A bit weird that their big christmas giveaway is something they already gave away before, I noticed it's in my library for a while now.

Bro, if you really want to fuck with Epic, keep downloading all their free games and not buying anything.

In their investor meeting, they will have to reveal that for every 100 people who download a game only 5 people pay for it. This will show they have poor customer conversation capacity. The investors will lose it.

I have 400+ games from Epic and I've given them $0.00

I will never play any of the games. Ever.

Fuck Epic.

I'll literally buy a game on Steam even if I own it on Epic. Fuck Epic.

Not really, they will show that so many people visited the site, they already have so much potential customers.

I used to do that. Epic refused to play nice with my VPN forcing me to constantly re login with their crappy fucking captchas. The store was so annoying to use it wasn't worth dealing with for free games, certainly made sure I'd never spend money there.
