I love getting free games and just... never touching them again ever. Hitting that download button on a free game is such a nice tiny dopamine hit. Edit: Oh hey though I watched the trailer for Halcyon6 after I downloaded it and it actually looks pretty fun. I'm a sucker for pixel art style games.

I bought Halcyon 6 on Steam a while ago and didn't regret it. It can be a liiiittle repetitive, but there's fun to be had. If the premise piques your interest and the price is free, I'd say it's worth your time to check it out.

I played waaaaay more games via the Bigfish game launcher than via Epic. Don't know what conclusions to draw from that (if any)

Garfield Kart and Syberia free at IndieGala...

A friend got Garfield Kart last year for a laugh and frankly it's the most sobering game to ever exist. It's so unbelievably bland and sterile feeling, it's a wonder to behold honestly.

A good poster posted:I opened up the Uplay client to check if I'd gotten this for free before, and not only was it there, but Assassin's Creed 2 got in there at some point along with 3, Black Flag, and Unity. I remember getting 3 for free and thinking I could tell people that the worst game was my introduction to the series, and I also remember they gave away Unity when Notre Dame caught fire. I'm a little hazy on when they gave away Black Flag, but seeing 2 in there was a complete surprise to me. 2 and Black Flag are probably the best of that generation of AssCreed games, so if you're bored I recommend checking them out.

I have played every AC game to date except Valhalla and 3 the only one I can't stand. It has some decent moments, and I like a few characters, but overall the weakest game for sure.

Unity was pretty panned when it released too, but they ended up fixing most of the bugs and it's a pretty respectable entry these days. The "Ubisoft map filled with pointless collectibles" is probably at the nadir in Unity, but Forrest Gumping through the French Revolution is really funny (and the time travel sequences are quite cool).

There are some really good moments in AC3, esp the homestead stuff. I liked the AC formula enough at the time to not be bothered by a lot of the flaws but that is far from a good game.

Yeah, the Homestead stuff makes up 90% of the good moments for me. I think the prologue/introduction also lands really well. Some other bits here and there, and the portrayal of the historical characters is interesting at times. Honestly the biggest issue for me is how flat and boring the game world is. It turns out tall, interesting buildings to climb were pretty loving rare in Revolutionary America. Or put another way, when one of you "High Points" is a moderately sized hill you know something is off. The forest was fun to run around in for awhile but gets stale and the ship combat was genuinely fun if extremely limited and largely optional. Like the above poster said its still the AC formula and at the time I was (am) still in to that enough to enjoy it even with all the flaws. I did 100% complete it after all. But with 8 games since it's hard to reccomend. I also think Unity is pretty good, but the story isn't my favorite. And those riddle collectibles that require knowledge of both French History and Architecture can gently caress right off. I don't think I've ever opened a guide faster lmao.

JustJeff88 posted:Oof, I missed that one. AssCreed is such a ludicrous series that playing all of them is impossible I'll get there...someday..... I'm currently in the middle of Odyssey because I needed Kassandra in my life, but I'm not lying when I say part of the reason I decided to buy ACO was to get my hands on a working copy of AC3 + the PSP spinoff.

Xander77 posted:Nope. Liberation. No contest. It's ugly, it's pointless, it's dull, none of the gameplay or story ideas go anywhere. Isnt liberation a vita game? Most people don’t really count the side stuff because most people never played them or even owned something that could.

Liberation was supposed to be a Vita exclusive, but when the Vita tanked they ported it to console and PC. When viewed through that lens, it’s actually not a bad game for its era and kinda cool that they came close to a console quality experience on a hand held. The game itself is not a completely terrible rear end Creed game but is glitchy and buggy at times. The story is crap though, very badly done, but that’s par for the course since the Ezio games...

FREEGAME330060 for a free game on Big Fish Games There's also a V-Day promotion, but sadly I can't seem to finagle things to get two free games at once.

If you're looking at Big Fish games, I like the Gamehouse games such as Heart's Medicine and Primrose Lake. They're kind of like a Hallmark movie or a soap opera but I like them somehow? If you like jigsaw puzzles Glass Masquerade is my favorite. Very relaxing game.

Dont forget to buy your Rage Coins while you are there. The Drift game looks like it may be fun for a bit.

The drift game is fun for a bit, but it's something you'll have to put time into to get good.
