PC Games: "Bargain Alerts" - [NO CHAT]

Can't play online with it yet though

I downloaded GTA5 again, got to about 80G and the download speed went to 0, however, it actually kept downloading (the amount downloaded kept increasing even if the download speed read 0)

Was able to play away, however this evening I am running into "GTA timed out authenticating with Epic Online Services". Judging from the forums everyone else is running into this too. People can't connect but the ones in game are fine.

TL;DR the servers are overloaded, it takes a while but keep trying.

Sadly yes. Seems the way things are now.

You need the server to play single player?

Fairly sure Rockstar retroactively updated it sometime last year to always require their social rubbish.

Was fairly peeved as I'd bought it about a month earlier and wouldn't have if I'd known that. Although by that stage I'd already finished the campaign once, and was fed up of the constant issues with online, so just uninstalled it to get the space back.

looks like that rumour list I posted is right

Civilization VI

Aegis Defenders is free on Steam until 6pm or so.

Bit weird - got a mail from Humble Bundle during the week touting a bundle and also this for free.
Far as I could tell I checked the site within a couple of hours of the offer going live and Humble show no sign of ever having sold the game.
Anyway, it's definitely on Steam now

This week's game from the Epic VAULT (geddit?) is Borderlands: The Handsome Collection

Includes Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and I think all DLC for both

Overcooked free on Epic.

Bit underwhelming considering it was rumoured to be Ark, and they've already done this one anyway.

Looks like it may be released next week

Given the situation in the US, and the rest of the world right now, we will be rescheduling the ARK in-game celebration until Thursday, June 11. We understand that our community has much anticipated the ARK in-game party and the launch of Crystal Isles, and we're looking forward to sharing all we have prepared for you next week. We felt it would be inappropriate to celebrate milestones during the present time as there are bigger things afoot, and that outweighs any plans we otherwise had. We believe now is the time to be respectful and hear the voices of others.

Was it? I don't have it in my account and I've added all that interest me. Maybe I missed it

Weird, I have it and I know I definitely didn't buy it as it's of no interest.
But I don't see any receipt mail from Epic about it so not sure when I got it.

Vague idea it was around Christmas

1429 "items" now.

itch.io doing a crazy bundle for Racial Justice and Equality

Minimum $5 donation gets 743 games (and seems a lot more to come)
https://itch.io/b/520/bundle-for-racial-justice-and-equality

Can't say I know a lot but ones I do recognise include Minit, Night in the Woods and Oxenfree

Paypal could not process the payment. Anyone else getting this? I see complaints in some of the comments. There's nothing wrong with either of my cards and I use that account regularly for all sorts. Really like the look of that digital design puzzle game.

Sorry if this counts as chat, just looking to see if anyone has a workaround.

ARK: Survival Evolved it is on the EGS for free this week
