Free Games Thread

I think I will give the Sims 4 a try now, never really gave it a fair shake. I remember last time I tried the free demo, I hated how bloated the UI I was. not sure why modern game companies try to throw everything in your face these days, but its a dumb ass decision.
Sims 4 is mostly enjoyed with the Wicked Whims patch... :D
 

TREE, it's pretty fun on Steam Deck so far. unique graphics too
 
Deceit 2

 
This was posted twice already on the previous page, just fyi
This is one of the best Epic freebies for many a long time and definitely worth grabbing. I already have it on Steam and it's a great game.
 
I'm glad it was reposted because I missed the first one!

This Game is basically (in Gameplay) the PC answer to Metal Gear. if you like that style of Game this will give you hours of enjoyment. It does have some very hard missions though.
 
A bit early with all the freebie DLC for COTW: The Angler. Only truly useful one you need is the "Classic Tackle Pack."
Also spoiler might be helpful.


Game is not very mature. Dev pushes signing up for their special "Club" EVERY TIME YOU OPEN THE GAME!!!!! until you do and it just loads. MP has routinely been a mess and again, forced on you (though possible to opt out of (sometimes, after some updates)). See below for more on that. Otherwise the game works but is lacking full graphical development that will come over years.



As mentioned previously, large interesting update coming next week adding considerable features. It arrives the same day as a new map that may or may not excite. One of the most cried over fixes should be MP time changes. Get into a server - time changes. Lose it a few minutes later and get into another - time changes. Because of complaints about this daytime currently lasts like 4 IRL hours and night lasts 15 minutes or some nonsense. Enough fish only bite at night to be kinda :laugh:



Since I'm already typing this - If you like the game you will like the Norway map. If you really like that map, rod/reel DLC (effectively best mid-range gear) start to make sense. One last note, do the side missions climbing mountains (etc. non-fishing related) and drive jeeps off cliffs getting places. A specific design criteria upheld thus far was it is impossible to wreck a vehicle but you can get it stuck.

Looks like you forgot actual base game required:

No, everything I posted was currently free*. At whatever the set time local to you the base game released, actually, it was then finally appropriate to post in here.

Having spent numerous hours in COTW:Angler both in and out of early release. My spoiler critique was avoiding fanaticism. Hope everyone picking it up enjoys it, bugs and all. :)


*Epic has done a bait and switch multiples of multiple times. "A bit early" was not a bad choice of words. Besides, extras usually get missed in the first post. :)
 
Book of Demons free on gog.com

GET this game. Its amazing in its own way. Better than D4, too :)
 
Hit me up if anyone wants GOG code for Fallout 2 or Fallout Tactics.

Edit.
@Courier 6 got the fallout tactics.

IGN and Kotaku have just written about Undawn, a free to play zombie game from Tencent that no one has ever heard about. Perhaps a catchier name for the game may have helped.
It appears to be a mobile game ported to PC, according to Steam reviews, so I'll probably download it (20GB) and see what happens.

Oh wow that looks godawful. Texture detail all over the place, poor framerate, hexagonal circles for assets... clearly a mobile port

It also installs SGuard anti-cheat which is being described as spyware, so it's a pass for me.
