I believe it is the free games, sir.

There is remotely nothing about that launcher that makes me go "yup, I'm happy to have this thing installed". Tim Sweeny seems to love eating his own shit as his diet, because he seems to believe he's superior than Valve.

Why does their launcher suck so much bandwidth and CPU usage to get a game downloaded? Jesus.

I have a few dozen epic games, but I have never once bought anything from the store. I probably never will also. Not even dlc's for the free games i got. I have repurchased free epic games i like on other stores like steam and gog though. I think its the vibe that epic radiates. Also it really does seem to take much longer to download games on epic.
