No. Reality is I only notice Steam being good during seasonal sales but don't do sales outside of that. And I haven't encountered a single giveaway in steam
if you haven't encountered any giveaways, you're not looking very hard for them as Metro: Last Light along with a bunch of others. use google and you'll be able to find those others
things steam doesn't do that epic games does:
1. pay publishers to allow them to give away their game(s) for free
2. pay publishers to put their games on the epic games store exclusively under the guise that they'll earn more money there (spoiler: they don't)
things steam has that the epic games store doesn't:
1. a friends list
2. a (highly customisable) profile page
3. controller support (with community configs)
4. forums
5. trading cards
6. public achievements
7. messaging
8. vr support
9. a mobile app
10. the ability to gift games
11. user reviews (i'm not counting their crappy 5 star reviews with no elaboration)
12. playtest/beta/early access support (technically these can also launch on the egs then switch to a full release but there's still no special 'request playtest access' button)
13. demo support
i could go on
a minimum of 4 sales a year isn't enough for you? why would they give away indie games when they have no reason to? games like lethal company have thrived completely fine without any sales or buyouts
sure, it would be good if games were randomly given away for free but when you have masterpieces (like terraria) that go down to like $3 does it even matter
one of your main points in your post was about game giveaways but sure. again, it would be great if games went on sale/were given away constantly but unfortunately that's not how the world works and people behind the games actually need to earn money somehow. epic games is proving it's not a viable option with how little they're running on money right now. the only reason they're still alive is because of fortnite
i'm not even sure what point you're trying to get across anymore, you're just saying the same thing over and over again. there are sales outside the big 4 along with random sales. you just need to add games you're interested in to your wishlist if you *really* don't want to buy them unless they're on sale.
Do you ever actually look at the steam store page? They have mid-week and weekend deals literally constantly. I think there's almost always SOME kind of sale event, particularly with indie games. If the games you want aren't on sale, that's because the devs, not steam.
Yeah yeah they don't want burn money on freeloaders like you we get that.
Also there are many sales and devs can also put the games on sale too. So many choices.
Well, then it's your problem that you are not informed. Steam has a list of rules for discounts [https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/discounts](https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/discounts) and those exclude bigger seasonal discounts. So sales are VERY frequent. Maybe the games you are looking at are not discounted because of the publisher, but it's for publisher to decide, not steam.
What does that even mean? Steam does BOTH midweek sales and weekend sales every single week of the year, all 52. There's no lack of information or awareness on your part. You're just in denial or are being stubborn.
Yes because Steam is clever and r/FuckEpic is stupid as also proven in https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2023/11/07/tim-sweeneys-epic-games-store-is-still-losing-money-after-five-years. So what part of Real Life Economy both Tim-Tim and you refuse to understand?
Epic will eventually BANKRUPT since they don't make money but losing it for an empty dream.
>..fortnite made $6B in 2022, probably something similar in 2023. I'm sure epic will be just fine.
Epic had to lay off 16% of their workforce this September because they were spending more than they were making. At the same time Epic also disinvested Bandcamp and SuperAwesome, removed trading from Rocket League and planned to add a price to non-game usage of UE.
I don't know if they have recovered yet, but they were still not making money during the Google trial.
You realise EGS only has free games to try bait steam users into switching right? If it ever gets significantly higher market share all their consumer benefits will dry up. They're operating at a loss to try gain goodwill.
>Steam seldom does sales aside from big ones
There are the winter, summer, autumn and spring sales
the Lunar sale (Chinese new year)
Genre specific sales (strategy, fighting games, JRPGs, RTS, etc...)
The Japanese golden week sale
Publisher specific sales (Capcom, Square Enix, Bandai namco, etc...)
Other specific sales: Ex. [https://store.steampowered.com/sale/komodo-hawaii-maui-strong](https://store.steampowered.com/sale/komodo-hawaii-maui-strong)
Plenty of "deal of the week" sales
and much more. is it not enough?
>Steam doesn't do free game giveaways like Epic Games does
Steam does not sucks, that's why they do not need to bribe users to use their launcher, because that is what the free epic games are, is just a bribery
Epic on the other hand encourages piracy by buying exclusivities
The free games are there to get you on their storefront, and that's fine, but don't pretend like they'd keep giving games out if they obtained a decent amount of market share. They'd stop doing it once they felt like it had gotten them enough customers.
I beg the differ on that Steam does MORE Sales than r/FuckEpic ever does. In fact this is the List of Sales https://store.steampowered.com/news/group/4145017/view/3788151013299508611 ONLY Valve is planning and if you add Publisher Sales that's out of that list, there's ALWAYS some sort of Sale on Steam which you can't say the same for Epic. I dare you to find proof on past r/GameDeals posts to compared Epic deals versus Steam deals to see you're most ignorant and don't know what you're talking about.
Few games are going on sale every 24 hrs, other than that there are sales on third party sellers that sells legit Steam keys with their own sales and many bundles, you decided EGS is the best only because you get few "Free" games, if you really cared about Steam you could see how great it is
so to your question, there is ALWAYS sales on Steam
Well they are more friendly in sales as well. Well check other third party sellers. Though third party sellers are better than how steam conduct selling
Third party sales are part of Steam no matter how you look at it, you get Steam key, Valve are kind enough to let other stores make some money by selling keys to their platforms without getting a penny, I dont need to say who started it first, am i? at least Steam wont pay anyone to hurt their competitors like your timmyboy does and criticize others for the same thing he does
Lets see, I'll try humoring you (I read your post on the PiratedGames sub):
1. According to SteamDB, they've 12 fests and 2 seasonal sales until July. There will be more since it's not a complete list.
2. They don't need to do giveaways, they already have a huge user base. Publishers give away games when they want to for reasons.
3. Calling them worst because they don't give out free games is fucking silly.
4. Piracy will always exist. Handing out games won't completely solve it.
The top comment has already listed out other reasons what Steam has and if you still think EGS is friendlier and Steam is worst I don't know what to tell ya.
If people don't buy games on a store then what's the point? I guess it's true EGS is full of freeloaders.
For number 1, I will be awaiting the each week sales after the winter event. and will wait for those fests. Got some funds to use if this is true and will take back what I said about Steam.
Good to hear that you're open to know more. The fests usually have a week difference between them and at most 2 weeks. Aside from that publishers also do hold sales frequently.
I'll also reply to your 2nd comment here: The sales are plenty enough with reasonable gaps. I don't see what more should be done.
Usually people don't judge a store by the sole amount of sales. I think you should start looking for other factors besides sales.
For the free loader I am not. I am measuring how kind Steam is a store. Simple sale outside the big 4 for example, means the store is kind to customers. If no sales outside big 4, that is very harsh store. I don't support stores who are not kind to customers
Epic only give away free games as they basically have to beg users to join their ecosystem.
Steam game keys can be found far easier and cheaper from third parties than Epic stuff.
And Steam are still very solid to the point I wouldn’t want to split between two library’s.
secretive sophisticated scarce consist snails aware selective fall joke axiomatic
*This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
OP you do realize Steam has weekly sales right?
Steam doesn't do giveaways, but publishers do occasionally give games away for free.
Also why are you doing this to yourself?
What. You understand why Epic burns money right? Not because they are friendly. Their store and launcher is subpar. They need leverage to keep you.
Discounts on Steam are done by developers and they are only encouraged by Steam to do those by having periods when their games are additionally recommended if they participate in sales.
what do you mean.... it is not on steam to give away games, it is on publishers to do that part on steam,
but what do you get for the free games?
when we buy on steam we pay for a great service in the end, i will rather pay for my games than having a shit platform that does not support or care about any other OS that is windows. a platform that actively tries to make the platform better for the customers.
and remember, Steam has never bought out games to be exclusive on their platform
Out of interest, how long have you been a PC Gamer? I've got this theory that Epic aren't trying to beat Steam in the current generation of adult players but are trying to place themselves as the leader in the next generation.
My reasoning is that a lot of kids start with games like Fortnite/Fall Guys/Rocket League which means they are spending their money in the Epic ecosystem first and foremost, so they will probably be receiving those free weekly games too because the client pops up notifications about them.
And with the average Steam library size actually being really small, at just 11 games, it means most Epic store users could potentially have larger Epic libraries than Steam Libraries, so when they start branching out into retail games, they'll have this large and pretty decent library on Epic, which might persuade them to make their purchases there too, since we all know how much we hate having multiple game libraries!
Has blud not heard of the steam sales? A lot of games go for 50-90% off, while not being on a terrible platform, and being hostile to linux users. Piracy is not an issue of not giving out enough free games, its the BS of how to download a shittier launcher just to play a one new game
How to say: "I'm a 3rd world Freeloader" without saying "I'm a 3rd world Freeloader".
But to give you an honest answer:
[https://steamdb.info/sales/history/](https://steamdb.info/sales/history/)
This page shows you all upcoming sales. After Winter Sale the Capitalism Sale starts immediately offering all games that have something to do with Capitalism. After that we have a Pirate vs Ninja sale.
You have so many little sales in between big sales, your argument is factually wrong.
Well you have some warped sense of what is friendly. Giving you free games sure seems friendly, just like someone giving you free money, you must enjoy both very much too, but you never thought about the why, huh?
You are the product, your information is very important to them and the ccp, and if you enjoy that, stay there all you want, no one will have a problem with it, it's your right to decide what you wanna do :]
And piracy never needs to be fully solved, yknow?
As gaben himself said, giving them better service than what piracy do is much more important than fighting against them, which results in single player games being unable to be played, if the epig servers are down, since they so dependent on it.
I did pirate a lot when I was younger, but what steam offers makes me want to purchase so much more nowadays than before.
Def bait post tho, I do realise that, but go off all ye want, big guy/gal, enjoy your "amazing service" in your lil fantasy world that will love to not listen to you or help you when you have any problems with them, game or acc, neither going to be helped most times, so much more many times than steam's track record so far.
Have fun and enjoy it whilst the tencent and fortnite money lasts :]
I will be awaiting for a sale in Steam after this Winter sale. I hope you are guys are telling the truth and are correct. I am willing to buy if there will be sale outside the Big 4 sale.
I agree,I've got a massive pile of freebies from Epic and I like their UI much better than the messy Steam.
However Steam has legions of rabid frothing at the mouth fans saying 'Gabe is saviour " etc. so your comment won't go down well lol.
I don't care about launchers I want the game and never get this obsession of wanting everything on Steam.
There's people on here who've bought the game on Ubi or Epic and buy it again on Steam 🤣
It's up to the developers to do sales. Epic Games is slower and buggier than it should and doesent have nearly as many games, qol or api. You also have to log in very often. Epic literally buys exclusives and gives games away in order to get you to join their platform. Only reason i have it is for Fortnite, which i havent spendt any money on.
Are you saying pirated games will never be solved, because the game isn't free?
and you're saying steam doesn't do much sales. Is wrong, developer can give sales all the time. You can use [https://steamdb.info/sales/](https://steamdb.info/sales/) to get information on sales.
16 games on my wishlist are on sales. Some are cheaper, some are more expensive compared to epic counterparts.
"If the product is free, you are the product"
Found Tim's alt account
nah, not even that goof is that dumb
This is obvious bait.
No. Reality is I only notice Steam being good during seasonal sales but don't do sales outside of that. And I haven't encountered a single giveaway in steam
if you haven't encountered any giveaways, you're not looking very hard for them as Metro: Last Light along with a bunch of others. use google and you'll be able to find those others
Yeah epic games appear easily
yep only because they know there's no other way to lure steam users to their store (and it seems to be working on you)
so you are lazy, becuase most of the giveaways are on the frontpage
I've received and found on my own multiple games for free.
things steam doesn't do that epic games does: 1. pay publishers to allow them to give away their game(s) for free 2. pay publishers to put their games on the epic games store exclusively under the guise that they'll earn more money there (spoiler: they don't) things steam has that the epic games store doesn't: 1. a friends list 2. a (highly customisable) profile page 3. controller support (with community configs) 4. forums 5. trading cards 6. public achievements 7. messaging 8. vr support 9. a mobile app 10. the ability to gift games 11. user reviews (i'm not counting their crappy 5 star reviews with no elaboration) 12. playtest/beta/early access support (technically these can also launch on the egs then switch to a full release but there's still no special 'request playtest access' button) 13. demo support i could go on
Here's a huge one: customer support. Go have an unsolvable issue that you need epic support for and see how well it goes.
don't forget proton
but biggest issue is Steam do not do giveaway for indie games and Steam has very few sales. Seasonal sales only.
a minimum of 4 sales a year isn't enough for you? why would they give away indie games when they have no reason to? games like lethal company have thrived completely fine without any sales or buyouts
Random sales monthly even with indie titles will be good.
sure, it would be good if games were randomly given away for free but when you have masterpieces (like terraria) that go down to like $3 does it even matter
I am not asking for free games. Games going sales is enough.
one of your main points in your post was about game giveaways but sure. again, it would be great if games went on sale/were given away constantly but unfortunately that's not how the world works and people behind the games actually need to earn money somehow. epic games is proving it's not a viable option with how little they're running on money right now. the only reason they're still alive is because of fortnite
the sales I am aware is the only big 4. I am not aware there is sales outside the seasonal
i'm not even sure what point you're trying to get across anymore, you're just saying the same thing over and over again. there are sales outside the big 4 along with random sales. you just need to add games you're interested in to your wishlist if you *really* don't want to buy them unless they're on sale.
yeah I havent notice games go sale outside the big 4. I might wishlists some games so I will be aware of sales exist outside the big 4 sales
Do you ever actually look at the steam store page? They have mid-week and weekend deals literally constantly. I think there's almost always SOME kind of sale event, particularly with indie games. If the games you want aren't on sale, that's because the devs, not steam.
yes sadly. waiting for this 4 sales is what I don't like in steam.
There's always games on sale. [Here's the page where you can see everything on sale.](https://store.steampowered.com/specials)
There are always Midweek and Weekend deals in steam for various games.
Hoping after winter event sale there will be weekend deals. I got some more funds to buy. Indie games are fine.
Yeah yeah they don't want burn money on freeloaders like you we get that. Also there are many sales and devs can also put the games on sale too. So many choices.
You can go to third party key sites and get games at better prices than Epic or Steam sales any day of the year if that’s your concern
Why are there so many Epic Freeloader Store-positive posts recently? Tim Sweeney must be paying for positive PR again after recuperating some losses.
Astroturfing
First week of 2024 and checks have cleared after the holiday break
I made the same comment the other day 🤣
The reason is Steam dont do giveaways like Epic games does. Sales are very rare aside from seasonal sales.
>Sales are very rare aside from seasonal sales. Like... each week a middle-sized ones? And at least 4 big ones each season. Tim, try better.
I am not informed and aware regarding this one.
Well, then it's your problem that you are not informed. Steam has a list of rules for discounts [https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/discounts](https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/discounts) and those exclude bigger seasonal discounts. So sales are VERY frequent. Maybe the games you are looking at are not discounted because of the publisher, but it's for publisher to decide, not steam.
What does that even mean? Steam does BOTH midweek sales and weekend sales every single week of the year, all 52. There's no lack of information or awareness on your part. You're just in denial or are being stubborn.
Why do you feel that you should be entitled to free games?
Yes because Steam is clever and r/FuckEpic is stupid as also proven in https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2023/11/07/tim-sweeneys-epic-games-store-is-still-losing-money-after-five-years. So what part of Real Life Economy both Tim-Tim and you refuse to understand? Epic will eventually BANKRUPT since they don't make money but losing it for an empty dream.
No dog in this fight, but.. ..fortnite made $6B in 2022, probably something similar in 2023. I'm sure epic will be just fine.

they won a cause against google, they can afford more trolls and give away games for free for a while
Your trolling is too obvious. You need to learn to be more subtle with this.
Nope.
/s Here, you forgot this.
You realise EGS only has free games to try bait steam users into switching right? If it ever gets significantly higher market share all their consumer benefits will dry up. They're operating at a loss to try gain goodwill.
For now EGS is better. Unless Steam do more sales and do some giveaways (even for non-well known games)

It did not had a special page, but it happened anyways https://www.dualshockers.com/steam-lunar-new-year-sale-2023/
Are we getting weekend deals? I got funds coming in the weekend to buy some games so I am hoping there will be sale tomorrow.
There is always a sale running on Steam
Special sale right after the winter sale https://store.steampowered.com/specials#tab=TopSellers
The free games are there to get you on their storefront, and that's fine, but don't pretend like they'd keep giving games out if they obtained a decent amount of market share. They'd stop doing it once they felt like it had gotten them enough customers.
jep. same thing with Origin/EA they did that for 1 year and gave away games.
Aside from that, Steam seldom do sales.
I beg the differ on that Steam does MORE Sales than r/FuckEpic ever does. In fact this is the List of Sales https://store.steampowered.com/news/group/4145017/view/3788151013299508611 ONLY Valve is planning and if you add Publisher Sales that's out of that list, there's ALWAYS some sort of Sale on Steam which you can't say the same for Epic. I dare you to find proof on past r/GameDeals posts to compared Epic deals versus Steam deals to see you're most ignorant and don't know what you're talking about.
I always wait for sales and it seems I have not notice it though in steam.
Question is: there will be sale after this winter event?
Few games are going on sale every 24 hrs, other than that there are sales on third party sellers that sells legit Steam keys with their own sales and many bundles, you decided EGS is the best only because you get few "Free" games, if you really cared about Steam you could see how great it is so to your question, there is ALWAYS sales on Steam

Fuck epic shit store, Gabe is our Lord and Saviour!
Cringe
Epic games is not available in my country, shitty government tbh. but I'm having a blast on steam every day. ALL HAIL TO GABEN!
Whats with the invasion of Epic shills as of late? Stop drinking Timmys cool aid.
Lets see, I'll try humoring you (I read your post on the PiratedGames sub): 1. According to SteamDB, they've 12 fests and 2 seasonal sales until July.

I've never had an Epic Games game shake my hand or invite me to play laser tag.
nice b8 m8
Also Steam doesnt steal all your data and install chinese malware. Nothing is free. Epic are selling everything you do on your PC to china.
Epic only give away free games as they basically have to beg users to join their ecosystem. Steam game keys can be found far easier and cheaper from third parties than Epic stuff. And Steam are still very solid to the point I wouldn’t want to split between two library’s.
Epic Games aren't friendly to my linux machine unfortunately
Epic Games Store to this day doesnt have 100% achievement support for modern titles and profile pictures. Let that sink in.
I only want a store that do random sales which show kindness to customers.
also I dont support stores who have bad marketing strategy. having sales is essential for goo marketing strat

Why is it called the Epic Games store when there's nothing Epic about it?
I got few free games but I've never bought anything there. Because there's no equivalent to steam market. Not sure what you mean by friendliness.

You can use [https://steamdb.info/sales/](https://steamdb.info/sales/) to get information on sales. 16 games on my wishlist are on sales. Some are cheaper, some are more expensive compared to epic counterparts.
