      the asset store is where you want to get every freebie.

      There’s a reason you can still only checkout with a single game at a time despite the asset store having a fully functional shopping cart from day 1.

      Yeah, any game I deem worthy to play, is worthy of my money anyway, so I would rather buy them on Steam/GOG.

      I have some free games on Epic, but havent even had the launcher installed for like 7 years.

      Gotta think the vast majority go unplayed. Early on I was claiming them now and again, and the Subnautica giveaway was an absolute steal. Definitely something I had on my mental patient gamer list anyway.

      Yeah, I’ve basically stopped caring about the free games at this point. I mean I have a very full library of games there but most I already own on steam of gog and I haven’t played any of them, even the ones during the recent holidays.

        Right. At this point it feels a little like time wasted on collecting free games that never get played.

          Steam is for paying for games that never get played. Most of us have hefty libraries.
