also who uses epic games
Well I use the website to get the free games. I barely missed any so far and played like 5 of them using Heroic.
Better sales than Steam and free games all the time? What idiot is actively avoiding them?
I actively avoid it on principle. Same with EA, Ubisoft, and Activision. Buy stuff that aligns with your values and don't cave just because we need to try the shiny new thing.
A few free games every year isn't enough to get me to forgo any of that.
That's a lot of games I can't play based on what you've said.
Yeah and if you don't have similar principals to mine it'll continue to feel like a sacrifice that may or may not be worth pursuing.
Truthfully I don't feel like I'm missing out at all. Those developers have been pumping out trash for years.
Helping steam keep its monopoly isn't much of a principle.
But I like proton... (I know I can use proton for non steam games)
