Epic Store is in a similar place as Steam was eight or ten years ago. The Steam sales that people like to reminisce about (getting whole franchises for 90% off and stuff like that) happened when Steam was trying to build up their storefront. Now, Steam has no reason to do things like that.

Epic is obviously never going to get to where Steam is since Steam was first in, but they seem to be willing to spend a ton of money trying.

Because they haven't had to. There have been multiple instances where Epic has bought 1 year exclusivity to a game and once the exclusivity period is over the game sells more in the preorder period on Steam then it did in a year on Epic. EGS is just a fortnite launcher.

Steam doesn't set the prices during sales, each developer/publisher sets their own. The reason you'd see 90% off sales in the early days was because digital sales were an afterthought. Once they became a huge part of a games sales publishers started pricing them accordingly.

Steam sale started today.

I mentioned this one already, but Inscryption is 20% off and it is a must play.

If you don't care which storefront you use, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online can be had for $9.79 total on Epic. Buy Red Dead Online for $4.99 using the $10 coupon. When you install it and run it, there is a Story Mode option at the top. Clicking that gives you the offer to buy story mode for $4.80.

Fantastic!

Also Epic now carries Rimworld ($35). It rarely goes on sale and only 10% off when it does. You can currently get it for ~$21 with the discount and $10 coupon.

Looks like tomorrow's free game on Epic Store is Moving Out. I've already got it on Steam, but I'll still click the buttons to support it again.

El Kabong, any insider info about the deal that you are allowed to share with us?

I grabbed Planet Coaster. Thanks!

I'll play it, but I have to wait until our data cap rolls over at the end of the month. Thanks Comcast.

I could give Graveyard Keeper a shot but got too many games at the moment, so passed, thanks for the games though!

grabbed the battle chasers, thanks!

as for Graveyard Keeper, I got it a while ago and for someone who really doesn't like lifesim games (Stardew Valley almost bored me to death), I had a decent amount of fun - it's much more streamlined than SD, at least at the beginning, always giving you some goals achievable in a reasonable amount of time. Writing is also pretty good.

btw really curious as to what the last 2 epic freebies will be, I'm hoping for a decent indie metroidvania, though at this point I feel like I might have played them all

Graveyard Keeper was great, it's Stardew Valley with a dark sense of humor.

Salt and Sanctuary today. More Souls-like than Metroidvania, but it might scratch your itch. I liked it a lot.

Tomorrow is supposed to be a trilogy of Tomb Raider (2016), Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
