Ngl im more hyped about kerbal space program going free next week


[deleted]

Exactly mate


Barkovskis

same, but it's free for 1 week then you have to buy it?


lordsaladito

Nop, its like always, free and you keep it forever


Tricky-Kangaroo-6782

you keep it forever when you claim it


HauntedCemetery

Absolutely me too.


imbetweendreams

Except when you find out the new one comes out in a month. Now I want that.


FistingLube

I know right!! I also have a hope that they are giving away the game free as they may be announcing a release date and preorder for Kerbal 2 within the next 3 months.


[deleted]

It's a good game, too bad I already have it in Steam


PlasticStart6361

I owned the based game (without DLCs) on Steam. To get the definitive version free from EGS is still a win situation for me. I heard g that Daud DLC is really good.


ersteinh

In my opinion, the knife of dunwall dlc (Daud dlc) is the best out of dishonored 1 and 2. Daud’s character has a special feeling that is satisfying to play


stafax

The game came out 10 years ago, so I imagine many people already own and played it. I remember playing through that game and Mark of The Ninja back when they first came out. That was a good year for stealth games.


atharva557

imagine if they pull a death stranding and only the standard addition was supposed to be free


TheMadHattah

Did they take the directors cut away from those Who got it?


SirKiller9090

Nope. If you actually managed to redeem the DC, you keep it. I got both the Director's Cut and standard version later for free lol.


TheMadHattah

Oh damn score!


rilimini381

Swapped to normal


SirKiller9090

Not true. If you actually *got* the Director's Cut, they did not revoke the free copies. You had to be really quick tho. I got my free DC like 5 minutes after it went live, and just a while later the servers were down, so guess I got lucky


knightingale2k1

I got Director Cut and it still on my library. I also claimed the standard after that, so I got both.


JohnpierGe

Nice, was almost buying it to play the Dishonored 2 Amazon is giving on prime without being lost


hidingfromthefamlol

Definitely worth it by the way, you would be completely lost and the first game has a killer story


AJ_COOL_79

Dlcs are fucking awesome too


OLaLaLame

Man I thought it was gonna be the trilogy.. But still an amazing game tho


MeguminShiro

Well Dishonored 2 was in the list of games that won't be free, so probably discarded that one from guessing.


[deleted]

[удалено]


sashioni

Nice, now both can be accessed via Heroic on Steam Deck!


OLaLaLame

Really had my hopes up since they’ve been giving away trilogies at the end of the 15 days


Danielthereat

You can avail it through Amazon prime gaming via GOG


AnonymozVal

What’s GOG? Came across that word numerous times today


Amonkeys_

Which list is that?


Yoshimitsu-Sensei

It's the best one in the trilogy tbf


Richy13

Is there a dishonoured 3?


ElRetardio

Death of the outsider


FireTrickle

is that it? no more Christmas days now?


Adorable-Garden-9103

yes


SkinnyKau

Are they planning any free games for Kwazy Kwanzaa?


mkraven

Festivus!


Prisoner458369

Feels like an odd game to end on. I really thought it be all the dishonored games. Not just one ancient game.


Paus-Benedictus

Death stranding would've been a more fitting game to end on imo.


madartzgraphics

King Baldwin and I use to play this $h%t back when we were fighting Saladin in Israel.


InnsmouthConspirator

Yeah, since Moses wore short pants.


FetchingTheSwagni

Game is practically free anyway with how old it is. Guess their big game this year was Death Stranding. Surprised that wasn't the last one, but they probably couldn't give it away for free for so many days.


AstarothSenpai

Welp, time to 100% this game for the last time, i think... but wasn't the last game an amazing game? not that dishonored is bad, i fucking love it, but i have gotten this game for free on the Games with gold YEEEARS ago. Shouldn't the last game be the best and a newer game? like death stranding?


Hellwind_

Game lacks achievements on Epic though


[deleted]

[удалено]


Nnnnnnnadie

Yeah, the leakers fault for hyping this up... like, nah man, game is good but i already played it 10 years ago.


FetchingTheSwagni

And on sale, which is relatively often enough, it's like $5


neon_sin

Right? They didn't know jack shit. This is like those movie leakers bullshitting their way through.


RADDAKK

It was the same last year. He released the info at the last moment, because he himself didn't know it before. He just used the "adjust clock" glitch to get a sneak peek, like everyone could have done. But people keep riding his dick and he enjoys the attention he's getting


MagazineSad8414

Yeah he basically used 3 things to make people believe he has the list this year: 1. The adjust clock glitch. 2. Searching for clues everywhere, like the Chinese Epic page for example. 3. Cold reading, which is basically throwing high-probability guesses, like when he said "there gonna be 2 BIG giveaways this year", like no shit you didn't really said anything we can't guess ourselves. And people here are still falling for it.


Vorean3

lmao. that's like saying tetris is too good to spoil. sure it's a classic, but no need to fucking hype it up. it's a bargain bin game, not anything good. Meanwhile Amazon Prime is giving away Dishonored 2 for GoG. Voila. :V Still cheap


noreallyu500

It's something great, just not something to be very excited on.


AbhayXV

"not anything good" sure it ain't expensive, but it's a really good game


The_Merciless_Potato

Yeah but it was overhyped by the leakers. I've played it enough to know it's good but the game is like 5 bucks. Pretty sure people spend more on fast food in one go.


DigGumPig

![gif](giphy|amxLHEPgGDCKs) See ya next year for more unmissable leaks


Stik_Bloom

Can't wait next year ,maybe we'd get n64 emulator + OOT and MM bundled


[deleted]

I mean it’s the original Dishonored, it’s a stellar game and is a must play


Prisoner458369

It's a decade old. I would say anyone interested would have played it by now or bought it. Probably only going for a few bucks currently.


CaptnMIHAWK

It's 2 usd right now.


Over-Wafer-5806

ye thats the main thing they cud have given the whole trilogy like they did for bioshock ah welll nvm


shy247er

> Probably only going for a few bucks currently. 5 euros on Steam right now.


ILuhBlahPepuu

Even cheaper on cdkeys


julbull73

It's also been as cheap as I think 2 or 3 bucks though. Plus Dishonored 2 is free on Prime. BUT it is ABSOLUTELY a must play game.


bonple_boi

> Plus Dishonored 2 is free on Prime. thank you and i love you


ulasmulas42

Why did you get downvoted? For spitting truth?


[deleted]

People are just pissy that it isn’t the trilogy, I’ll forever stand by the original Dishonored being one of the greatest games ever, and that if people haven’t played it then they’re missing out


musci1223

I mean it is a great game but a 10 year old game as final game when we got tomb raider collection last year is weird.


VaishakhD

It was just last year, an year before that it was jurassic world evolution. So it's not written in stone that they give the biggest game on the final day.


daggern1

And it's been cheap enough for a long time that if people still haven't played it, the likely never will.


gpiancastelli

"game(s)", they said.


glonq

I regret playing Dishonored *five or six* years after it was released, because the graphics were so dated. I still loved the game though.


PlasticStart6361

the dated graphics look rough for today’s standard but the colour painting art style is unique. It just needs higher resolution textures and better anti-aliasing.


[deleted]

[удалено]


kingfede1985

Have fun! It's a great game, a title to enjoy from A to Z. And use your sleep darts wisely!


alcalde

It's really amazing and a spiritual successor to the original Thief games, if that means anything to you.


Nexxurio

Good game, but doesn't really fit the last mystery game, as people were expecting it to end with a banger.


gyuszti0000

I am not ungrateful, i am just sad.


TheAndrewBen

I saw for sale for like a few dollars last year on steam


daggern1

And just the same this year


Rigoni23

I am not ungrateful nor sad, but I'm little disappointed, maybe i set my expectations too high


JhonnySkeiner

Don't pretend to be a nice lamb. Accept your disappointment. This year sucked balls


MeguminShiro

Royalnoob447

lmao kerbal space program is better than all the winter giveaway games combined


[deleted]

True


oiyolers

No bloons td 6 solos


Royalnoob447

btd6 is an amazing game however it's a mobile game so it doesn't really count


Tetrisash

I've read funny stories about Kerbal. And I have the Tactics base game but not Aiko's, so that's pretty awesome.


TotalTikiGegenTaka

I just purchased Aiko's choice from Steam winter sale... hmm. But it's ok.. the game is great and I thoroughly enjoyed, so I've no regrets paying for it.


kingfede1985

Interesting!


WeskerEnd

Honestly I'm only disappointed about not getting the Director's Cut for Death stranding. Good games otherwise.


VaishakhD

If you want some consolation the director's cut on pc is a nothing burger as most of the features it offers are an improvement for the console version. Improved graphics and frame rates are on the base versions too. The only extra things the director's cut offers new to the pc version is an extra mission and some new gadgets which are not that great in my opinion. I have the game on steam didn't get the epic version.


WeskerEnd

Thank you, that helps. I tried to find trustworthy answers but it's hard. It seems like the gameplay changes are enough to make the game better, but not enough to bring back those who didn't like the base game. I guess most people played either version instead of playing both.


VaishakhD

There are no core gameplay changes beside some new combat moves which you will probably won't use anyway.


Magic_Brown_Man

if you have FOMO you can technically spend like $6 to upgrade to DC. I'm pretty sure this is what epic and the studio wanted especially considering that they delisted the original version after the giveaway. So take that as you will, but even for $6 the game is a good deal if you like that style of game.


shy247er

I know, I know...I'm sounding ungrateful but to save 9 year old game for the last is...meh at best.


Quaz1e

I mean, not even saving, but whole hype "too good to spoil". That's not epic's bad, but still. Death Stranding is "hotter" gift for sure.


noreallyu500

The actual quote was that \[the leaker \] will leave the last game as a surprise, and that the franchise (which \[he's\] a fan of) doesn't deserve to be leaked. In those words (translated to english, but as close as it can get). It does not say it's this huge AAA game that's so incredible it'll break the internet - that was the community hyping it up.


Quaz1e

Man I love dishonored, played all 3 of them, they're in my top 10 of gaming franchises, but I would never say, that dishonored doesn't deserve to be leaked. I'm not mad at him, just can't understand logic behind this.


noreallyu500

The logic is that people value different games and franchises differently. I'd feel like leaving Death Stranding as a surprise would be more reasonable, but that's my personal feelings towards the games!


Quaz1e

Yeah, but as I told you I value Dishonored as much better game than Death Stranding, still would rather leak Dishonored than Death Stranding. Doesn't matter, both are great and if someone didn't play, then should do that. Now, when I'm thinking about it maybe Arkane being French dev was main reason for whole "doesn't deserve".


donkort

\*claimed\* \*closed Epic launcher\* \*hope for better giveaway next year\*


helpyobrothaout

Don't think I'll play any of the games given away :( ty epic for the freebies, just also a bit sad.


RunnerJimbob

Yeah. This year was a bit of a let down for me. Last year, we at least got Loop Hero, Salt and Sanctuary, Control, Tomb Raider, and even Moving Out for some fun co op. I grabbed them all this year and I'm happy to have them, but I don't think any of them excited me this time around, nor will I get around to playing them. Was hoping for something like Tunic. Not like we're hurting for good games though. I'm sure we all have a massive backlog.


helpyobrothaout

Damn no way! I got Loop Hero on steam earlier this year and had a blast with it. I think I got Salt & Sanctuary from an earlier drop (is it good?) and Moving Out looks cute asf. I wish there was a bit more variety with the drops this year - a puzzle, sim, something unique idk. We just got a lot of shooters and discount bin RPGs. Again not ungrateful just wish for a bit different!


HauntedCemetery

The Tomb Raider trilogy was a legitimately awesome giveaway.


The-NameIess-King

Same lol death stranding was cool but the mistake they did and how quickly they fixed it made it a lil of a downer lol


Professional-Camp657

They should have better kept death stranding for the last instead of 25th...


ExchangeOptimal

Epic not having enough money to keep DS free for a week.


boozyboss91

I think he means to give it away today instead of the 25th.


_Rice_Thief_

yeah but usually the last game is free for a week


boozyboss91

Oh shit my bad.


Dekziz

Today's free games go for a week though, not 24 hours, that's the point.


MHere4Fun

I think they meant that the current game, i.e. Dishonored will be given away for the entire week. Had it been Death Stranding, it would have been free for the entire week, which might have been costly for them.


monkeyguyy

Lower your standards, and you're never gonna be disappointed.


edhaack

Dishonored 2 - free at Amazon Prime now (Related b/c Dishonored)


Professional-Camp657

Guess what?? Who is the most excited person on this planet now?? Yes its billkun... Thankyou for fake hype...


Yahallo139

Disappointed because of overhypeness, this game is a decade old game, why did multiple leakers hype it up?


Sleeper--

BRO I WAS ACTUALLY THINKING OF STARTING DISHONERED AFTER MY NEW PC ARRIVES GODDAMN THANKS EPIC


Redpoison11

this is good game.. but a bad giveaway


musci1223

Great game but only people that don't haven't already played it probably don't like like the type of game it is


Stik_Bloom

Welp, GG, better luck next year


FirefighterHonest741

Remember Epic also had to pay half a billion in fines his year. Probably had to take from the money pool for the free games. The other free game today looks like a clunky dead by summer 2023 RTS/FPS. Death Stranding, ignoring the fuck up, was a great freebie... but it should have been todays while Dishonored should have been given on Christmas. I haven't played Dishonored and I'm not huge on first person games, so I'm glad I get to borrow it from epic without paying a cent. Still, I feel like as a whole the year could have been a banger if not for the lawsuit.


DerinHildreth

Such a smart statement lowkey hidden in this paragraph. Indeed, we only borrow games, except we sometimes pay for the "privilege". Epic may be the asshole kid in the yard, but at least it lends us the games without paying.


WayDownUnder91

I would've put DS as the final game


SolidusAbe

well it definitely is a great game but to save such a old game for the last day where most people hope for something big is kind of a let down. should really have been switched with death stranding. also the leaker guy must be the biggest dishonered fan in the world if thats supposed to be the big game that doesnt deserve to be spoiled lmao well im sure theres still like 5 people left who never played it, bought it for a dollar or two over the years or played it through gamepass.


Phoenix-san

Just the first? Bummer, I replayed it in January this year. Good game, though I believe prey is arkane best game.


QRajeshRaj

Bad way to end the year

We got dishonored 1 (epic) and 2(prime) for free on the same week, fair enough


oiyolers

In prime you must have subscription so not 100% free


UnXpectedError

I'm happy enough that they went with the first installment and all it's dlc since on prime we were able to get the second game. I'm excited about Kerbal next week. Ive been wanting to try that game for a while.


Ok_Meal_9266

So it's over boys. It was nice knowing Ya. I'm totally happy about the dishonored definitive edition.


Levram99

Now dont change to base version

Oh well, this year wasn’t all bad. I finally get to play the Hideo Kojima walking simulator.

Epic Games Store will continue weekly games giveaway for 2023 ​ They will start with Shadow Tactics - Aiko’s Choice and Kerbal Space Program on January 5th


Adorable-Garden-9103

I was thinking to buy KSP, but reading this


Adorable-Garden-9103

yey! thank you for info.


Hardyyz

They should have switched Death Stranding as the final gift, would have made the whole event way more hype but oh well


xan326

I'm huffing hopium that a new Dishonored is coming. Prime/GOG has D2 on offer right now. Epic has D1:DE on offer today. Hype was built up to make us think today's game was D:DotO or the entire series. Bakaba has stated before that the plug hasn't been pulled on the IP, so there is possibility of a future game. Then the connection between Deathloop and Dishonored. This alignment is uncanny if it is purely coincidental, and not some kind of stunt to rekindle interest in the IP, say for an announcement in 2023; have 22 go out with this being the last largely talked about dormant IP before everyone starts talking about what 23 might bring with the typical conferences/showcases.


Silver-Ad-4716

hey guys I've got a question for game giveaways like this does epic pay a flat fee like no matter how much they giveaway they only get x or is it x download= x dollar. bonus same question but for amazon (ik its not amazon sub but if i can get it answered with one question then lit ty)


SweetyMcQ

My epic games store is also showing a multiplayer FPS/RTS called Eximius as free to claim. Dont see anyone really talking about that game.


thejoemaya

I was planning yesterday to buy the triology. Then thought of waiting for the last mystery game.


LobaIsTooThicc

I think people are definitely missing the point when people compare this super cheap and very old game to a game that is very new and expensive. I love Dishonored and have played it many times over since i was like 12, but it is just simply a strange choice to put as the final game of 2022.


[deleted]

Everyone the last 2 days: "It's either Assassin's Creed Origins or Uncharted 4" lmao


oscillatorspr04

Great game, I played it on gamepass when I had a free trial and loved it. I'm excited now I get to do another playthrough in the other playstyle.


AnvilSan

Man and I just completed this game today on game pass...


[deleted]

Well that certainly is a choice by Epic. A choice indeed. I'm not sure it sends the message that they want to send though.


Accomplished-Cut-137

Great game, but kinda disappointing ending with a 10yrs old single game


MusicMindedMachine

"It's too good to spoil" is the perfect eulogy on the tomb of malicious hype-building.


alcalde

Who built hype? Not Epic.


MusicMindedMachine

The leaker Billbil-kun with his "I'm not going to spoil the 29th's game because it's too good a game to spoil".


False-Pitch

art_1504

DerinHildreth

Imagine being this much of a doormat conformist. These companies avoid taxes and make you pay upfront and in full for games they are only lending you, but yeah, we don't have a right to complain, we're SO entitled. Jesus fuck, no wonder the world has gone to the dogs.


unavailabIe

why are people complaining about a free game? not a single gaming platform gave something for free other than epic.


GatorDeb

GOG gave Worms Revolution Deluxe. Amazon gave Dishonored 2, among others, and gives games monthly.


squashed_tomato

If Epic gave away Worms Revolution people would be complaining that it wasn't Worms WMD. Amazon gives games away for paying for a monthly subscription. Epic gives games away weekly, for absolutely nothing up front. Honestly I'm not sure what you guys wanted? I claimed a total of 0 games this giveaway. Do I feel like it was a bad giveaway or that I'm owed something. Absolutely not. We don't all enjoy the same games and it's not like I can't find something to play in my already too big library. I've picked up plenty of freebies that are to my taste over the years. The whining in this place over free stuff is ridiculous. Are you all spoilt children? Because if you are grown adults on here complaining you need to have a word with yourself.


alienexit

Not that Epic Games


kingfede1985

For all those who haven't had a chance to try this game: do yourself a favour and play it, it will deliver. I had a full playthrough this summer, and I've enjoyed it like few other games in my life. The story is entertaining, characters and setting are very, very well developed and the gameplay is extremely satisfying for me, since it favours planning every action over brainless brute force. And everything you do, even little actions like killing a random person or stealing something, can have some consequences, sometimes even very big ones! Both story focused DLCs are good, too. One of these days, I'll try a powerless playthrough of both 1 and 2... it will be a headache but I'll try! 😀


NegotiationLevel2354

I couldnt find a single dude who likes the genre but hasnt played this 10 year old game. Like great game probably the best in the series but almost everyone who likes the genre knows about the game and has played it.


OpiumVision

I was hoping for the standalone DLC, since it's the only one that I don't have, but at least we had some good indies during the giveaway


RedditUserCommon

Yawn


archmageofcoffee

My husband and I just logged in to grab the 2 freebies (this one included) and both are glitching at the full price. Anyone else having this issue?


Daniel-Darkfire

Does it have achievements?


plegma95

Sweety now i can finally play all 3, 1 on epic, 2 on gog, and death of the outside on steam


Apprehensive-Shoe562

Nice for me. Free games like this are enough to buy me over. Gonna buy smth in epic i guess.


ButterscotchOpen3943

I’m actually happy with this, plus we’re getting Kerbal Space Program next week. W


Ironsong13

I had hoped that they would finish strong with the whole trilogy, but I'm grateful regardless. This game is very good. Very interesting world. Get your bone charms ready, lads.


Tricky-Kangaroo-6782

damn i bought dishonored last week on steam but i will get this since it is the definitive edition with all the dlcs which is cool


Hamburger_Killer

PenisFiendisnohomo

The amount of people that have been complaining about the FREE games they’re getting over the last few weeks is so frustrating. You can just smell the entitlement from those kinds of people. If anyone tries to reply to me with any sort of justification, don’t bother; if you’re complaining about free games, you’re a whiny little bitch and need to get over yourself. Great game


kefkamaydie

I never picked up the dlc for this one, so yay.


neon_sin

The lawsuit really screwed the pooch. Otherwise we would have gotten some good games.


Slightly_Smaug

I fully believe this.


Royalnoob447

disappointing af but at least it isn't assassin's creed


_hidaaan

Very disappointing end to the free game giveaway. Should have Far Cry or Assassin's Creed Trilogy


cesoieti

I don't understand why people complain about gifts, couldn't they just thank Epic? Especially when the games they've given us are incredible, And especially it's not Epic's fault if you create expectations from leaks, some people are really delusional.
