borderland 3 is free on epic

One "major" new free title every thursday on epic as part of their mystery game. Fail to see why someone would jump onto their sale and not wait to see what the next big game is first.

Borderlands 3 was 2019, not 6 years ago. RDR 2 was 2018.

Totally depends whether the publisher takes Epic's bait of a huge payment to make the game free for a week or thinks they can earn more through normal sales. Since Epic spent nearly 12 million dollars on free games last year, one can assume a blockbuster game would get between a quarter to half a million dollars easily which might be tempting for some games that are dropping in sales. So all bets are open.

The free games and the cheap GPU subscription from last year has all but made Steam invisible to me, even though my Steam library contains 500+ games.

is that relevant or a response to what I said?

I was only pointing out that godofwar_skr's reasoning had some holes in it.

Also, what do you mean by GPU subscription?

I was backing you up on godofwar_skr's reply with the fact that it is the money and not the age of the game that matters.

I was also referring to the Game Pass Ultimate loophole from last year providing a 30 month subscription for 2.5k and Epic's giveaway which has all but meant I have to abandon my Steam backlog.
