I should make a post ripping all of them a new one. Someone remind me this upcoming weekend.

make a post ripping Uplay, Origin, GoG, Steam, Discord and Twitch a new one
-reminder posted
Iāve never tried the Uplay launcher really - only wanted to play Prince of Persia Sands of Time and the Assassinās Creed stuff they gave away one year. Dunno why people are so mad at it.
Steam is odd to me, but it doesnāt crash super often so Iām not that mad.
Origin works okay - have played Sims 2 and a bit of Plants vs Zombies.
GOG - only just started on that. No controller set up at all, so itās Joy2key for that. Trying to play Alone in the Dark 1 - you know, one of those old DOS games where you die a whole lot. Saves, ftw.
I may be a bit obsessed with Edward Carnby
Epic - got a few of the freebies, never installed the launcher. Still would love if just play Hades - itās so pretty, versatile and fun looking and the voice actingā¦
If you want some more kindling, Iāve also got Kartridge, which is the Kongregate launcherā¦
how exactly does Twitch fit into that list?
twitch client +prime games?
just listed everything i remembered that had a client and did games
-would have put Humble on there too, but they donāt bother with a launcher and doesnāt seem to force torrent on you with still having direct downloads
so yea, Twitchā¦
rip 'em up good Pylinaer !
thereās Twitch client games? didnāt even know; i know u get games from Twitch prime through Amazon prime, but i didnt know those went through a client, i assumed those were direct download or something
does Twitch sell games too? or is it just for free Prime games?
iāve no idea manā¦
i just know twitch has a client, and does games
whether or not those 2 are even connected at all i canāt be bothered with(would kinda assumed was downloaded via amazon/direct download too),
-but they have both, so in my category they fit for a rippin
ā¦
okay i actually did just bother to check, and according to this How to Claim Your Free Twitch Prime Games | Tom's Guide
Any free games you get from Twitch Prime need to be launched via the Twitch desktop app
so they are definitely most deserving of a placement in the "rip 'em a new one"department
They do sell games. Itās not very well organized, to be perfectly honest.
You can find their game store here:
ā¦
after a Google search, it seems the game store shut down last November due to how little it was used. The fact that I didnāt even know that speaks volumes.
Well, Twitch, thank you for your service. You made me a DMC fan.
From my experience the Twitch client is the worst them all, with no features except for launching the games, and I donāt think you can even launch them if youāre offline. But theyāve given away some great games that Iām happy to play even if I need to use their client.
Twitch didnāt actively stop me from playing Devil May Cry HD on Steam, so still better than Epic IMO.
Reminder was supposed to be this weekend. As in, starting today.
alright, iāve got all of them downloaded and have dabbled a bit with each. Iāve got flak for all of them already. Iāll cook up a post tomorrow with everything I can find.
Since the main feature of this monthās humble monthly was a Uplay title I was obviously not going to pay $12 to keep the sub going from last month. But then a couple of days a go Humble decided to send me a link to give a āfriendā a free month trial to the monthly. Which of course my good friend Alt Email accepted.
I hope the unlocked games are worth creating a new humble account for.
So AC:Origins they is offering now are not for steam?
No it isnāt even a uplay key, you have to link your ubisoft account to humble to redeem it.
iām kinda curious what you have done to keep getting all these bonus promo monthly emails
i wonder if itās the whole āplaying hard to getā that makes all the difference
Yeah gotta keep blueballing them until they just canāt stand it anymore. Dangle that credit card in front of them then pull away and cancel the payment in the last week. : )
ahh thatās why,
welp, iām too easy, they practically own my credit card at this point and barely has to ask before going shopping at the mall
This is the funniest part though:
IāM just such a loyal customer you know!
Wishful thinking on their part I believe. Or are they trying to guilt trip me?
Ooohā¦ oh no they think Iāve been loyal? Oh my now I feel so bad about only buying the stuff I want, Iā¦ I guess I should get that 12 month sub now.
