It's worth playing, I've been playing the hell out of this game for the last month.
If you want it in a more convenient way, it's probably $3 on steam now (at least it was during the autumn sale).
Edit: at time of writing it's $4.79 on steam, still a steal.
Free on Epic, not anywhere that matters.
I don't understand this way of thinking tbh. Its free. Who cares. I never buy anything on epic. I just claim and play free games they give away. I don't fanboy any corporation.
Yeah I mean, it's silly as shit.
Both Epic and Valve are like multi-billionaires in the gaming industry. So it's silly to me that people are rah-rah'ing for one billionaire over another billionaire. And please spare me the launcher comparisons, I know Steam is like feature rich, though it is because of it's stupid social features and built-in Chromium browser that it had to cut off old OS support.
I don't care for any of that shit, game is a game.
Because that way you give relevancy to that platform, and let it take your data.
Fuck Epic, they should make better products, not give away free shit.
If they ever get any relevant amount of users, they will enshittify so hard you won't believe it.
If you have to install Epic launcher to play it, you might as well pirate. Your odds of installing spyware on your system are much lower on the high seas.
Or just use something like Heroic Games Launcher instead:

Free is free
While it would have been nice for OP to mention this, honestly dude, fuck off. People can decide for themselves if they want to install Epic for a free title without this kind of toxic, elitist discourse.
Let us know when Steam offers free games that isn't freemium garbage that wants to mooch off of you for money, honey.
Ah yes, an excellent rebuttal, more elitism.
You don't need any epic products to play epic games.
Don't you need an Epic account and the Epic store, which are Epic products?
Oh no, poor booby little has to visit a website for free entertainment
Solid mature reaction
This is a great game
