Hi guys,

I was just checking my Epic Games account and I seem to have claimed around 360~ free games in the past years. I haven't purchased anything and I have 367 games overall (5-6 are free to play so I don't count them in)

How many you've got? :D

Zero. I don't like Epic and it's politics so I don't want to support them in any way. I even prefer to buy the same game on Steam than get for free in Epic

Steam takes 30 %, not over 30 %.

Also, Steam didn't kill Bandcamp.

No idea about the exact number, but I'm pretty sure I picked up every free game outside the very first one, and Dying Light due to region restriction. I did buy 4 games in total as well during various coupon sales too, especially when the 10€ off coupon was still a thing.

I think I played around 40 of the freebies and finished or at least invested a decent amount of time in roughly half of them. And there are definitely still quite a few games I want to try or continue.

a few, but I stopped collecting them a while back because I never played any of them and didn't even use eg launcher for anything else, so I uninstalled it and am happier than ever

108, according to GOG Galaxy. and I did at least try them all - we DO NOT +1 in this house! - but there were a LOT of duds. Okay, all of them but Grand Theft Auto 5, because I didn't feel like installing another launcher just for this one game I probably wasn't going to like anyway, to run through Epic's launcher, but I played all the others. I bought the ones I really liked on other platforms, and have since given Epic the boot; what they're offering is less and less interesting, and they're forcing their creepy social features on your more and more; free games or not, it just isn't worth it to me anymore. Besides, it's not like we don't all have backlogs; I'm currently working on my last unplayed Steam game, next is GOG, and after that... iunno SNES, maybe? Plenty of other fish; plenty of other seas; thanks for the memories.

It says 445, sounds about right considering that I claimed almost every free game since the start and have a few more from Prime Gaming and other things. I never bought a single thing in there tho.
This number does make me feel a bit guilty since I think I only played like two games in there so far.

And there are even some you can play without installing the crap client.
GeforceNow is your friend.

Heroic Launcher lets you play almost all games without using Epic's crap client. The only reason some are a problem is multiplayer drm afaik.

upside of GeforceNow is besides not having to use their launcher I don't have to install the 50-100 gb games either

I've claimed every game they gave for free except one. I've also purchased 5 or so games and some DLC.

I claimed like 150+ games until I realised i've never played any of them so I just uninstalled the epic launcher and stopped claiming them.

Been there from the very beginning and I have 420 currently - I'm pretty sure I haven't missed a single one so far.
