This thread is for everything concerning Epic and its grandmother. New game release? New exclusive? New freebie? Something fishy? Just post it here.

Hopefully, this will reduce the amount of Epic threads that gets created on a daily basis as soon as someone on that company sneezes.

first?

Epic bad. GoG good.

What if it's UnEpic?

epic games sucks, the only reason there store exists is cos little kids bought shit in fortnite and they made a store off that fortune they made. i think alot of people are sick of battleroyale games and looter shooters

The Outer World is an epic game launcher exclusive https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMUsW4xEs9k

Not entirely, it'll also be on the Microsoft store

Pro Argument:
With all the gobbeling up of exclusives after the 1y grace period more bigger games might more easily release on gog then before since it might matter less to the devs ("Ok Bob, now steam?" "Sure sure" "What about gog?" "Yeah, whatever, don't bother me".)

Neutral:
Its the same smut as steam (ok, a bit worse). As fan of DRM free singleplayer games nothing but the name on that other store which gets it (first) changes. That would just delude the diverse subtopics; some ppl just might not want to talk about a game and having to many in one post will be a total mess. You could turn it into a directory of sorts though.

At this point we need an Epic Games subforum. :P
On a more serious note, this 'megathread' is a great idea. :)

Extensive and comprehensive chart about the positive and negative aspects of Epic:

Not DRM free, but GOG is:)

So it just as well might be an exclusive.

I guess it depends on your perspective. If you're looking at it from a 'No DRM-Free, No Buy' perspective tons of games have been exclusive over the last decade xD

No, I was looking from the perspective that no one uses MS store.

Fair point :p
