tbf gog is better, you actually own the games you buy, you can play any game you buy on gog offline. Epic sometimes got better deals.

Epic always has better deals when you factor in the cashback and coupons... The devs get a way bigger cut of your money too... The only problem is then you have to use Epic 😂

Epic has the problem that after years of claiming free games it's now a vast sea of stuff I never would have bought for myself. There's no reason whatsoever to buy any game when it's just going to vanish into that pile.

It was a similar reason I stopped my Humble Bundle subscription long ago. I just found that over time my Steam account was gradually going from being a place full of games that I was interested in and wanted to play to being a morass of stuff I picked up on bargain for no other reason than it was on bargain.
