• Free Game: Dishonored & Eximius

    From Spalls Hurgenson@21:1/5 to All on Thu Dec 29 11:09:57 2022
    My video game library runneth over; what a first world problem to
    have. And every day Epic is making the problem more severe. And what
    tsunami are they unleashing today?

    * Dishonored Definitive Edition https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/dishonored-definitive-edition
    So, Dishonored again. Not that it's been a freebie on Epic before, but
    it's been on-offer as a gratis game numerous times elsewhere, so
    everybody probably already has a copy. Still, no complaints; in this
    world of tenuous ownership of digital assets, the more platforms on
    which I can acquire a game, the better. And - while I'm not the
    biggest fan - "Dishonored" is an excellent game and well worth owning
    (and playing) multiple times.


    * Eximius: Sieze the Frontline https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/eximius-seize-the-frontline
    A dlc-heavy online first-person shooter/strategy game. Well, it's no "Dishonored", but why not.


    This time, you have a 7 days to claim these games. That's right, the
    daily give-aways are over. Now we gotta wait a whole WEEK before we
    get more freebies! The fiends!

    They both look like pretty good games.

    Well I already have it and definitely worth a play although I found it
    suffered from what I think a lot of games do. After a while it just
    feels like I'm doing the same thing. It's something I feel that HL:1/2
    did really well. The levels have some quite different feels to them so I
    didn't get to that this is getting boring stage.
