      Yeah they could stop giving away free games in a weak attempt to get people to use their shitty sub-par service. That probably costs them a good bit.

      The only games on Epic I "own" are the free games I've cared enough to grab... and I still have opened Epic exactly zero times to play any of them. Pointless.

    For all those who’ve lost their jobs, I’m sorry, and hope you land on your feet. For Epic…

    So Epic games can just cut 830 people because they're "spending way more than they earn" and nobody bats an eye. But when I cut 830 people because I spend way more than I earn, I'm "committing assault" and am "a menace to society."
