Yes, I downloaded the Epic Launcher just over a year ago when me and my friends decided to try out Fortnite. Since then it has been great. I have been enjoying the free games every two weeks, and it makes it really easy to connect with other friends who are playing. Haven't encountered any of those 'viruses' or 'account leaks' yet.



Yes, they seem to give out free games fairly often so why not.

I do not believe this poll. No one says no to free games.

The Witness is the current free game and I'm not getting it because I'm not interested in it. That's also why I didn't get Slime Rancher either and some other free games from GOG or the Humble Store in the past.

There's no reason to get a game if you're not going to play it.



Please excuse my bad English.

Currently gaming on a PC with an i5-4670k@stock (for now), 16Gb RAM 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070

Steam / Live / NNID : jonxiquet    Add me if you want, but I'm a single player gamer.

I did it for the free games, but don't have their client installed, I got rid of it after the whole spying thing debacle. Instead, I redeem the free games on their website.

That and if you already own it as well.



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

I was not even aware that they gave free games til reading this thread. Ive just been using their launcher for fortnite.



Yes, I did it to get Subnautica for free. But playing Subnautica made me realize how bad their store really is. There's no offline mode so if the store ever gets taken down, your games you bought are gone forever. That makes Steam look like a Saint in comparison. GoG is the ultimate store though. If only more games came to it. :(



There should be a launcher for all these launchers.

I’ll be honest - you might as well quit gaming while you are at it.

There’s far bigger issues to worry about than a store going down.

Yeah, I never understood that line of thought. "If I can't have something forever, I don't want it at all. Enjoying the time with something while it lasts is no option."

With that attitude you will never buy a pet (it will die in a few years anyways) or marry (perhaps she dies before me or leaves me after a few decades/years) or buy a cars (which probably won't last more than two decades, perhaps even sooner after a car accident).



Nope. I haven't even signed up to Steam (I really don't play on my laptop, it's super weak).
