Been playing NI Oh and liking it more than i did on PS4, I think the shorter loading times are managing my tilt.

game can be absolutely fucking bullshit sometimes though lmao, but it sorta levels out as it goes on and you get better gear/OP spells and skills

Will PC Building Simulator prepare me for building a PC in the same way Hitman trained me to become an international assassin?

Quote

We’re excited to announce the initial rollout of the Epic Achievements system is on its way, including a set of tools for developers to activate platform Achievements quickly and easily. That means that starting next week, you can begin collecting XP by earning Epic Achievements in select games.

Over the last year, we’ve worked closely with some of our development partners to bring Epic Achievements to life. Thanks to their help, once we launch, you can start racking up XP in these games: Rocket League, Hades, Pillars of Eternity, Kena, Zombie Army 4, Alan Wake Remastered, and more. We’re working to get these tools to more developers, so you can expect to see Epic Achievements popping up in your favorite games later this year.

How do XP and Epic Achievements work?
Epic Achievements are sorted into four tiers based on their XP value, with the Platinum Achievement being awarded upon earning 1000 XP in a game. Here are the Epic Achievement tiers and the amount of additional XP you get for the Achievement:

Bronze = 5-45 XP
Silver = 50-95 XP
Gold = 100-200 XP
Platinum = 250 XP

Do I want this store front/launcher on my nice shiny new PC or is this just shitty chinese spyware that's going to let the CCP track my weird internet habits?

chronovore · « **Reply #308 on:** November 27, 2021, 11:06:50 PM »

It’s free real estate.

I’ve got a mess of free games on my PC, including several for which I’d planned to pay money.

The Chinese will think twice about messing with America once they see what I was googling at 3am this morning.

Guild of Dungeoneering is harder than I expected. It's oddly relaxing at the same time. I'm confused.

GreatSageEqualOfHeaven · « **Reply #312 on:** December 17, 2021, 04:04:19 AM »

Shenmue 3 is at about what I'd be prepared to pay for it for the next 4 hours or so

Also looks like they're doing a freebie a day for the next couple of weeks

Ghoul · « **Reply #313 on:** December 17, 2021, 04:41:00 AM »

Added it to my list, I doubt I'll ever play it though.

pilonv1 · « **Reply #314 on:** December 17, 2021, 07:16:29 AM »

I don't think I've even installed a single game I've gotten for free from EGS. Not expecting Shenmue 3 to break that streak

Ghoul · « **Reply #315 on:** December 17, 2021, 08:35:34 AM »

I installed Jurassic Park Evolutions, it's pretty fun tbh.

MMaRsu · « **Reply #316 on:** December 17, 2021, 09:03:56 AM »

You'd have to pay me to play Shenmue III

Skullfuckers Anonymous · « **Reply #317 on:** December 17, 2021, 12:53:32 PM »

It’s not free, but the GOTY is $6 after coupon.

It's an Armored Core knock off that is only a few years old and still catches a good price. It's also a decent game if you're into that stuff.

naff · « **Reply #323 on:** January 23, 2022, 11:34:11 PM »

it sounds great, was certainly interested on switch but put it off once i found out there was a pc port in the works. saw it on the store and came here to see if anyone had posted it's coming :p looks fantastic and much less janky than the last AC game i played. only games i've played on EGS are metro exodus and rocket league lel. finally a free title im actually keen on

it was trash when i tried it 20 years ago, it's even worse trash now.

benjipwns · « **Reply #327 on:** March 31, 2022, 01:24:12 PM »

Some previous stuff is back up and will be up next week if you missed it the first time:

Bebpo · « **Reply #328 on:** April 01, 2022, 12:49:55 AM »

I'm bummed I missed In Sound Mind. Looks kind of decent.

But will probably end up in a Humble Bundle pretty soon. That's where these free Epic/Game Pass games usually end up sooner or later.

benjipwns · « **Reply #329 on:** April 07, 2022, 05:37:46 PM »

My post above is slightly wrong, Rogue Legacy apparently is new to EGS, I thought it had been free before. I really like it despite its flaws so I recommend it!

Football Manager 2022 also has a free weekend and sale if you like that kind of thing.

GreatSageEqualOfHeaven · « **Reply #330 on:** April 08, 2022, 06:20:14 AM »

Xcom2 an upcoming EGS freebie

But its Xcom2 without any expansions or Steam Workshop

Apparently widely influenced by Sony's VR interests. That's a hefty chunk of change.

be nice if that influences the new Sony headset being good for PCVR. seems like it would be a great headset for racing sim stuff

Just Die Already is from the designers of Goat Simulator, looks like some stupid fun for a bit. The video of it reminds me a little of State of Emergency for some reason.

benjipwns · « **Reply #336 on:** May 06, 2022, 12:03:37 PM »

Prey (and Jotun) will be free next week, Prey was their Christmas Day freebie so while it's been free before it was only for one day.

Rufus · « **Reply #337 on:** May 07, 2022, 07:15:51 AM »

Prey includes the Mooncrash DLC, btw. It's a proto-Deathloop (and some say it's a better realization of the idea).

Bioshock remastered collection

Also Infinite (Complete Edition), the original collection didn't have this for a long time, just the two remasters.

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #342 on:** June 02, 2022, 03:22:22 AM »

Oh that's cool. I'll grab em, thanks for the headsup

Also goddamn the Bioshock 1 remaster looks WEIRD, idk what they were thinking, it looks worse in a lot of areas

benjipwns · « **Reply #343 on:** June 02, 2022, 03:15:30 PM »

Wolfenstein: The New Order this week.

It's Maneater this week which is mostly eh, but next week is supraland which is really good
