Free PC game and free weekend notification thread

I subscribe to their newsletter yet was able to get the game.

It looks like I’m a moron. I went back and tried again, and had no problem doing it. Thanks, y’all!

nut over all epic’s all about the borderlands 3 it releases tomorrow this week …

erm game lol i meant to say epics all about borderlands 3 this week as it releases tomorrow …

Epic is now giving away a Batman: Arkham Collection and the Lego Batman trilogy.

I’m loving these free Epic games. More bread and circuses, please!

thanks i didnt check it today … and theres probably a fortnite update also …

In case anyone gets the error I did, “Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D”, post #2 in this thread (which took me awhile to find) had the solution.

Freespace 2 is free on GOG

i just came in to say that lol…

Epic is now giving away Everything and Metro 2033 Redux: https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/collection/free-games-collection

Make sure you also get Freespace Open. It’s the open source Freespace 2 engine, with updated graphics capabilities, such as support for modern high resolution widescreen displays. You’ll also be able to load modern mods such as new missions or even total conversions.

Is there any kind of time pressure on how quickly we must get Freespace Open? I already added Freespace 2 to my GoG library, so I’m good there.

I assume Freespace Open is free and open (ha!) but just want to verify. I’d hate to finally sit down to play FreeSpace 2 for the first time like 18 months from now only to discover I missed my chance to download the thing that lets it fill my screen.

Yeah it’s open source. Totally free. Think of it like a mod.

Surviving Mars is free to download until October 17th on Epic Games

Nice! I had been eyeballing that. Going to download it and look at the pretty icon on my desktop and not play it because I don’t play anything anymore ever :slight_smile:

That sounds so dumb but it also sounds like you’re describing me.

Sometimes I feel like Burgess Meredith in the Twilight Zone. “There’s never enough time!”

Time to create an Epic account, thanks for the tip!
Does anyone have any reverse effect from just freeloading?

oh if you scroll down a bit theres a free expansion for it too … i think its just a “stuff” pack tho
