Epic Store or Steam, they're giving it for free which is priceless for a lot of people that can hardly afford to buy such a game. That alone eliminates the impact of hurting the feelings of people who hate Epic Store or those that love Steam. Most of the people that whine about it will likely get that free copy anyways. It will be like one of those cases where someone calls the game crap and unplayable after accumulating 1000 hours on it...
