News Epic Games Store

I tried to check out on Untitled Goose Game for fun, nothing happens when I hit buy. I'd consider it for $10 as the first EGS purchase but not $20 when it could be discounted on PSN.Coupons work on games which are not part of the sale.
EGS failed first today!
Steam's chance coming up soon!

who knows what will even happen 12 months after egsclusivity ... and the game isn't even out yet
Thanks to Epic's dumb $14,99 / € 14,99 barrier i will buy nothing in this sale. Many of the games i wanted are conviently priced under € 14,99. The coupons are useless for me.
This saved me some money for the Steam sale. Thanks, Timmy.

I think this is what is going to happen. 505 will release it on Steam after the exclusivity deal is over.
I mean given what happened with the last sale, Fool them once, shame on Epic....
I feel like Epic just doesn't know how sales are meant to work, or at least how to entice people into the store. Tim probably just wanted to get their sale banner up (or whatever they have, I'm not going to their website to look or opening the client) before Steam inevitably buries them with the Winter Sale
Yeah, $ not €. It's is € 13,48 for me. So it is not eligible like many others of the games. They are eligible when you are living in the USA.
Afterparty is € 12,79 and not eligible. The $ price is 15.99.
This coupon shit is a dumb way to do sales if you do not adjust the barrier regionally.

You can get The Division 2 for $5 on EGS with the coupon. Holy fuck it must have bombed hard on PC lol
PC is the best selling platform for Division 2 actually.
Lol @Epic doing another fire sale. Seems they are doing anything to avoid money hatted games selling below expectations 
Do you have a source for this?
Ubisoft itself said so, that PC was the only place where they actually met expectations (mainly helped with moving the entire userbase to uPlay). Problem is not that, but rather if it continue selling (not really as we see it has been at lmao prices all year long).Lol @Epic doing another fire sale.

People from other forums and game sites are already flocking to EGS to enjoy Epic's "generosity". Just like last time, it's remarkable how many people give up their principles when they are being given €10. Meanwhile, thanks to these people, the chance that store exclusivity deals are becoming the norm on pc rises once again. Well done guys, enjoy your cheap games!
Meeting expectations doesn't mean it's the best selling platform.
The two games I'm even remotely interested in (Satisfactory, Tetris) aren't even that cheap.
I'd rather keep waiting to be honest.

Bought Division 2 but it won't show up in uPlay. I'm pretty sure FC Primal and Watch Dogs 2 were automatically added to uPlay when I bought them from EGS previously.
Also considering Outer Wilds, Journey, Outward and Gorogoa.
Also considering Outer Wilds, Journey, Outward and Gorogoa.
Well Satisfactory's exclusivity deal ends in like 3 months anyway.
Based on reviews, if you buy one game, pick Outer Wilds.
Gorogoa is nice, but it has been 5€ on iOS since day one.
The other two do not look enticing to me.
Its part of the trashiest games released this year so yeahYou can get The Division 2 for $5 on EGS with the coupon. Holy fuck it must have bombed hard on PC lol
Yup, fuck Epic. Timmy could personally come to my house and dance a jig for me for every purchase I make and I still wouldn't spend a dime.
Wouldn't refuse a dance with Tim but I'm with you guys.
The only current EGS exclusive I want is Afterparty... But EGS has taught me patience.
Griftlands for $5 is extremely tempting, esp. if Klei follows through with the Steam Key.
I'll hold strong for now.

Sale is a good thing and i hope they do more of this and none of the exclusivity crap,
Still not buying from them because aside from them being assholes their store is a mess. It almost breaks when i try to claim the free ones, some games are not updated but redownloaded and there are many features missing.
A problematic store is always a very good reason to avoid it. Maybe they need to focus on that.

People are abusing VPN to get regional price
I'll turn a blind eye to anything which can cheat EGS out of their income.People are abusing VPN to get regional price
Wasn't epic supposed to be vpn proof unlike steam?
But apparently you can just change country + use vpn and any credit card, while Steam requires local credit card.
And this is why people here celebrate egs now, maybe it's intentional. Because it definitely didn't work when they launched.

Didn't they boast about the 5x times increase of uPlay sales earlier this year?You can get The Division 2 for $5 on EGS with the coupon. Holy fuck it must have bombed hard on PC lol
Yeah, that will end well for us.People are abusing VPN to get regional price
It'll show up in a humble bundle down the line anyways. You'll have dozens of games to play during 2020 and even 2021. Alas this can be said of A LOT of games.
I don't care about Timmy's wallet, I care about people who regional pricing is for.
Nope, my friend is currently abroad and he can VPN to my country just fine.
It was never VPN proof, in the beginning the only thing was that once you made your first purchase, it locked you to a region... which was stupid and backwards (as people GASP move). Now is the worst of all sides, as it allows you to move but not require you to use a local credit card.
Today's freebie is Towerfall Ascension.
Tomorrow should be Superhot.

Not gonna lie, the only reason I haven't pulled the trigger on Fallen Order for $15 (regional pricing) is Timmy, even though I never have to use his launcher. I just don't want to give him anything.
Saw a tweet on Era saying RDR2 sold 400k ish units on eggs in that first month. Is that good? Doesn't sound particularity amazing but is still a pretty big number.
Seems like a decently high number considering many sales probably went to RGL because of those promotions they ran,
The number is from Superdata, so who knows if if true or not.
EDIT: Wrong thread
RDR 2 400k on EGS is a possibility, but I wouldn't count on it, Tim didn't scream through the roof about its performance.
