After going to checkout and clicking purchase Epic is telling me that my account is not allowed to download any more free games for the next 24 hours. Does anybody know if I this is solvable without waiting 24 hours?
And if you don’t mind hard games with a lot of dying. I died about 600 times on the first boss, no joke. But the game doesn’t make you wait between deaths, and they all felt fair. It’s the good kind of hard game.
I use Epic launcher for all my Unreal work, so I have it installed and open it daily. Still, I can’t be bothered to turn on the games store and redeem free games - while willingly paying for new ones on Steam. The UX is just that bad.
(I assume some people may find value in it, all I’m saying is: it is not for me)
How is it bad for a game to only be available through a shitty CCP subsidiary’s shitty storefront that no one wants to contaminate their computer with?
Dredge is amazing. If you don’t like Epic, please consider buying it elsewhere. The devs deserve the support and you’ll definitely get your money’s worth. Cosy cosmic horror fishing game turned out to be an excellent combination.
I’m a self proclaimed valve fanboy, I use Linux with proton and wine-ge, and I buy games on the epic store. I try not to have purchasing biases, if the price is good on epic and it’s feature parity with other PC storefronts, I’ll buy it on epic and install with heroic launcher. I’ve only ran across a few games that don’t have feature parity with steam, the biggest being that remnant doesn’t have cloud saves on epic. However, these cases are few and far between and most of the time I’m fine buying on epic.
Exclusives are a cancer. At least if you made them, i could somewhat understand. But paying third party developers to not sell their game on certain platforms is stupid.
That is a matter of opinion ofc… When it comes to mod development, they are by far, the best company I have ever seen. I even had the chance to talk with some of the game developers, when I was modding 2 of their games, and hey were very very willing to engage with the community. One of the games I modded was XCOM2, and they practically gave you EVERYTHING. You could almost compile the whole game on your own, such was the extent of the tools they provided (which was built over UDK 3). And when compared to other companies like Bethesda, they are light-years ahead.
What is in your opinion, specifically that makes them a company with “shitty development”? Care to elaborate? For someone with so much certainty about the topic, surely you most know how the games are developed and how the development tools work. Eager to engage in this discussion, in great detail!
Did they ever open up Civ VI’s code the way they did for IV and V? Prior to VII coming out, they hadn’t left any way for modders to do the kind of deep dive total conversion mods which happened with the older games.
I visited Games Gathering Kyiv before the full-scale war, there, among small indie booths, was the booth where the developers showcased this game. They are young guys from Kyiv, Ukraine. I had a little chat with them. Once guys and a gal. There, I played it, and, obviously, bought it as soon as it became available on Steam, to support fellow Ukrainians. The game is very funny. I had a great time playing it even before its release.
