when anyone other does it = well it's just business
So.. You have no source on that it was debunked?
I bet they'll give away Metro Exodus for free right before it releases on Steam again.
you can get the free games through the website you dont even need the launcher
yes, yes. remember, chinease phones have microbombs in them and when they spy on you and hear something bad it will go kaboom
>ah, yes, yes. huawei spies on you too!
I am glad we have an understanding here, but now you need to go back to your master's website.
I rather have China spy on me than Israel-lite
I never said any of those things. I win.
>spy on me
What is a botnet?
Steamcels seething
>I spread dumb retarded old shit
>debunk or its true
kys
I still won't install this shit even if they give away AAA games for free.
Give me a library full of triple AAA games that are good and I'll think about it.
Just go where(Reddit) that video where made and see for youself
>AAA games
>good
pick one
Give us fucking linux support and then maybe I'll slightly care more you chinese commies.
If the shit is old and debunked there should be no problem providing sources to show how retarded and debunked it really is?
Which is why they won't get me to install their platform.
that's ironic, since hating on epic is the most reddit activity on the planet
>pretending to be a linux user
Nice
I actually am believe it or not. I went from Windows 7 to Linux. I don't want to deal with Windows 10's bullshit.
Gungeon free next week is pretty good.
I've enjoyed the little I've played of it, the game is hard but still fair.
What kind of games are they offering for free? Shitty indie games?
They will run out of games before fall
Next games are Bloodborne, uncharted IV, Zelda;breath of the wild and God of War
Google does it all the time.
Youtube makes absolutely nothing, in fact it costs them quite a bit of money.
The only reason they keep it around is the POTENTIAL to make money, hence all their fucking dumb failure experiments.
Equally it prevents pretty much anyone else able to compete.
Google took Youtube off the internet for most of its journey. It goes over Google fibers.
This cuts their costs considerably.
If Youtube were still over the general internet backbone, it would have been killed nearly a decade ago due to costs.
Realistically the only ones that can compete are Amazon-tier companies.
Why the FUCK they haven't made one is beyond me.
They already have Twitch community, they could morph it to videos as well.
Instead, we still have the dumb auto-pruning shite from Twitch pre-Amazon.
Those fuckers have infinity+1 resources. Get that shit sorted cunts.

I stopped falling for FREE ICONS meme after I realized how much of a pain in the ass it is to navigate through my Steam library which is 70% indie garbage from good old times when you could get a dozen of them for 0.01$ from Humble Bundle and that meme Christmas sale with coalfaggotry when everyone was idling games like hats in TF2 to get gorillion of copies of Bad Rats.
>What will you play next?
That was WiiU's marketing phrase, good job EGS
Honestry what so bad about Epic Games Store they got rots good game and happy fol you! Use Epic Game Store it gonna make rots joy
The desperation is real.
I mean yours you lonely fuck.
How bad must their store be doing if they have to extend their free games period to the whole rest of the year, in addition to the fuckhuge sales where everything gets $10 off and Epic eats the cost?
How the fuck will that work for Valve?
Give you all of Steam for free if you pay a fee? A discount on top of a monthly fee? Streaming garbage?
Ive gotten a couple games on my wishlist for free thanks to epic.
They're not AAA titles or anything but its not all trash.
You might want 1/4 games they post, and its free just for having the launcher.
Its the kind of stuff that is or will be included in humble bundles at a mid-low tier soon.
Pc store wars, i can't belive people are that fucking retarted. But what can you expect from kids and onions boys
>i can't belive people are that fucking retarted. But what can you expect from kids and onions boys
Epic was the group that started paying publishers and devs to make there be storefront wars
Why is he so desperate to make EGS a thing when he already has the biggest game of the decade?
>B-but mom, he started it!
>Bought exclusives
>No one buys
>Give games away
>No one cares
>Aggressive smear campaigns against major competitors steam and CDPR
>No one believes
>Literally give away shit for free because nothing else is working
They're absolutely desperate to get their chinese malware on your computer. You'd have to be an idiot or a poorfag to support this shitty underhanded business tactic from a soulless anti-consumer chink company
>the retard that's so retarded his account email/name/password is leaked
Yikes
They'll improve their store security when Steam improves theirs, or have you already forgotten about Steam getting hacked 3 times these past 5 years
All of it moved back by a couple months now. It's doubtful that they'll manage to implement a shopping cart before next year.
>No shopping cart
Because he has to do what the bugmen who bought 40 percent of his company tell him to do or they'll just buy 100 percent of it, tell him to fuck off, and do what they want. Fartnite is already fading in popularity and what was Epic before that? A company that made a vidya engine and used to make video games. Being Steam is a better revenue source than a hackneyed, washed up gamedev of yesteryear.
He knows that every gravy train comes to an end eventually.
>Bethesda pays retards to cheer in the crowd
>Epic pays faggots to shill online
E3 of Shilling.
All he does is burn even faster through all the Fortnite cash
DON'T DO IT, FRIEZAAAAA
>china bad, china bad, spyware everywhere
they literally invested in epic 7 years ago. nothing change since then. it wasn't a problem then, but is now when they started to oppose the daddy steam.
hmmmmmmmmm, it's almost like i've seen it somewhere before
China is bad, user.
>Because he has to do what the bugmen who bought 40 percent of his company tell him to do or they'll just buy 100 percent of it, tell him to fuck of
It's funny, because it's total bullshit. Hell, EGS is even competing with tencent own laucher in china. Tencent was knows for only investing in companies and not forcing anything on them for years.
Also they can't buy epic, not going to explain it to 13 years old timmy. You're not going to understand it anyway
This feels more like desperation rather than them being nice.
Still not installing that garbage.
>Nothing changed
They're pretty much the driving force behind Paragons failure.
>its bad because epic does it
you know how valve is making loads of cash from their economies set up in tf2/csgo/dota and doing nothing with the cash? epic is doing that with fortnites cosmetics except they're paying devs to give away their games
>Re-Logic says they'll never sell their souls to Epic games or encourage exclusive deals
>theirs is the only trailer, THE ONLY ONE, that randomly cuts out during E3

DOES ANYONE THINK THIS IS A LITTLE TOO (((COINCIDENTAL)))?
>They can't become a majority shareholder in Epic Games
yeah, they can.
Obvious tranny poster. Dilate.
sure, but america is ten times worse than them. china isn't cancer to anyone other than their own citizens. murica is cancer to the whole world
no. paragon got canned because nobody played it

this is not true. stream got fucked twice. second time was during borderlands

Theoretically speaking they can also become majority shareholders of your mother vagina.

>no. paragon got canned because nobody played it
It got "canned" because it was redirected away from the MOBA genre into some abomination to avoid eating into Tencents LoL profits you uneducated nigger.
No one would get angry if the games they moneyhatted for exclusivity weren't, y'know, exclusive to their store. People don't like being forced to use a specific store to get their games, which is exactly why I won't use EGS on principle. If I do use EGS, I practically tell them that it's okay for them to do this shit. If they instead fix their shit and stop spying on me while they stop the moneyhatting, THEN I might start using their fucking store, because then they have showed signs that they actually give a shit about customer choice and whatnot.
dauntless always was free
Because it is only ethical to Pirate anime and books. Books are necessary to human development and there are a total of 0 Anime streaming sites that are worth it, the pirate sites have a better customer experience than the fucking payed ones
A free game every week or a free game right now downloaded from TPB? You decide.
its free update, and the end screen only said "coming soon" with no logos
>Anime streaming sites
>Because it is only ethical
stopped reading there, you don't own jack shit to companies and they don't owe you anything. stop being a moralfag
The one I made up to falseflag
Thank god steam does not have tens of thousands exclusive games in their store. Fucking epic
I'm a pirate but that's pretty fucking based. I can't believe so many retards hate them
if anything, it was made to be less like smite. it's literally a different game demographic. 2d moba players do not play 3d moba
>stop having a personal code of ethics
What a moronic thing to say, user.
>2d moba players do not play 3d moba
I know plenty that do, stay wrong Epicuck.
unless it is absolutely required to pay (e.g. going to the cinema and being asked for a ticket) you should pirate whenever possible, and THEN consider paying if you really enjoyed said game, music, anime, w/e. ethics don't mean shit, companies don't really care if you do or don't, so why bother paying unless you use your money as a way to pay respect to the developers?
I'd rather use Piratebay if it came to that.
you mean the 10 other people that played paragon with you?. there were multiple other mobaesque 3d games. all of them died and smite is the only one that survived.
Your stance that things should be pirated is a code of ethics just btw user
funny you should bring that picture with todays shitstorm about people that bought shitmue on kickstarter
>Claim nobody does something
>Get proven wrong
>Start sperging like a retard
LOL
Smells like desperation to me, honestly. I remember it was originally "once a month."
They honestly seem like they have no idea what the fuck they're doing, and the fuckup of their first big sale confirms that the store is going to fall as soon as the Fortnite money runs out and their scrambling to get themselves out of revenue freefall.
>Claim nobody does something
how?
by saying 'i know a few people that do'
yeah, that sure showed me and proved your point....
Why do people defend epic? Every shitty thing Steam does, they replicate, and sometimes do even worse shit, i can understand hating both, but every "Epicfag" here seems like just another user desperate for attention. Ohhh now i finally get it, it's just console wars for the PC
Paragon is dead because epic decided to focus almost all of their human resources on fortnite. This is the only fucking reason and you need to be retarted to think otherwise
Tim already paid for the free game so when I pirate it's not a lost sale.
Only for the rest of 2019? Pretty weak.
Dumb ass doesn't quote the proper line, nigga is malfunctioning. Dilate.

grow up, kid
Yes user, you are clearly smarter than multi billion company.
I don't give the most remote shit about either steam or epic but I always felt it's wrong to pay 3 or 5 bucks for a full game. It shouldn't be under 10 dollars and it should ideally reward the people who worked on it at some level, not just the studio.
There's been free games on Steam occasionally already.
Sears can do no wrong and will never fail because they are a billion dol-
oh, fuck it, do I really need to go on?
Because someone on reddit said epic was bad, that means epic is good because reddit is bad! Am I fitting in yet?

Since we're smarter than Tim Sweeney to know EGS wasn't the first digital store to sell third party games, yes, I guess I am smarter than a multi-billion dollar company.
Why would I use a store that doesn't even have the most basic of functions?

Oof my pussy.
Retarded underaged Reddit meme, tencent invested in epic and bought shares in 2011 or so now it's pretty important to scream muh chinks even when epic is more American (Tim has a lot of American property) than Gaben aka sold his biggest IP to china recently.
That's pretty desperate. But it doesn't matter when you can get all your games free.
If you have the corporate cock so far down you throat that it is physically impossible for you to articulate a coherent argument, then stop wasting oxygen.
Just because you like it up the ass doesn't mean I have to, enjoy getting fucked by corporations who take you for a fool at any moment's notice and want nothing else but your money and your blind faith and devotion.
>says the steamdrone, cope, cope!
I have zero reasons to dislike Steam, I have zero reasons to dislike Origin, GOG, Uplay, the Humble Store, Discord, Battle.net; all of which I have accounts for, but I have many reasons to dislike and outright despise Epic Games and their market strategy.
>we made f2p games free
lol kys tiennamen square
based Tim gonna take over and give us all crossplay
TenCent has something like a 47 - 48% ownership of Epic Games's shares.
>I have many reasons to dislike and outright despise Epic Games
no you don't
you're just programmed to. good goy
I bet you are just another angry redditor
first post most truthful post.
EG wants people to use their chinese spyware.
third post best post
Thanks. No idea that means anything in the end. Guess I'll keep not caring about Epic and just take some free games.
They're doing this shit in response to MS and Bethesda being on Steam. They can't strongarm all their games plus Destiny 2 so they pull some paltry attempt at interaction with the store. Reeks of desperation.
Valve did not pay for any of those, they chose Steam because, would you imagine, Steam is the superior platform
Minecraft just overtook Fortnite again in terms of relevancy and they keep shitting the bed with more seasons
He's shitposting like the others. Ignore them
>Muh Epic Bad
>Discord aka botnet good
>Steam aka the inventors of modern DRM good
Cringe and redditpilled
>others being bad somehow changes Epic is worse
Cringe
it's 40%.
stop inflating those numbers every time....
kek this is what it seems like to me, I'm imagining Sweeney is absolutely seething that Microsoft has cucked them with Metro AND Outer Worlds.
>An IP Epic created is being used against them now
Fucking kek
It's about 40% (they have 2 chairman out of 6 plus the owner Tim so it's even less in reallity) but pretty weird and funny how the numbers goes up every day thanks valve drones lmao
Can you uninstall the launcher and still access the games?
Depends on the game egs is DRM free
>a DRM store client is DRM free
polygon.com
>48.8%
Yeah okay, "40%" my ass
How about you counter the argument with something of actual substance rather than accuse somebody of being a ledditor for having a different opinion to yours? Jesus, with how much your opinion on things revolves around being the opposite of what Reddit thinks, you couldn't be more mentally bankrupt if you tried. Have sex or go neck yourself swiftly.
>Steam good, egs bad. So game that is only on steam is good but only on epic bad.
Fucking retard
Steam was the only platform with huge playerbase due them being the first company to join this buisness. Stop pretending like they could choose something else
Can you read underaged faggot
Unironically this.
Like go look at the PC conference. The big exclusives they got was a fucking niche nipjank game from the Dreamcast era and Chivalry 2 of all things. Oh and AutoChess which actually might be pretty big honestly.
Even the worst MS games like Gears 5 will still outperform all of the EGS trash, just because it's series everyone has begging for a decade. To see that and Halo plus any future titles is a real punch in the gut to Tims plans
>replys with shitpost strawman to getting called out for shitposting
You said that epic is anti-consumer, you didn't even said why. How can i argue when you have no arguments you fucktard?
Yes they could chose other stores but they chose steam because they had the best store
Okay 48.4%, not 48.8%. Woo big difference.
Now fuck off you dipshit.
>Store client lacks basic functionality
>Security concerns, Epic employees literally send some dude's info to a different person "by mistake"

>Revenue split benefits mostly publishers and occasionally devs, but doesn't translate to better prices for customers.
Unlike you, I do not get paid to shill for a company, I seek whatever is best for me, and Epic Games Store is the worst for any customer with half a functioning brain. Do not let me stop you, eat corporate drivel for as long as you like, but do not try to come up with stupid bullshit like "you're just a fanboy" to justify me not bending over backwards to be fucked by yet another company who just wants my money.
Sounds like they're desperate for a userbase.
They don't have the numbers that steam has so they're willing to lose money on tempting people away from steam.
If they ever gain market dominance they won't do stuff like this anymore.
I would rather have a privately owned company like value be the leading PC platform.
I hate corporations.
Chivalry is dead and Torn banner is garbage after their last game and rep from Chiv 1. Not to mention Mordhau is out for 2 months and sells 1 million units and furthers the blow
Cope harder steamcells
>"In June 2012, Tencent made a minority investment in Epic Games, purchasing approximately 48.4 percent of outstanding shares of Epic stock, equating to 40 percent of total Epic capital inclusive of both stock and employee stock options,"
Why are you steam faggot such brain-dead amerimutts with 0 IQ like really get your life straight or you might kill yourself
Yep we're coping with the fact epic is just plain shit seething epic tranny
I know this is all just bait but how is having free games tempting users away from steam? Like epicbros say it's just another launcher and I agree. So by that logic steam is just another launcher as well.
If you get both steam and epic how can epic trump steam? People don't just magically jump ship from one launcher to another. More often than not, they just use all the launchers. So how can epic feasibly be the steam killer if at best they're just going to become steam's second fiddle?
It's not my fault you need to be reminded for the hundredth fucking time now just why they are anti-consumer
>Spies on you without consent
>Sells this data to the Chinese
>Takes away choice of where to buy your game through exclusivity deals
>No shopping cart
>Bans you for buying too many games in a row

Please counter ALL of the above before you dismiss my argument. PROTIP: You can't.
Ohnono he is still coping, steam is the tranny platform gramp, Tim is dabbing on all these twitter steam trannies
The funny thing is, they probably have most of the numbers on PC needed to compete with Steam, the problem is that nobody actually uses Epic outside of Fortnite.
Riot has had the numbers and the money to do it since forever, but never did. I genuinely wonder what made Timmy Tencent decide to make up their shitty useless store. What drove him?
Don't forget it even spies on other programs like stean for example
Which game is free this week?
I'm not sure I can be bothered to sign up
So fucked is Steam considering every publisher is releasing their own platform?
Stupid people can never be explained. Just observed.
We will observe your stupidity.
>>Spies on you without consent
Retard
>>Sells this data to the Chinese
Retard
>>Takes away choice of where to buy your game through exclusivity deals
True, not like you had any choice before anyway.
>>No shopping cart
True, not an issue. There is literaly like 20 games there.
>>Bans you for buying too many games in a row
Yeah, that one guy from twitter that got unbanned in 15 minutes is such a huge deal
>>Makes consumer pay the transaction fee instead of covering it themselves
Yeah, are you from africa? Because it does not happen in normal countries
You basically just copied every reddit lie/half-truth and you belive yourself to think for yourself? I was not wrong, you are a fucking redditor
Actually that's what I want to know as well.
Steam isn't fucked. EGS and GOG are the only actual competitors that have any traction and no one else will have EGS money to make better deals for developers and publishers.
They are not trying to kill steam, they are trying to became an alternative.
Can't wait to buy those origin games for five bucks and redeem the code and uninstall epic game launcher.
Pure desperation move. Epic is on its last legs.
Cool. I'll claim all of them and might even play some of them. Not gonna give them any money though.
>they are trying to become a monopoly
Ftfy
So...SHOPPING CART WHEN? The most basic thing that they should've had included from the get-go and it's not there. They literally have no excuse here for that.
Aren't they gonna run out of shovelware to give out at some point? They'll have to bloat their store with more shovelware just to have something they can give out.
do you know how much fortnite is making?
it prints money
This is just code for indie scraps right?
>KILL STEAM KILL THEM ALL I WANT GABE NEWELL TO SUFFER
>w-what? No we don't want to kill steam :(
Talk about a massive mood whiplash.
I already get free games every week?
Personally i just want to steamdittors to suffer but cool strawman anyway
>weeks and days before E3
>EPIC IS GETTING BLOODBORNE AND RDR2
>now
>Epic got Shenmue and Chivalry
What went wrong?
>users promoting Epic all have faulty arguments and a poor commandment of the English language
Chinese shills are a thing. Google "wu mao".
God theyre trying so hard. I get a free Epic exclusive game every week via torrents.
They are going to give out bloodborne and rdr2 for free because their care about consumers. Unlike gaben who only cares about doritos
>it's just a strawman when you say I want to kill steam users
>as I admit that I want to kill steam users
always pirate hollywood shit, them losing money by torrenting and fewer ticket sales is the best way to get them to change though it seems useless when everyone still runs out to see Capeshit #658,463,578
>True, not like you had any choice before anyway.
Except there was, Steam. Use Epic's store if you want, but let me still buy games on steam.
>True, not an issue. There is literaly like 20 games there.
It is an issue, I understand you having low standards, but I don't. A shopping cart is one of the most basic features in any bloody online store and they couldn't even get that right.
>Yeah, that one guy from twitter that got unbanned in 15 minutes is such a huge deal
And what if he wasn't? What if It had happened to me? I don't have a twitter account with hundreds of followers, I would've had to go through their shitty customer service and hope to get unbanned.
>Yeah, are you from africa? Because it does not happen in normal countries
That's Epic's whole attitude right there, parroted by a shill as to be expected. Downplaying people's problems or complains just because you don't see them as such doesn't make them go away.
But just keep throwing "redditor" and "steamdrone" around as if that means anything.
And they're essentially burning that money. Good job.
To be fair to Epic, they need to double down hard on their marketing schemes because Microsoft literally partnered up with Steam. Not to mention shit like Larian and Bungie throwing shade at them.
(((Social Overhaul)))
>here, have these free games for free!
what type of marketing tactic is this
newfags believed newfag hype as facts
They really want these email addresses, huh.
*newfag dream hype
I get free games every day lol.
Only 12% of fortnite sales were on pc in 2018
I try to keep it only once a week otherwise I'll never be able to finish anything.
Who fucking even needs a game a week for half a year? I haven't even finished my god damn backlog yet.
It's like Walmarts or other big box stores, the advertise low priced bullshit to lure you into the store. These items in the business are called "loss leaders". The idea behind it is to get people into the store to buy the slashed priced shit, because since they're there, they're likely to pick up other things resulting in more money. Get people into the store, and impulse takes control basically. Low priced (or free in this case) stuff is tantalizing.
>>Spies on you without consent
>Retard
Not a counterargument, besides, they're PROVEN to do this multiple times, so right back at you.
>>Sells this data to the Chinese
>Retard
Again, not a counterargument.
>>Takes away choice of where to buy your game through exclusivity deals
>True, not like you had any choice before anyway.
The choice between Steam and GoG is still one more choice than Epic and literally no other store.
>>No shopping cart
>True, not an issue. There is literaly like 20 games there.
Are you actually fucking retarded?
>>Bans you for buying too many games in a row
>Yeah, that one guy from twitter that got unbanned in 15 minutes is such a huge deal
The fact that he got banned at all for it should speak for itself, but sure, brush it off.
>>Makes consumer pay the transaction fee instead of covering it themselves
>Yeah, are you from africa? Because it does not happen in normal countries
Guess somebody didn't notice the price tags being higher on EGS than on Steam.
>Except there was, Steam. Use Epic's store if you want, but let me still buy games on steam.
I allow you to buy games on steam. You're welcome
>It is an issue, I understand you having low standards, but I don't. A shopping cart is one of the most basic features in any bloody online store and they couldn't even get that right.
How is this a big deal again? You are not buying grocery, i bet you don't even use shopping cart on steam lol.
>And what if he wasn't? What if It had happened to me? I don't have a twitter account with hundreds of followers, I would've had to go through their shitty customer service and hope to get unbanned.
Their customer service is leagues above steam customer service. In fact, steam customer service is one of the worst out there. Also, steam will block you as well if you buy 5 games separately in short time. In fact any shop will do that, that's standard procedure. Not like you know about this, because it's almost impossible to do withouth a bot.
>That's Epic's whole attitude right there, parroted by a shill as to be expected. Downplaying people's problems or complains just because you don't see them as such doesn't make them go away.
But just keep throwing "redditor" and "steamdrone" around as if that means anything.
Point is, it does not concern you. So why do you care? Because someone told you so, that's why. Fucking steam shills can't think for themselves
The funny thing is, if it really is "just another launcher", like the epic shills say, then there's no reason for people to ONLY buy exclusives and get the free games and then ignore epic altogether until the next exclusive and/or free game comes by.
That is just a loss for epic. They need to have those users generate income. The exclusives need first to pay for themselves, and then be profitable, and then free games are literally just investment with the hopes of generating income through secondary game purchases... a hard thing to do, especially when you don't even have a shopping cart.
*indie shits* lmao 10k exclusives for PC ARINO!!!!!!!!!!!!! PC MUSTARD !!
I could bother to counter all the bullshit you said, but I am literally just wasting my time.
>because you know you can't
Of course, of course.
So which game?
ni how, chang
Wähl AFD
>the absolute state of crybabies
>I mean gamers
remember, all the games on the epic store are for free at any time
sometimes even before they are available on the epic store
get them for free!
without even having to install epic cancer on your pc
>How is this a big deal again?
People were locked out of their accounts if they had more than three transactions, and Epic requires you to give them your SS number, which is fucking outrageous, especially considering how incompetent Epic is at security. Explain how this isn't a big deal.
>user use copy-paste reddit arguments, it's not very effective
>Heh, i could destroy you. But it would be a waste of time, user fled using run away
95% of people dislike the epic store as evidenced by every place you look
if you don't like it you can go back to where you came from
Man the epic store is fucking trash
imagine if the only way you could browse the steam store was by scrolling through every single game
no tags
no recommended games based on what you play
no sorting
nothing other than one long list with every game on the same page
Whoever made this is retarded
>Also, steam will block you as well if you buy 5 games separately in short time. In fact any shop will do that, that's standard procedure. Not like you know about this, because it's almost impossible to do withouth a bot.
Steam also has a shopping cart, meaning you don't need to buy five games separately, unlike Epic. Nor does steam ask you for your social security number after they lock your account, they just send an email to your account's email with a code.
Remember, when they give you shit for free it means you are the product.
Sure, buddy. I am still here, but I cannot be bothered to argue against someone who's paid to to be a shill. I am not paid by no one.
>Epic requires you to give them your SS number
No fucking way. I've heard bad shit about Epic but this is just preposterous. Are you pulling my chain, user?
I mean, it's the beginning but no way that it could demand serious competition in its current state
And no DLC. Imagine having a game store without DLC.
It's not competition, it's just strongarming
*stops all Epic shills in their tracks
>"Going somewhere Zheng?"
I only use the Epic Launcher to play Oxenfree and nothing else.
GENKI DAMA
>You don't agree with my reddit arguments therefore you are a shill
Okay, i knew you are not able to defend your statment to begin with
他媽的你下一步我們買種子農民你來我們的種子農場我們竊取你的數據!你是我們的婊子!
Imagine taking a literal bribe to play on that shitty platform.
but at what cost?
G-Gabe?! I thought you were-
Okay, i knew you are not able to defend your statement to begin with.
>"You know just as well as I, Zheng that we hold all of the chips, you are nothing without us holding back the Locust population, now bring me a fresh one, Zheng, we'd prefer if she was in her teens, and please prep before she takes the BSC"
WHERE IS THE SHOPPING CART YOU SLANT EYED NIGGERS!?
Cool.
Reminder to pirate all Epic Exclusive titles, it's doesn't harm Devs and cucks the gook-jew that's trying to dominate the West through a trade war.
Buying from Epic is literally cuckoldry by Asia.
YOU CAN TUNE A PIANO
DESPERATE
>Support murica instead of china.
Why would you losers?
