Peter - IK Multimedia Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 21 hours ago, Paul Young said: The free stuff was addons for games I don't have. It was pretty useless. Meanwhile Epic Games is doing giveaways. Thank you. Definitely have been picking up every free Epic offering. They're surprisingly good. Great or amazing? I guess that would be a stretch but they're overall pretty good. I already have Torchlight and even though that's old I really like the first two and would recommend them both. The third is on sale for the Steam Winter Sale right now but still a little worried about that one based on reviews and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleer Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I liked it. But that was on Xbox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeGBradford Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I've got so many games after the Ubisoft freebies I haven't got room to install the Epic ones yet until I decide which of the former are worth keeping! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Sorrels Posted December 23, 2020 Author Share Posted December 23, 2020 There is a website https://steamdb.info/ that will give you stats on your Steam collection. This morning here's my status: So 2662 games. Only 11 of which I've played more than 12 hours. GAS isn't just for plugins. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game developers would never make it in the DAW industry. It has gotten to the point where you need a 1TB Os drive for gaming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am selective about installing these Epic freebies. I have installed all that I purchased from them but only a couple of the free ones (including when Rocket League went free to play, though I already purchased that one on many platforms, many times over (including for other people). I missed Subnautica so I was hoping they'd repeat that one as I'd install that one right away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter - IK Multimedia Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 4 minutes ago, JoeGBradford said: Today's game is Inside Thanks for the reminder (though I already had it). Interesting to me, though, is that with the dailies they don't have a second option when the main is game that is 18+. I'm not complaining, but it is different than their normal giveaways where they offer a family-friendly game as well. But really, no complaints, just an observation. I believe they had hinted that the giveaways in general wouldn't happen even in 2020 and now it looks like they continue to go all in and I wouldn't be surprised to see the normal (weekly?) giveaways last well into or even through 2021. Let's hope the Unreal Engine keeps kicking ***** (more and continued use on high-visibility projects like The Mandalorian and in non-gaming industries like automotive and architecture surely help keep Epic profitable and we benefit) to allow for these freebies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter - IK Multimedia Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Just now, JoeGBradford said: Is it any good? Inside is quite good. It seems like a more cosmetically-enhanced Limbo experience on the surface and for me delivered a bit deeper and more interesting gameplay overall. Makes sense that six years later they'd have improved the formula so to speak, and Limbo is no slouch of a game by any means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I have ( Creed from last year ). Should I be doing something other than previously clicking that link in the OP which I did previously The Freebies ended about 4ish days ago, I think? Epic Games is still doing daily games though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
