[This is a sticky post, it will be visible in every single page of this thread. It has been published in October 2020.]

Our moderation team decided not to take a side in the discussion since this giveaway thread was created by the community and, as long as there are no forum rules violated, is up to you, dear Gogers, to decide its fate. We will not set giveaway rules, edit the OP's post, nor lock the whole thread.

However, to make it easier for newcomers to understand the situation (about the OP being inactive and other), I will stick my own post right above the first one.

You are, of course, free to create new threads to start anew and make your own, clear rules. At the same time, please stay reasonable when crating them, as multiple new duplicates might make it even more confusing for many Gogers.

That being said, here you can find a post with dxenija's community poll to have better understanding of the situation: CLICK.

At the time of writing, open giveaway threads are:
- Massive Giveaways Blog
- Free (temporary) keys giveaway central topic. (this one)
- Updated Itch.io giveaways

Be nice to each other *flies away*

Some of the games that Epic don't come with a free side-order of DRM and will work outside of Epic's launcher. If you're not sure, just claim everything. I'll make a post again as to what has DRM and what doesn't once the daily giveaway thing is over.

No DRM - Costume Quest 2
Epic Launcher Required (DRM) - Bloons TD 6, Horizon Chase Turbo

Also the giveaway isn't all repeats. Horizon Chase Turbo may have been given away before, but this is the first time that the others have been given away since I made an account. That's also including Sable.

Costume Quest 2 is also a repeat. It was originally given away in October 2020.

That's actually the case for most games I own on Epic.

DRM is usually only needed for games that have online high scores and of course pure multiplayer games.
In Death Stranding it's optional. One can play completely offline or online and thereby see and use other player's lost parcels and built structures, take assignments from them. Offline is of course a lot more realistic, but then building the streets in the second section or the zipline network in section three can become a pain for the lack of resources.

Mind you that the lower - longer - list is often "unknown".

I think you missed part of what I said, so I stuck it in bold - see above.


Also Costume Quest 2 specifically is something that I've wanted and didn't own until Epic gave it away yesterday. Now I don't have to keep hoping that it shows up on GOG. <3
