Also probably a dwelling of some kind to be in while you do that. Not very "free" you fucks!

Im tempted by the possibility of Death Stranding Yes, luckily a lot of the free games you get can be installed and then just run from its folder so you dont have to deal with its trash launcher. Though I doubt Death Stranding will allow that.

Im tempted by the possibility of Death Stranding yup! you don't even need to install the app to claim stuff, you can just click a button on https://store.epicgames.com/ and have the free games added to your account although you will need the storefront app when you actually install+play the game

Not very "free" you fucks! Can confirm the last one at least is not true, I've claimed free games before on my phone while waiting at traffic lights.* *Results may vary. E: also re the launcher, since I installed Playnite I've forgotten which store i even got most of my games from, can't recommend it enough

Im tempted by the possibility of Death Stranding Yes but you can create one just by linking an account from a big list of possibilities, like google/steam/Nintendo/apple/etc. You don’t even have to type in the email address you’re giving them…

I would like to add that Epic is fully integrated in GOG Galaxy. This should be more widely known.chadbear posted:Ever since EGS added the cart this thread is down one joke They did? I genuinely didn't notice, and I don't know how to feel about that.

Death stranding was I think the singularly most iconic video game of the last decade, and the initial preview videos showing what kind of game it was wasn't really interesting but I ended up watching that video by the Kotaku guy and I watched a few hours of it, and I saw it was on GameFly after it came out so I just went and got it, tried it out and I think I only got about 2 or 3 hours into it before I was like just hooked and couldn't put it down for however long it took me to beat the game, something like 120 hours maybe? But what I did instead was I as soon as I had to return the game, I turned around and went out and bought the game and I easily think it was the best game of 2019, and I really think that it if people had no barrier to play the game like getting it for free tomorrow, and if they gave it a chance, instead of just thinking it's a walking simulator that it would probably be really fun. So I'm excited for people to try it because I absolutely adore that game

Maybe one day Nintendo will get a cart. And maybe not do multiple transaction emails, where it first buys Nintendo money with your card and then another where it buys the game. OgNar fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Dec 25, 2022 |

I think it might just be the base game. I can't tell because the servers are getting swamped

If y'all like free games you should check out a page back on the Steam thread right now. (e: Last post on p2445)

EGS is at level of hosed that even steam never reached. Logon page will redirect to the store homepage so no way to execute on any action on the store.

We're not going to get Death Stranding after all. :-/

I feel like I got lucky being able to 'purchase' it but now the site is so hosed that trying to download it just leads to a login loop.

I just was able to redeem it on the launcher, gently caress me up Kojima-san!

I can open the launcher but when I try to claim it, it logs me out

epic logged me out over night apparently and won't even send me to the login screen when i click the button on the website, so that's nice

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:i wonder how populated the mp is for death stranding on epic? The Epic and Steam versions share the same servers from what I can tell, and when I played through it back in July it seemed decently active. Lots of little structures, dropped packages, and likes from people using my poo poo. Helps that it's asynchronous.

I managed to log into the launcher... and it's asking me to pay for the game, even though it's "100% off".
|
# ? Dec 25, 2022 18:01 |

Same. I clicked "get" and the button immediately turned into "buy game" and $30 appeared where it previously said $0.00. Now the EGS webpage is down.

Now the store page doesn't even offer it as free. Guess they didn't expect this response and the servers are completely dead.

I see the game on the free section of the store's main page, but the game's page just says it's 40% off of $54.99CAD. This didn't even happen when they gave away GTA5, did it?

# ? Dec 25, 2022 18:17 |

I'm guessing they made it not be free until the activity dies down. Unless they actually ran out of keys, then lol.

# ? Dec 25, 2022 18:19 |

It's been swapped to the base edition being free. Still can't login though. lol.

# ? Dec 25, 2022 18:22 |

Are there at least mods for the standard edition to change out the Monster Energy cans?
|
# ? Dec 25, 2022 18:25 |
|
I was able to go to the standard edition and get that for free. Wonder if they will catch poo poo for the main page saying the director's cut version is free, and a bunch of people did get that for free, but now only the standard one is free. Or maybe they will retroactively change people's free director's cut to the standard version. Thinking about it, I'm guessing it was always supposed to be the standard version in order to get a bunch of 5 dollar upgrades sold.

lol, navigated to the non-director's cut version, saw it listed as free, tried to grab and doing so mysteriously logged me out of the store. WTF Epic

# ? Dec 25, 2022 18:29 |

The main page is now corrected. The standard version is now linked as being free.
