I just did I myself.

Post-nutt clarity.

 

[Coloress_Kafka]

How long is your exclusivity agreement??? Can I hit it once it's over?

 

[TeKtheSanE]

I use Unreal Engine so I have to have it, but Epic Games Store isn't that bad. What are you ashamed of?

 

[The Cockatrice]

Crysis Remastered is worse than Epic Store so you should feel extra ashamed.

 

[Bonfires Down]

Ahh sunday threads.

Because they thought they can buy anyone, they just need to find what they value. They found I value Crysis :/
Also Epic Games client is one big ugly spyware - and I installed it voluntarily.

We will see, I am going to play it tonight.

I came close with Crysis Remastered but then I saw the comparisons with PC Crysis.

 

[Kokoloko85]

Lol why feel bad?
You get free games supposedly

Time to Valve to make games instead of relying on everyone else to make them rich

 

[Elektro Demon]

There's nothing to be ashamed. Steam is not the default launcher and I never quite understood people who pretend it's the one and only launcher/client/store.

I'm curious, what spyware do you think they are using? I've used this client for quite some time, is Epic stealing my debit card info? (I don't use credit cards, f that)

 

[Fbh]

Eh, it's fine.
Some good free games, some good sales, good regional pricing too.

Using GOG Galaxy 2.0 it hardly makes a difference if a game is on epic or steam.

I mean if a game is also on Steam I'll still get it there but Epic isn't the end of the world, and both are equally shit compared to GOG anyway.

A number of people have asked for evidence that EGS is malware, these articles refer to Android and EGS from Aug 2018.

Welcome to the dark side.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

I've claimed a ton of the free stuff, but still have not purchased anything and have no plans to do so for the foreseeable future. I came close with Control, but eventually just waited for the Steam release.

 

[ReBurn]

you'll be fine

suck it up

 

[MiguelItUp]

We should be passed the point of feeling bad, it's just how things on PC are. It's not changing anytime soon unfortunately.

If anything I feel bad that you installed it solely for that poor "remaster." It's pretty poor.

 

[yurqqa]

If things like this make you ashame, you need to see a shrink.

 

[thief183]

Gotta say that with all the bad games on Steam, IT is somewhat refreshing looking at Epic store and don't see all that crap... For now at least.

Also, the store is not that bad, and It doesn't disconnect as often as Steam lately.

This thread.

 

[Spaceman292]

OH NO YOU INSTALLED AN APPLICATION ON YOUR COMPUTER THE WORLD IS EEENNNDDDIIIINNNNGGGG

 

[CrustyBritches]

Now claim 100 free games to your account and never play them. The end.

 

[ScaryBrandon]

Welcome to the good side where the owners spend money to bring games on PC and also give games for free every week.

 

[CrysisFreak]

I ate too much McDonald's and now I feel bad. And good. But mostly fat.

 

[VN1X]

Yeah EGS is a laughable client compared to Steam and all of the features that offers.

Still I had to install it because of Rogue Company and Diabotical, I pretty much use it only for those two titles. Never bought a game on EGS and never will either.

 

[timmyp53]

Lol I've installed it and disabled auto startup like every other application in the world I use. Not sure why it's important at all. It's just a way to get and play games. I honestly care nothing about all these features people complain about.

 

[Cockles & Whelks]

As long as they keep the freebies coming I welcome my new Chinese overloads.

 

[keraj37]

It was worth it - game looks great

 

[LOLCats]

lol, you're dirty forever now

[Yselacrey00]

Pc gamers are the most cry baby persons in the industry. So you have to install another program? Big fucking deal.

 

[godhandiscen]

This is a victory for the CCP OP. You should uninstall it. Fuck the Epic Games Store and Tencent in particular.

 

[TheContact]

The epic client is worth it alone for the amazing free games they release.

 

[llien]

GoG client NATIVELY supports games you buy on EPIC store.
Go to integrations menu and simply enable it.

Steam is also supported, although, through community plugin.

 

[Guilty_AI]

You should feel ashamed for paying $30 for this instead of the original fixed version for $5 right now on GOG.

 

[Zog]

I installed the Epic client and I feel ashamed of it

So you post it on NeoGaf to extend your shame??

 

[Explosive Zombie]

I've got over 100 free games from Epic.

 

[adamosmaki]

i installed epic just to get Ark for free but honestly its so bad and the lack of mod support for games made me buy ark for a tenner on steam. since then never used epic again

 

[Snakeeyes646]

Ashamed? people are so bloody dramatic nowadays.

 

[Valt7786]

It's just a launcher, who gives a shit? Jesus.

Nice! I will use it - really BIG thanks for it!

maybe not crybabies, but complainers and grudge holders for sure... . For me its true, Ive been pitching a fit about facebook account linking requirement with oculus devices for weeks. I currently hold a grudge against corsair for over 2 years, i dont really like epic because moneyhat data miner garbage service, etc.

basically if PC gamers dont like something, they let everyone know about it (at every opportunity).

 

[manfestival]

You should feel more ashamed for buying crysis remastered. It like buying the upgrade of the worst version of the game.

 

[diffusionx]

Shame is a healthy emotion sometimes. This is one of those times.

 

[BertleTheTurtle]

I bought Hades on it with my $10 coupon for redeeming Rocket League. The launcher is nothing to write home about but it's not terrible either.
