There's still plenty of Epic haters who forget that Steam was hot garbage when it was new as well, they forget that EGS (as it currently is) is basically only a few years old and Steam has a 10+ year head start. And I've come to accept that having 15 launchers is just part of PC gaming, there's no getting around it (and yes, I know GOG Galaxy and Playnite exist, they still fire up the launcher needed to run your game). Personally, I think competition is a good thing, Steam's sales have been pure ASS for years yet people still crush their servers every time a new sale starts for the same old prices that you can find better deals 99% of the time elsewhere, and I'm not even talking about grey market key resellers, GMG, Fanatical, Humble, etc. often have sales at the same time as Steam and for better prices.

Hate all you want, I'll take all the free games they'll give me
it's utterly astounding that so many people can make this much of a big deal over a company offering FREE GAMES.

What is wrong with you people? You make us all look bad, and make this site a worse place to spend time.
I'm not an Epic nor Steam defender but some of this "logic" is just ridiculous.

By your own admission you state Steam is practically a monopoly, then you cry foul when Epic has an exclusive, are you serious? Also news flash, Sony and Microsoft both have consoles for their systems and have done so for decades, are they also bad because you can't play Halo on your Playstation or Uncharted on your Xbox? And you think neither of them have thrown money at a developer for an exclusive, be it timed or not? Another news flash: yes, they have, many times. It's just business.

Epic also takes a 12% cut (or so they say) vs. Steam taking 30% making it more friendly to the dev/pub.

I don't have any issues with the Epic launcher having a memory leak after being closed, cite your source.

And lack of reviews isn't a big deal, there's thing thing we're all on here called THE INTERNET, we're capable of doing our own research before buying. To be quite honest I never read Steam reviews anyway (unless they're funny) I prefer to watch Youtube footage and hit up Metacritic if I'm on the fence about buying a game.

And also as you mentioned, Steam has been around 5x longer than Epic, they've had a lot more time to refine and polish their platform, yet when a big Steam sale happens there's a day 1 crush and their site slows to a crawl.

I use Steam on a regular basis, I own over 1000 games on it, even freebies like I snag on Epic every week. I don't hate on Steam, I don't hate on Epic, I also don't hate on the fact that we PC players have to have 15 launchers to play our games, that's just the way it is. If you like Assassins Creed, you're gonna need Ubisoft Connect. If you like GTA V, you're going to need R* Launcher, and then there's games that require Battle.net, Bethesda Launcher, and so on.

You're going to have to come back with far better points other than "Epic bad because dumb reasons" to make a valid argument.

Can't checkout either, guess they're having GTA V style problems again.

Edit: checkout working now.

Also, if tomorrow's game is Mutant Zero then I'll be glad it's free. Played it on Game Pass, IMO a very poor man's XCOM, wasn't impressed but others might like it.

It's not working for me. I click on "Get" and the "wheel" on the purchase pop up just spins for awhile before bringing me back to the game page.

I tried to get the game two times using the launcher and both times it basically locked it up to the point where I had to go into Task Manager to force it to close. I ended up going through the site, which also had a slight hiccup the first try, but went through the second time. Maybe next time they shouldn't do an Early Access game, since this is the only time I've had this particular issue lol.

You must be new to claiming Epic freebies. They had major issues day 1 but that was also the same day that FF7R launched and they had MASSIVE issues when they gave away GTA V for free.

lol how far we've come eh? member when EGS first opened how butthurt everyone was, how dare another storefront and launcher come out when most people who just using Steam for everything. I haven't bought one game with money from EGS and I have a ton of games in my account to play, one day. What a time to be alive
I use their 10 dollar coupons every once in a while. You have to use it on a game thats at least 14.99 so you have to at least spend 5 bucks but thats worth it to me. Just got grime with it. Paid 10 bucks. I already played some of it on stadia when i had a free subscription so i already knew i would like it. I definitely wouldnt pay for stadia. It stuttered alot unlike game pass cloud games which very rarely do i have problems. Ill admit my internet could be the problem but like i said game pass cloud works fine. Sorry for the unrelated opinion Smilie

I think ive had what your explaining...i just clean out my cookies when that happens and it usually works. Could also try another browser if you happen to have one if you dont feel like messing around in settings. Although i would recommend cleaning out cookies often anyways.

I remember it took me a few tries to claim GTA V. Same for Shenmue III.

EGS needs to improve their website because this shouldn't happen.

It asks me to do the puzzle/captcha sometimes and other times it doesn't, I don't know why.

Day 1 of Steam sales tend to bomb their site too, I don't know why, it's always the same damn prices.

3 years to put a checkout shopping cart feature. . . I'm all for competition, but EGS is not a serious competitor with the lack of features their 'store' has.
That said, I still grab the free games via the web (launcher is never installed) and have built up a nice library.
I don't need features in a store. I just need cheap games.
