Used to be a huge meme on here 14 years ago lol
>people who were born after that are now the majority on Ganker
>2007 was 14 years ago
Where does the time go?
Pimp My Ride aired 20 years ago.
thx for reminding homosexual
>14 years ago
>Used to be
>14 years ago
Feels like yesterday
I'm 12 years old and what's a meme?
It used to be fun to report people using this meme and get them banned. Ah, the good old days.
newbie
Based EU for making this possible
it will only work in the EU though
you need to have a europoor iphone though because apple is that fricking stingy that they'd rather make and maintain a region exclusive app store if it means they can pocket a few extra goyimcoins
Did the Epic Store ever add the ability to detect games on my drives on a new windows install or does it still basically force me to redownload them?
I still only log in to claim the free games and the occasional fortnite.
What's you most played free game?
Mine's Bloons 6
The Wolf Among Us and Alien Isolation.
Lots of diamonds if you're willing to log in to see them offering turds lots of other weeks.
I have hundreds of games on EGS and I have installed and played exactly zero of them.
Why even bother?
Why not?
Sounds like pointless busywork.
In what way?
In the way of constantly checking a store and gaining nothing.
You don't have to check, you get a notification or an email depending on your preferences whenever the free for the month stuff updates.
Regularly receiving notifications that you should go to a store and gain nothing sounds pretty annoying.
So turn em off
I don't have an epic account
ok then
I don't get any notifications I just log on to the website for 2 minutes once per week and I get free games to keep forever*.
Sounds like a waste of 2 minutes per week
Sort of like responding to someone on Ganker that doesn't care about your opinion? How many minutes do you waste on that?
If you don't care, why are you posting?
Only one of us is concerned with wasting time.
There are better ways to waste time than regularly checking the epic store for nothing, that's all.
>he doesnt have a bot that auto claim every game on epic for him
it only stopped working for a while when they implemented the captcha but now it works again
I guess that at least can fun be to code
That do nothing because you've never launched any of them
So? Maybe I will get bored someday. It's more than you've gotten from replying to me.
Nah, just having to run epic would be bad enough for it to never be worth it for me.
Just use Heroic Launcher.
I can just use rutracker.org, it works really well.
You do you, seems like a waste of time setting those up.
There's nothing to set up, you just type the name into the search and click download. And it works for any game!
You're being disingenuous now since everyone knows that isn't how it works unless you're installing crypto backdoor repacks.
No, that's literally how it works, you just might be a zoomer who's too scared to pirate.
Sorry, but you're downloading malware.
Sorry your generation has been conditioned to fear freedom, bro.
No, you see games have this thing called DRM that needs to be bypassed and if you aren't doing it yourself then someone else did it for you and that isn't all they did.
Sure thing, my young friend.
Computers may feel scary to use when there are no bright buttons to click, I'm sure you'll figure it out one day.
Sorry you had to find out this way. I remember when I fricked my system installing the Doom 3 leak. I don't make that kind of mistake anymore.
I don't get nothing, I have hundreds of free games.
Same
I have never played a single EGS game I grab them all when it's free though
Death Stranding
it's the only free one i actually played
didn't much care for it
None. Every free game I would ever want to play I already beat years ago.
Mine is GLORIOUS CHINA ZING XIAO
mines raid shadow legends
Just use the Heroic launcher.
It detects your games on other drives but it still makes you redownload them since the only thing the scan does is phone home to Timmy what you're playing and how you got it.
just a question anon, how often are you installing windows for this to be a regular problem?
I recently purchased a new laptop and moved a drive containing a bunch of epic games onto it and had no way to get the launcher to recognize them.
My steam games and games on other launchers could be detected instantly.
>Timmy breaking big tech corporate monopolies and making the industry healthier and better for everyone
>that's bad because....it just is ok?
do you really want google and apple to control entire multi-billion user platforms anon? are you that fricking moronic?
breaking big tech corporate monopolies
Because he wants to be the monopoly.
Yes, he competes and makes the world a better place.
Can you explain why Timmy actively took support away from Linux?
Because not many people use it, hope this helps
So he is enabling monopolies by removing lesser used alternatives? Odd way of being against monopolies.
Linux is not a competitor, and people who use linux don't use it for gaming mostly, there are less linux gamers than windows 7 (before 2024) gamers, Mac on the other hand is supported because it has an actual marketshare
So again he is actively supporting monopolies by removing and hindering an alternative.
>Mac on the other hand is supported because it has an actual marketshare
Not really.
hehehe
Macs are for work, not for gaming
Visiting instagram is not work
Your phone is for social media, Macs are for work
You see, a monopoly is defined as a situation in which Timmy isn't getting paid as much as he wishes, so removing support for other platforms is also fighting against a monopoly.
Epic openly stated that they want to have over 50% of ALL PC gaming revenue.
>why did Chinaman take away freedom
It is a mystery.
He didn't.
Apple payment API is hardcoded to use appstore. Granted they could bypass it by simply using the browser but Apple ain't going to let it be.
I like Google and Apple. They make good products. It's Microshit and the chinks that should be kept on a leash.
based. can't wait for the daily steamdrone malding threads
Unironically based, but I still won't ever install their chink maleware.

>trusting this man with your game library

Sounds pretty good to me.
>no skeletons, time travel and any other thing that man does not like
Time travel is bad? I've read so many fricking chink time travel webnovels though.
RIP Reverend Insanity
>webnovels
Self-published abroad.
They have plenty of manhua adaptations and I doubt those are self-published, though I could be wrong.
https://www.theguardian.com/news/2021/jul/15/china-video-game-censorship-tencent-netease-blizzard
>In the video game industry, as in many sectors, most censorship is not about top-down directives. Because the official guidelines are so vague, foreign developers tend to abide by a fuzzy, speculative and ever-changing set of unwritten “rules”, many of which are gleaned from trial and error. Time travel, for example, is considered best avoided. “I’m not 100% sure why,” said the industry insider I spoke to. “But from what I heard it’s because the government doesn’t want the people to think there is a possibility of going back in time and changing the party regime.”
Why are the CCP such thin skinned pussies?
that's commies for you. they're narcssistic control freaks and feel the need to have power over everyone around them because of how repulsive and ugly they are as people, force is the only way they can interact with others. just look at how leftists who frick up video games act on their social media.
They aren't. It's the gays who self-censor because they believe literal internet jokes. You know that infamous censorship about skeletons in Chinese games? The government has never acted against such a thing in any media. Every single case has been purely pointless self-censorship, and they blame loose guidelines to disguise their own idiocy.
>Time travel, for example, is considered best avoided. “I’m not 100% sure why,” said the industry insider I spoke to. “But from what I heard it’s because the government doesn’t want the people to think there is a possibility of going back in time and changing the party regime.
lmao, that's so fricking ridiculous
>the Chinese found a way to time travel and keep it secret
I fricking knew it
>Xi lays awake each night in abject terror that some moron scientist might accidentally discover time travel while smashing atoms together and they'll use it to go back in time and depose him
lmao
this is all Red Alert's fault, the chinks played it and loved it but the idea of somebody going back in time to kill their leader was ingrained after looking back on it
>citation
>none needed in Burgerstan
>no blacks
True
>homos or trannies
chinks are the biggest lgtb apologists
That's a standard he holds for his country, not for yours.
china funds troony organizations in the west
>no homos
>post the crustiest picture in existence and sideways
>still think he has any valid argument

Xi isn't BlackRock, moronic snowmonkey
good morning sir
>Epic Games Store beat Steam on PC
lol sure buddy
they should make a console, I would buy it
>Epic Games Store beat Steam on PC
???
EGS has 270 million users
Steam only has 100 million
>270 million fortnite players
you mad bro?
>b-but they don't count!
EGS is literally more popular than Steam. You mad bro?
Revenue is up 16%. You mad bro?
LMAOOOOOOOOO
Thanks for showing EGS has had massive growth every year and Steam is dying. 🙂
Third party revenue went down kek and the only reason those numbers don't look as dire is because they got inflated by the Fortnite push in Nov/Dec. No one is buying in the store.
>users increasing
>spending decreasing
this is what happens when your master plan revolves around getting a ton of third worlders to use your store
That and people tend to forget the store exists unless the want to play Fortnite or Rocket League on PC
Only 950 million? Valve made more than 3x that just from Linux users.
Valve has 4x the number of paying customers running Linux.
Steam only made $2 billion last year. EGS is going to pass it in a year or two lol.
>Steam only made $2 billion last year.
source
I think you might be using money spent for EGS, but revenue after expenses for Valve.
>EGS is literally more popular than Steam.
So is ESG a monopoly?
Now post the finance report of 2023.
>95% of 'users' are just addicted zoomers who only play fortnite and the only reason they 'use' ESG is because fortnite is exclusive to ESG
they dont count bro
Hey, where did you get the number for steam users?
Thanks for the free games.
Now subtract Fortnite players from that number.
They never address this... so weird.
You're hurting the feelings of the Chinese people.
You should stop.
>"users" instead of "players"
Oh ok, so they're inflating the number with all the non-game Unreal VisDev & Twinmotion accounts most of which are basically bots.
I just gonna say I alone have 150 epic accounts for various purposes
As already posted in this thread, those are total account numbers.
Their MAU(monthly active users) is at 75 million.
Steam's latest MAU numbers were 120 million
steamies abobawdely BTFO
>-13% revenue from 3rd party games
and more users/players than steam will ever have
It has less monthly active users then Steam does
Plus Steam users actually buy games on store
what's the point of this exactly?
now you can browse and buy games on a dedicated app instead of just going to the webpage? who the frick buys games on their phone instead of the PC where they're actually gonna play them?
It's cross platform so it's actually the only way to buy something on iOS/Android then still have it on the opposite platform if you switch phones
>only in the EU
Steamies seethin'
EGS is killing valve right before their eyes, kek
I was being sincere and wanna know where you got the stat from.
Will they put the Infinity Blade games there? If not this shitty store doesn't matter.
>0.50 euros per user install
How the frick does this even sound fair to any developer that isn’t epic?
Seems odd to not provide where you get the numbers from.
when was the last time epig got a big exclusive?
The PC versions of FF16 and FF7 Rebirth.
there are zoomers browsing this board that were born after advice animals faded away
>Fortnite Store shilling again
Go to bed, Timmy. Chew on a remote or something.
>Epic Games Store beat Steam on PC
at what?
Have you been living under a rock?
Clearly you have been living in another reality.
Will it have actual games or will they allow the same Play Store shit? Because it'll be equally shit if they don't.
>Epic Games Store beat Steam on PC
Oh wow. There needs to be a massive lawsuit addressing the Epic monopoly problem. :^)
No anon you don't get it, if it's a monopoly he approves of is ok
>Copying the Activision Amiico's business model
Oh no no no no
based
I'm not a mobile moron but I'd rather a game company get the money than google / apple
also tim is based for pushing crossplay
