I guess I'll wait a few months for when they go to steam. THEN I'll choose.

Seriously, taking a look at Hades or John Wick Hex and not watching any reviews is too risky

I'll probably pick up the last season of The Walking Dead. Might let it ride, though, what with The Backlog and all.

Stories Untold was awesome, so with the $10 discount I was thrilled to grab Observation. Also looking at Heavy Rain, but I found the whole Fahrenheit control scheme mostly too frustrating to play, and since all these Quantic Dreams games seem to be pretty much the same thing I don't know if I want to drop ten bucks on it.

Probably gonna get The Walking Dead Season 3 (New Frontier) and Final Season.

slime rancher was a better deal when they gave it away last month

i through it's free but no way, i won't move to Epic Game Store

Looking through the games, all it means is that it's about 30%-75% off regular price which is the same as steam sales, which means no reason to get anything on epic other than the free games. The $10 off $15 at checkout is misleading because there isn't a cart to add up to $15 like every other site.

Don't forget that the sale also covers certain preorders, which includes the incoming ports of Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls, and Detroit : Become Human. DBH is still expensive even with the sale, but the other two are about £6-7 each.

This is how Epic should be trying to win customers. Great sales is how Steam became such a force in the gaming world. But maybe get your agreements sorted out with the people who are selling on your platform first, yeah? That, the lack of a cart system in the store, and other such fumbles like banning people who make rapid purchases(due to lack of cart system) doesn't breed any degree of trust. Buying out pre-established games that are already on steam comes across as a pure abuse of spending power to corner the market, which again casts a heavy shadow on peoples trust. When EA created Origin, there were major objections there, but those were related to specific issues with the EULA pertaining to data protection (and the hamfisted forced migration to Origin in all existing games where it wasn't necessary), but even then you could understand what EA wanted their own pre-existing properties to be sold within their own distribution platform instead of paying some other company for it. This? I dunno. I want to give them a chance but I don't trust them. It reeks of 'upper management knows whats best for you, the little people', the whole being divorced from basic function and consideration.

That said, I grabbed Heavy Rain because I love story-driven stuff, and loved Fahrenheit despite its second-half collapse and the full ham overload. If Epic would stick to purchasing the rights to create ports of various console exclusives they could win a lot of support, IMO.

Epic Micro Sale, not Mega.

no buy gg easy

I got my first 3 (non-free) Epic games in this sale: Hades, the Subnautica addon and Operencia. The exclusive titels were never a big selling point for me, since with my huge backlog of games I don't really buy fullprice games as soon as theyn get released anyway, but with that good of a deal I don't mind firing up a different client.

Bump, this thread is nicely organized, thank you for creating it! I would also maybe add some of the pre-order titles to the list like Heavy Rain, Detroit Become Human, etc. Also, the original Subnautica is discounted in my region (JP), so it might depend on regions as well?

Epic has not done a great job in managing PR and customer experience in the launch of its store, but I do think in the long run it will be good for gamers and the gaming industry to be able to have more options and also hopefully less "platform-lock" mentality in the end.

Epic Mega Sale?! I'm saving money for the Steam Summer Sale! Oh yeah!

Bump, added Journey! This one is a great experience!

Bought Journey, thinking about Afterparty and TWD Final Season. Pretty cool.

The Walking Dead: Final Season will be someday on Steam or only on Epic Store forever?

Bought Journey. x)
