That sounds like a failing on Epic users to me. I ran Heroic on windows before I made the switch to linux. The fact that Epic gives shit away for free without even requiring their launcher is pretty insane if you think about it. A lot of the games can run DRM-free from Epic as well (the original Horizon: Zero Dawn for example).
Yea, Tim Sweeney is from the old school tech cadre that believes that taking a business loss to keep the ultra-nerds happy can buy more public/community goodwill than traditional advertising.
He’s also from old school tech in that he’s an unapologetic asshole who thinks he’s god’s gift to earth.
I’m still gonna take pennies out of his pocket by taking as many free games as I can. At least most of the people involved in making games aren’t assholes.
Sure, but you realize how niche that is right? Like Heroic is literally less than .1% of Epic users.

That’s fair but anyone can run it that way without it having root access, even on Windows.
