Just saying and all that.

Ah, I missed that one earlier this week!

Callisto Protocol today.

I thought oh goody but apparently it's already in my library

 

[TrojanWhore]

Yeah I already had it, good freebie for those who don't though.

Wondering what tomorrow will be, might have to take my handheld to my parents' place so I can claim and not have to rush back on boxing day

The fact that the games are free does not mean they cant still be judged as terrible. Being free doesn't magically make them great games (other than hogwarts they have all been terrible)

Majority of the time they've been terrible. I've just looked and I've bagged 334 games on Epic over the last 6 years (Admittedly a small proportion were redeemed from prime gaming) but not a single purchase on Epic. I've got maybe 15-20 that I'd rate as worthwhile playing. The majority I've never played, so there may be some hidden gems in there. But with the chance to only play a couple of hours a week, I have to really pick a worthy game so I'm not wasting valuable time on rubbish.

You can claim directly on the web, don't need PC/console in order to redeem.

Yeah as @sample says, I just add to my library via my phone. Much easier.

I played this on Xbox. It's quite entertaining, a bit weird, well written, worth playing.

If you’ve not played Disco Elysium I would highly recommend, it is not like many games out there and takes a bit of getting used to but I loved it!

I've often heard good things about it but know very little about it.
That's enough reason to add it to.my.library though.

It's excellent. Enjoy!

I played it on PS4, was very intriguing. Got the free update for PS5 but save couldn't transfer. Happily give it another go on PC as mouse control would remove the main frustration I had with it.

 

[melmac]

Was thinking of getting Disco Elysium and nearly bought it on a bundle deal last week. Glad I waited now

 

[Dark Light]

Decent haul of games so far, second biggest giveaway and technically the highest rated game. Two games I would have bought at some point.

 

[Craig R]

Def worth grabbing Disco Elysium. There is a LOT of reading though.

I thought it was voice acted.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

I think at launch it didn’t have as much voice lines? I played it for the first time at the start of last year, and it’s easily one of the best games I’ve played of all time.
It’s a great giveaway for those who don’t have it!
