    Call me a moron, but haven’t even made an account on epic yet. Missed out on all the free games because Steam made ‘year of the linux desktop’ a reality, and I wanted to appreciate them for that. Sweeny made it an easier choice with his comments and stance on a linux epic client.

    I have always wondered if Devs still get a bit of cash from the free games. I hope they do and Epic gets nothing.

    At the moment, i’m sitting at 268 titles, of which I’ve paid for a grand total of 2. I deeply regret it too.

    Couldn’t wait for Satisfactory to release on Steam, and grabbed that. It’s just super inconvenient to launch from EGS.

    The other was Division 2, which I got on a gigantic discount. I had to contact support on both sides, because they sold me a code that wouldn’t activate properly

    400+, paid for 0. Won’t give them a dime until Sweeney stops with his anti-linux shenanigans, and the “buying exclusivity” thing doesn’t make me too happy either

      Not telling you to buy something from them but just know that they are deleting the accounts that spend nothing.

          Weird enough I cannot find it either anymore. It was a Reddit post. Gotta mark my previous comment in strikethrough.
