    Agreed. I loved the first but I’m not going to install epic for one game

        So to compensate for a poor service that is epic game launcher you have to turn to oss solution maintained by the community thanklessly while still giving epic the 25% cut of your sale? I’d rather not give epic any money at all

          As I previously said, I don’t advocate for buying from Epic. But if it happens that you have some games from their Store (for whatever reason, like ones you got for free) there are alternatives to their client.

        I primarily play on TV and VR so big picture is already my interface of choice

        Edit: does it even support Steam? They’re not advertising it on the FAQ:

        Support for launching games from the Epic Games Store and GOG

        I use playknight, though I still don’t buy from epic.

        Play knight gives me an overview of all humble keys I haven’t used as well as gog, steam, epic, etc.

        Just helps me make sure I don’t buy a game on sale that I own
