Why Epic Games give free games?

In 2020, Epic Games began to actively distribute previously paid games (the number included GTA 5, Watch Dogs, Civilization 6 and several more large projects).

For example, today, May 28, Epic Games gives free ..

Now, after I showed how to get https://sportsbettingmedia.co.uk/latest-news/live-betting-esports-counter-strike-2 a new game, let’s talk about why these same games give out? What is the benefit of this from this to developers and publishers?

Recently many, and even AAA give projects for just like that. Especially recently, it likes to do it epic games.

Many gamers are wondering why game publishers give games for free? Obviously, this is not done from a good soul, which means there must be some benefit. And this benefit is. The same Epic Games does this, obviously, to promote his store. From the part of publishers, this is no less profitable, since the new players who have received the game for free are actively investing in microtransactions that bring most money after many years that have passed from the release.

I will give a simple example. December 7, 2018, the KS GO, sold earlier at $ 15, has become completely free. Here is the online dependence schedule in the CS GOU from the year.

We see that just after December 2018 (when the COP became free), online jumped again and now beats all the records (recently there was more than a million people in the Constitutional Court at the same time).

According to GTA online, I did not find such statistics (since it spreads at once at several venues), but I’m sure that there was a very strongly jumping there after free distribution (this can be judged by the fall of the Rockstar servers)

Another thing is whether the players who have now bought a free game are happy to?

After each distribution of a previously paid game, news headings are full of reports that gamers who bought this game earlier are unhappy.

And you know, these gamers can be understood well. If you monitor, it is noticeable that often after becoming a game of free it becomes a real rabble for cheaters and inadequate.

I myself saw this, periodically I play the COP, sometimes on the price of account, sometimes on non prime. And I can say that on the prime accounts of the community is much better than on Non Prime, where there are absolutely Chiters and some strange Timmates in every skating rink.

In GTA 5, in my opinion, the situation is even worse. There is now no distribution of players who paid for this game, and players who received it for free. And I think that everyone will agree that a person who gave his money a greater report on what he does at all.

At the moment, in GTA online, the situation is such that some kind of pumping of the character is absolutely uninteresting. Why play for a long time on various missions, if this money can simply give out a random cheater even without your demand?

And after such a community who came due to free distributions, the players are adequate, who paid for the game, must suffer and not have it possible to play normally, at their own pleasure.

The paradox of this situation is that most gamers who have received the game for free are adequate. But only as it always happens, you always notice the worst most, because of which the opinion of all is being spoiled.
