Epic Games Store and money 

@DaisyHead they don't have a cart system, which is inherently frustrating, but I don't think that affects me if I'm just making one purchase.

I hadn't heard about the security problems though, thanks for letting me know

Epic Games Store and money

I'm… slightly worried about the Epic Games Store.
Their current "megasale" has a special deal going, where *everyone* gets a $10 coupon just for signing in.

And if you use that coupon to get $10 off a game purchase.... you get another $10 coupon to use.

This (along with the weekly free games) doesn't seem like a financially viable idea…

It seems like they're desperately hoping for customers.

What's going to happen to all the games people bought if EGS stops working?

@verity oh cool!

My guide eventually gets stuck at a certain point (because I couldn't track down a copy of a certain episode), but I'm happy to send you my thoughts about later episodes when you get up to there
