Epic games store shadiness?

441 70 December 28, 2019 at 07:39 AM
When I go to the Epic games store, after logging in the prices jump (some enormously).

Some examples:

Ancestors: the Humankind Odyssey
Not logged in: $14.99
Logged in: $19.99

Control:
Not logged in: $16.07
Logged in: $40.19

This makes their current $10 coupon on $14.99 and above look like a carnival-style game.

It's legal it's called "dynamic pricing".

You can avoid all this nonsense by playing a manly game like Rugby.

All you need to play Rugby is leather balls.
