Epics Batman giveaway has been expanded - originally it only included the basic version of Arkham Knight, but now they're including the full season pass as well. People who already claimed it should get the DLCs automatically.

Nope this one is a week, and it says to check back for more free games on the 19th. They're just not saying what the game(s) will be in advance this time.

The Firewatch logo is a shield though, not a match (also the IP is now owned by Valve who probably aren't keen to work with Epic lol) Little Inferno is another possibility

Today is a second chance to get Celeste, which you should because it owns I think tomorrow's game is Totally Accurate Battle Simulator

I'm conflicted on Epic paying for exclusives, on one hand it's blocking competition but on the other hand what competition is there when Steam is a de-facto monopoly that 99% of PC gamers will default to no matter what, even if the game is cheaper on another launcher, or available DRM-free on GOG, or the Steam version is just a shim that launches another launcher to launch the game (e.g. Ubisoft games). Steam is simply too entrenched for a new store to get any traction naturally, even if a store launched with 1:1 feature parity to Steam people still wouldn't use it because their existing library is on Steam, their friends are on Steam, the Steam workshop has more content, the Steam discussion boards and guides are more populated, etc, etc. Throwing money around like Epic and Microsoft are with gamepass is the only way they're going to get their foot in the door and maybe get some organic non-subsidised traffic once people have been coaxed into installing their launcher and making an account by all the subsidised stuff. Epic does need to dump more resources into actually improving their launcher though. I can live without most of the stuff Steam has but come on, at least add achievement tracking

Remember when Reddit made a huge deal about EGS  reading system root certificates as if that's not something that literally any browser or app that otherwise loads web pages has to do lolEGS doesn't have a perfect track record (pulling friends into from Steam was questionable) but people are loving desperate to smear it to the point of spouting absolute nonsense

Zesty posted:Epic is absolutely competing with Steam. They’re literally undercutting them and doing deals to keep games off of Steam. If you don’t think there’s competition you are coming so far out of left field I don’t even know where a conversation with you can go. that's bad competition, good competition is where consumers have a choice but network effects cause them to all choose the same option

Stickman posted:Apparently there's a leaked EGS game list on reddit that's been accurate so far. Besides tomorrow's Talos Principle the remaining games are The two games they repeated from previous giveaways (Celeste and Hyper Light Drifter) weren't on the leaked list though, so I wonder if two of those games pulled out and the repeats were a last minute replacement.

Coolguye posted:the difference is whether or not the developer has made a mac port natively or if they are using Steam Play to make it happen. shadow tactics does not have a native mac build and only runs on mac because steam's tools make it easy. Shadow Tactics is on the Mac App Store though, surely that's a native port? My guess is they might have outsourced the Mac port to another company and there's complications with licensing it.
