Free Games Thread

Only for those Steam users most likely which have accounts who spend "5 Euros / 5 US DOLLA". I doubt this has changed.

I just volunteered and tested it again - just copy paste of the text - too lazy for a screenshotl.

"In order to complete your purchase of Asterix & Obelix XXL: Romastered, you need to link your Fanatical account to an Unlimited Steam account. This is an account that has spent over $5.00 USD in the Steam Store.

Click below to go to Steam, where you can log into your account. Once you are logged in you will come back to Fanatical to complete your purchase."
This is probably in order to prevent creating Steam accounts, activating the game and selling said account. I noticed that's a thing on some keyshops a while back.
 
off topic: Steam could easily see that my account is very old with certain free games from "amd", and some others. The last of us on Steam was a amd giveaway with a hardware purchase.
It's a steam policy to discriminate users. One of several reason i stick to epic game store, free games or just compile my games myself

I do not post fanactial posts, as it requires a paid steam account. -> e.g. https://www.preisjaeger.at/deals/as...os-bis-0905-150525-steam-key-fanatical-346803
Same with amazon.de -> amazon gaming. It needs a paid amazon service
or indigala free games -> i see those as low quality ones


just as of now: Silent Gentlemen (PC) is free on IndieGala

Another fresh batch of Amazon Prime freebies...


Amnesia: Rebirth (via Epic Games Store)

Doors: Paradox (via Epic Games Store)

Hypnospace Outlaw (via GOG)

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Digital Deluxe Edition - PC (via Microsoft Store)

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Digital Deluxe Edition - XBOX (via Microsoft Store)
 
 
Steam is pretty tight with their freebies.. I guess that’s what we get for our “Years of Service” :wtf:

I'm not the biggest Steam fan, but I think it's very silly to hold it against them for having to spend 5€ once, during the lifetime of your account.

That 15% rating tho.

 
Funfact its 5 *of your local currency*
so its 5AUD as well
Not necessarily, since I've had to spend the equivalent of 5€ even if it isn't my local currency. In any case, I've used that because he's probably from Germany (on account of mentioning amazon.de)

Late Shift

Feels like you rolled up to the (grand)parents house and pulled a circa 1990 interactive party board game out of a closet that requires a VCR to play.

i thought i would have more games to give away, but turns out I didn't. i ended up redeeming all of the prime games after all.

anyways, I still have two other games to give away:

post here which one you want and I will PM you with the key they are steam keys
If nobody wants them, I'll take them. I don't want to be greedy, though. :ohwell:

Thank you!:lovetpu:

Normally, I wouldn't be cheeky to ask for both keys, but I saw you post this earlier, and no one reacted, so I assume no one else wanted them. :)

Well, it's not drawing up members like Epic by throwing up the games at them weekly.

But is is giving up game on giveaways, almost the same amount as GOG (or even more). :cool:
 
are pc games, like free 2 play, can its included on this thread ?

Actually.

I deleted my previous post. I just read the first post of this thread. The first post, original creator of this thread actually made this thread for precisely what you are referring to, I guess it just morphed into what we now know it as.

Holy shit, I had no idea.

The more you know.

What is real? How can I know? Wake up Neo
 
Free to play games are more than welcome.

Free to play games with cosmetic transactions only are welcome. (PUBG, for example)

Free base games with paid DLC are welcome. (Crusader Kings 2, for example).

Free to play games with paid progression (think World of Warships) and/or in-game advertisements need to be noted as such if they are posted here.


Hope this helps.

I already have Wolfenstein II on Steam, so if anyone wants it, PM me please.
That goes for all the other free games on Prime currently. I either have them or I simply don't have the time for so many games!

That did help. Thank you!
 
Edited, I meant CK2 not CK3. CK3 is not free to play.

Also, it is generally appreciated if any free2play games with MTX, even cosmetic, are noted as such.

Does that include Syberia 4 and/or Mafia 3?
