Re: Do NOT register at Epic Game Store to get Troy for free
To be honest, I don't see how accepting the offer will encourage more exclusive deals in the future. Total War games have been platform-exclusive since 2009, which means that the current deal actually breaks the monopoly of Steam, encouraging more competition perhaps for the benefit of the consumer (in all likelihood, probably just for Creative Assembly). I understand that Epic is less user-friendly Gabe's child, but the differences are negligible in my opinion. Your privacy in Steam is also at risk, while the mere existence of an online platform forces the customers to refuse their full ownership rights, to which they are supposed to be fully entitled, having legally purchased the product, by being obliged to share it with an intermediary. So, the situation is rather dismal with or without Epic. So, given the fact that the game was free and that the monopoly of Steam was finally broken, I happily registered to epic, in order to reap the fruits! I for one cordially welcome our new Chinese overlods!
