I got excited but unfortunately the first game is Destiny and they don’t even mention the rest of them. That’s probably the one game I wouldn’t even take free.

I have never played Destiny. Just out of curiosity, is it that bad ?

Edit : just read this comment and now I kinda get the idea.

No thanks. We don’t need a spyware on our systems.

Epic copied some Steam files to its own folder without informing the users. When people found out, Tim Sweeney ( CEO of Epic Fail) said that it was a bad implementation.

Yes I am aware of that launcher but I don’t want to support a shady company.
