A free game's a free game. Tho im not too thrilled about it being on EGS...

You can access the games through Heroic Launcher or Legendary, no need to use Tim Sweeney's shitty bloatware

That's good to know! It does feel slower than Steam for some reason, so I may be jumping ship is I can

It takes more data to load basically any page except the store where it's about equal, that's probably the difference you're feeling.

That’s literally the only reason I keep EGS around, because of the weekly free games.

If I live to 100 I probably won’t work through that backlog.
