Do the free games count as purchases?

Obligatory fuck Tim Sweeney.

Epic is a trash heap now. They will continue to receive none of my business.

Epic’s corporate overlords don’t have an original thought rattling around in their collective heads. Their entire business model is to flail around, copy anything that seems remotely successful with a reskin, and hope it sticks. Not even free products will convince me to download their laucher, or anything they put their mierdas touch on.

I'm not interested in giving away cash to a company that doesn't respect it's competition, it's customers or it's employees.

Understandable, have around 100 games from Epic... Haven't paid a dime tough.

Why unfortunate? Surely competition to Steam is a good thing?

Bought my first game on epic this year: Alan Wake 2.

Purchases, or just giveaways? Epic only gives away games that people try, then go and buy on Steam.
