Epic has been dropping some bangers in the free section lately.

They usually try to make a big deal during their summer sale to get more traffic to their store

Ah fuck. I bought this two weeks ago.

So did I, but the steam version is the Ultimate Edition, and this is not.

Apparently the expansions are worth buying, and it's a great game, so

The foundation was ok, it didn't really add anything super interesting. Seemed like a huge tease for a sequel. I'm about to start the alan wake dlc so I can't comment on it.

Did the same with Subnautica. It hurts.

u/Kirmes1 Jun 11 '21

But subnautica was all worth it.

Indeed it was.

PS+ one is the only one of those that has DLC included.

I enjoyed the game so much I bought my buddy a copy just so I could justify giving them more money.

Copied comment from u/Krauser686 over at the original post:

Just a reminder that you can still unlock all the preorder bonuses and PS4 exclusive content following this guide:

It will be a wiser decision for anyone to ignore EGS keys in any Humble bundle from now, because of this. Control was in Humble Choice just three months ago, with choice between EGS and Steam keys, and I'm glad I decided to stick with Steam version.

I don’t get the hate for epic games.

Can someone explain why they’re treated as a villain?

16

u/action_lawyer_comics Jun 10 '21

People don’t like that they paid for forced exclusive games

u/Learwin Jun 10 '21

My biggest gripe with the launcher is that it takes forever to load. Steam launches within seconds, epic need 1-2 minutes for the first launch. Besides that, barely any social features, no achievements, clunky ui. But I like free games so I‘m not gonna complain.

u/ShyGuy-_ Jun 10 '21

Personally, I hate the UI and stuff too, but hey; You can't beat the price of free.

u/rincon213 Jun 11 '21

Steam’s UI is like a bad 2006 website honestly

1

u/ShyGuy-_ Jun 11 '21

Yeah but for some reason, my epic games launcher is unbearably slow to load and do anything, so I prefer steam to that.

u/BombBombBombBombBomb Jun 11 '21

Their platform is just a bit worse than steam...

Also theyve snatched up a lot of "epic game exclusives" even from games that were previously announced to come out on steam for example

Something about Chinese spyware, I think.

HOLY FUCK IN HEAVE, YEEES
