  • My Heroic-library of EG titles (nosound) 2027-07-15

    Scroll-through of Heroic games library recorded with OBS Studio on 2026-07-15.

    (No audio commentary).

    I think this video shows all of my games collected via Epic Games promos, from around 2020 to present. I didn't bother with the promos for last week. The faded title-cards indicate the game is currently 'hidden'. Heroic has some features for organizing games, but Playnite might be better for that. I have not tried Launchbox yet, not sure if it's just for DOS games or works as a manager for more recent games too.

    My main considerations when deciding whether to 'purchase' a $0 promo license for a game are:

    1. whether the game looks fun (promotional material, gossip websites, playthrough videos)
    2. what type of DRM it has (does it require additional software to play, will it still be playable in 5 years, is it a single player game that requires internet, do the companies involved exploit my metadata, etc.)?
    3. can the game run on either my current system or specs that I can reasonably expect to afford in the future?
    4. artistic merit and inspiration for my own dabblings into gamedev

      5. *note: I have a bunch of these games backed up onto a hard drive. I currently have a 4-tier system of classifying DRM for $0 promo games via EG. "A-tier" includes titles like Into The Breach, playable directly from the file. "D-tier" includes titles lke GTA or Star Wars Squadrons - fun games, but they require 2 additonal launchers + heavy anticheat, which can strain system resources, and adds friction to starting/ending the game.
