It’s free till December 19th once claimed you keep the game forever

Let's be serious, only until Epic eventually implodes. All things must end, even steam some day. Get your games from a place where you can download the install files.

But will say, yes, I got my free 'access' as well in the mean time :D

It has two DLC's on Epic. One is free right now and the other has a price. They are both cosmetic ones though.

I’d happily buy the game on Steam for full price, double even, than get it for free on Epic.

Is it possible to launch the game from Epic Games via Steam? I'm used to taking screenshots in games, but Epic Games doesn't have that feature.

Epic makes the Unreal engine, which is one of if not the most used graphic engine, with 16% overall coverage and majority on AAA titles - which are the ones that actually end up paying for the engine. And Fortnite. Fortnite will die, sure, which will reduce Epic's income, but as far as companies likely to die, they're pretty damn low on the list. Valve is probably on the bottom of that list though.

What I am surprised at is their lack of support for their storefront. Can't buy games as gifts, miserable support for communication with the devs (no announcements, no comments, nothing). If they didn't invest as much into game developers as they do, I'd wonder if they were money laundering or something, but no, they are investing in everything but the storefront. Weird.

Perhaps you should read a little about corporate collapse and scandals etc. Always something to learn from the past.

Also, perhaps you haven't heard the latest class-action vs. valve and its functional monopoly on game distribution? Getting serious attention from the courts when it came to light valve is price fixing in internal emails and client contracts. Best look that up as well before you post next.

Care to guess what company this is? Much, much bigger than valve\steam...

This huge publicly listed multinational company founded in XXXX fell victim of declining markets, internal corruption and excessive distribution of dividends (in excess of its profits), and finally the [fill in the blank] war. It was nationalised by [this government] in XXXX but nevertheless closed down three years later.

Just click the Add a Game button at the bottom left corner of steam and choose the game?

I dont have EGS account, never used that.
If I made a fresh account I still can get the free games or need some rights with buying like on Steam? Also is this Free to keep forever?
I tried to avoid EGS at all cost so far, but as I recently found TLOTR:RoM and Whislisted this Free offer on EGS is very tempting for sure.

First off, EGS is a store, just like Steam. I find it's useful to not keep all the eggs in one basket, so to speak, and EGS is arguably more agreeable than Ubisoft, and especially whatever EA calls their current offering. However, I favor steam quite heavily in general.

Technically EGS is just fine; they are fairly straightforward and their technical solutions are quite good.

EGS' interface is very basic in comparison with steam, for better and worse. The free games are a straightforward deal with no strings attached; you get them to keep and have no requirement other than having an account (without which you couldn't download it anyway).

Didn't really bother me that it took a year to hit Steam, I simply didn't know the game existed until then. For me, it might as well have been its first release, but with the benefit of added content and bug fixing over a year before I got it.

[Cossty]

I will rather wait a year or two and buy it here when it is 80%+ off.

[Shavanna]

Epic deals are usually not bad for the devs, i guess. So i hope they got a good number of cash for that and can support the game better now. Its also better publicy that way, so people can try it out and buy e.g. new (content) dlcs.
