did a blog post of my Thoughts on the Actual State of Unreal in 2026, how it has come to this, etc etc. i've been an unreal user since 2008, and this is the worst the vibes have ever been. is there hope? perhaps www.joewintergreen.com/absolute-sta...

I've collected a bunch of free games on EGS; I've functionally used it as a demo system, and if I like the game, have bought it elsewhere (Steam / Playstation).

i've seen a few games that i wanted when they were excluisive on egs, and the occasional free game i'd like, but the idea of installing it on my PC feels like deliberately stepping in a cow turd

heads up, you can buy and play games on the egs without using their terrible app. Heroic Game Launcher will handle it. Also does gog and amazon if you have games from them. Lacking for gog compared to galaxy though
