I can’t remember the last time anyone actually played the game they got for free on epic’s store
Kerbal Space Program, Civilization 6, Hogwarts Legacy. All games nobody ever played…
I 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.
I'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.
I play Brotato fairly often. I am not sure I have played any of the other free games I’ve gotten though.
I played hogwarts legacy for about an hour before realising it was boring, does that count?
Citizen Sleeper, the game that is going free tomorrow on the Epic store is really good. Space Cyberpunk themed RPG/Survival Sim.
It 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.
