That's the reason I absolutly refuse to ever buy a game from Epic. Fuck'em.

Not only Epic. Line "just use Proton and complain to Steam support if it doesn't work" is coming more common.

they just give you games for free anyway, no need to ever buy from them.

Well, most of those games suck anways. I just grab them cause it loses them money.

I think they would lose more if people don't event grab their free games
