Gearbox ate shit and quit Epic Store deals, Remedy ate shit (but their Alan Wake deal is infinite), Square Enix cried that their sales failed on EGS, and so on.

Exclusive deals on EGS are a dead end. And Lords of the Fallen II is dead on arrival now.

Epic Store market share on PC is about 3-6% (depends on the report), while Steam holds over 70% of transactions and even more in playtime. After 6 years, EGS is still nowhere near.

Callisto Protocol is free (yet again) on Epic Store. During the last few years, the game got much more stable and optimized, so you can run it on an average GPU. And facial animations look very impressive, one of the best ever, but the game is kinda mediocre at best.

And you have to agree to three different contracts and skip four promotional screens to get to the actual game.

Disco Elysium is free on Epic Store for one day, so let me explain the game, if you haven't heard of it. Here's how I died during my first two hours of gameplay:

— I woke up and died right away
— I jumped to get my sock and died
— Flirted with the girl and died
— Ran from an old lady on a wheelchair
— Kicked the rubbish bin
— Argued with the nasty kid
— Argued with the creepy worker

Perfect simulator of being 35, 10/10

Trine Classic Collection is free on Epic Store (4-in-1). I have all the games already, but go grab it, if you missed the series somehow. One of the best games with local co-op.

Hogwarts Legacy is free (again) on Epic Store. For me the game is both a great theme park and a horrible Hogwarts experience:

- You're in school, but classes are very brief and limited. The whole experience of Persona series, Bully, etc. is ignored.

- Barely any friendship with just a few real characters. For 90% of the time you're alone or hang out with teachers.

- Nothing is even remotely believable (even by Harry Potter standards). It's literally a theme park.

You kill 5000+ humans and goblins proudly shifting the blame to another character. Even without unforgivable spells, the hero is a damn maniac.
