Next week is Legion TD 2, a coop PVE MOBA
Meanwhile, if Steam gives away a free game, you only get old shitty games.
>>715750754 (OP)Problem 1: you need to install Epic, a known chinese owned malware platform
Problem 2: Civ 4 is the best one
>>715750754 (OP)>Meanwhile, if Steam gives away a free game, you only get old shitty games."Steam" doesn't give away games, tardo. Valve doesn't need to bribe people to use their platform. Any time you see a free game on Steam it's the developer themselves giving it away.
>>715750832>Problem 1>Problem 2We really need to find a final solution for this
>>715750754 (OP)Blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Don't care about free games. I care about convienence. You don't get it. You never get it. You still don't understand Timmy. And that's why I'll never use EPIC. Because you think throwing cheese on a trap is feeding your consumer.
>>715750882Steam developed the feature to give them away.
>>715750754 (OP)THANK YOU BASED TIM
meanwhile the goyim will continue to slop up steam games and their payment processor masters
>>715751024Well they don't use bad cheese, they use gouda cheese
Cheese

>>715751407>Tim loves me and cares about me, and has nothing to do with business!Accept your "free" gift, faggot, but don't pretend he's any better than Valve.
free is still to expensive for civ 6
wow a 5 dollar game for free
man what happened to the free games budget?
Sorry but ill play civ 5 bnw instead
>>715751407Tom Sweeney got payment processored 7 years ago
>>715751738>>715751734Worst part is platinum edition doesnt even have a the DLCs for it.
Standard Paradoxslop move despite it being Take Two. Make the base game cheap while pumping out endless DLC.
I've claimed several years' worth of games with zero intention of ever downloading the launcher.
>>715750754 (OP)no thanks. i don't ever want epic launcher
EPIC doesn't understand that there is no competition with Valve/Steam. Valve competes with piracy. EPIC isn't even in the equation. There's either get the game pirated, or get it on Steam with all its features. If you compete with Steam, you don't do it by the games. You do it by the user experience.
If tomorrow every single game going forward went to EPIC, I'd just return to piracy or continue playing my current collection since nothing good gets released anyway.
YOU. CAN'T. WIN. I love seeing your melty, Tim. Bet you're crying right now, bitch.
>dev sells only 8 games on epic
You couldn't pay me play civ
That shit is for boring old boomers
>>715750754 (OP)EGS should do something revolutionary if it wants to beat Steam. Something like being able to gift games that you own or sell them to friends. That would be a guaranteed switch of platforms for me.
>>715752056>reddit postIs this the best argument steamies have. Literall reddit posts from who's
>>715752516Would need security measures like it being a one time only exchange so the friend can't just give it back or to anybody else.
>>715752538It was proven. Some anon looked up his name and what games he had and where. As to actual sales figures, who knows. But the reddit user was indeed tied to the games so no reason to believe he was lying.
Accept reality, Tim. It's over, and you aren't getting that money back. You're going the way of your protégé CliffyB.
>>715750754 (OP)>the clever little Steam rage bait at the end>the already numerous replies arguing about itwow it really works, rage marketing works and you're all dumbass niggers who fall for it every time lmao
>>715752682Discussion board, faggot. I love bashing EPIC every chance I get. You posted in the thread as well to complain about complainers, so good job.
>>715752682>rage marketinglmao bro epicshills have been trying to ragebair for ages and it never worked
>>715752891it's all this website is anymore
twitter ragebait, reddit ragebait, virtual anime tranny vtuber ragebait, it's all bullshit all the way down
>>715752598just put a 1 year lock on each game that gets gifted.
by the time the lock ends the game's value has probably decreased and I doubt people will wait years to exploit a reverse trade back
>>715752598Oh, I see how freely gifting would cause issues. Perhaps make the free gifting limited and tax the selling of games.
>>715750754 (OP)Holy shit, that website is bad.
You should be happy that people aren't using this trash, because as soon as it's successful the free games will stop. At least you should be if you weren't paid to post this.
>>715752516You know that publishers don't want that and you should know that an online store doesn't work like a grocery store selling cans of soup.
>>715753437lmao who gives their friends a can of soup
>>715750754 (OP)I usually take free games without hesitation, but not this one for some reason.
Didn't even cross my mind that I wouldn't install civ 6 even for free, but now I know.
>>715750754 (OP)>you can get a decade old game for freeI guess that is fine for you.
But I already played that shit forever ago
>>715752516>gift games that you own or sell them to friendsno publisher would agree to this, no matter the store. its easier to just use the gray market sites and get cheap as fuck games
>>715750754 (OP)civ 6 is a 'new' shitty game tho
>>715750754 (OP)been a while since i last played how do i win again?
steamtimmies..... our response?
>>715750754 (OP)its so ugly i dont think i can bring myself to play it.
>>715755815>its so ugly i dont think i can bring myself to play it.What's wrong with it? CIV 5 cleaned up the few bad parts of 4.

Apparently my brother has it. Remind me why I need Epic again.
>>715750832>you need to install Epic, a known chinese owned malware platformReally? I just use Heroic. Works fine as wine.
>>715756737does dlc work with family sharing
>>715757158That got fixed when they did the whole Steam Families revamp last year.
>>715758216Unless it's selling games
>>715758216At not winning market share, they have users, but barely paying users. Everyone's freeloading
>>715750754 (OP)>crashesWhat a pile of fucking shit. Dumb faggots never fixed this shitty game before moving on to the next dumpster fire.
>>715758790They do have paying users, but it's for Fortnite and Rocket League over everything else.
>>715754373>>715755649so you guys take this pretty seriously?
>>715750754 (OP)The wokest civilization, after the new one.
>>715750754 (OP)Based. At least with Epic I don't have to worry about my games being taken away by a payment processor at a whim.
>>715752669What games were they though? Some shovelware that only retards buy on steam sale?
>>715764298Probably, but completely irrelevant. The point is business, and which platform provides the most for the developer. EPIC is touted as the platform for developers, but it lacks the most important thing a business needs: Customers. And you don't get customers without the proper customer-focused mindset first and foremost.
I get people hating Steam. I get people hating DRM. What I don't get is anyone who would prefer EGS or Steam. That one makes zero sense. Free games? Yeah, sure. If you're not buying games, it's definitely the place to be. That's why I'm 100% sure that 99% of the people in favor of EGS on this board are people who do not buy games, or are shills. No other explanation.
The features and convenience Steam brings beats EGS in every single department, it's not even an argument. GoG vs Steam arguments I get; it's a matter of disagreeing on how games should be owned/distributed. But EGS is a preference that stims only from an irrational hate of Valve. Like an Epic employee.
>>715765818If any launcher was good besides Steam, it wouldn't be an issue.
>surely you like browsing web pages to access your own library>that's not faggoty at all>who are you quoting?>oh, me? good, because I'm a raging faggot
>>715756525this is civ 6 not civ 5, its looks like a disgusting mobile game
>>715750754 (OP)Civ6 has 2 expansions? What?
>>715765997To add to this, I've never seen one of these epic posters say why they prefer EGS. Can you give a single reason that isn't free games? I dare you.
>>715766165Oh nvm, I was thinking it was civ7
>>715765818Monopolies are bad because they can lead to a degradation of quality. Using something that is way worse than the supposed monopoly does not help with that.
If you want people to use your garbage you will have to put some actual effort in. I'm sorry, Timmy.
So do you even play those free games?
>>715766348That turd had 2 expansions already?
>>715750754 (OP)This is a tough decision.
Redeeming it would make Epic lose money but it would also reward Wokaxis for creating that piece of shit so it might be better not to
>>715768332Oh wait, I thought it was the new Civ game but that's Civ7. Fuck there are too many of these out already
>>715766216See
>>715768076. He could have responded, but he has nothing.
im never installing epic
not that i have any interest in civ after it went woke anyway
Why doesn't EGS just improve their store?
>>715768875Why would you spend 2 million on some decent software devs if you could spend 2 billion on exclusives and free games? It's truly a mystery, you can't even check your library on their website.
>>715769072Which is insane, since the client has no non-browser features.
Thanks for the 519 games, Tim Epic.
Money spent on Epic: $0
>>715767991This. Steam has done nothing but add value and functionality to both its storefront and library functionality, now incorporating things like custom controller mapping, etc directly into the interface. No other storefront is even trying to be as robust and user friendly as Steam.
>>715768875>look up mods to fix how shitty and garish the game looks>all the videos are using steam modsEGS games are always gimped and annoying in some way
>>715764298>Some shovelwareYou're a fucking retard the shovelware devs are the ones who should be most willing to jump ship to epic for the flat payout and great % take and it still doesn't make up for it.
I like how most Epic games have zero DRM and can be launched without the launcher
Installing epic is exactly like installing an Indian antivirus program.
