i mean, i don’t like pirating. i get a shitton of “free” (okay, minimal cost tax-subsidized if you want to pedant. probably a dollar a month that I’m gladly paying anyways) games from the library. i buy maybe one game a year.
You didn’t even mention Epic’s giveaways or the games that come with a month of Amazon Prime. If you needed a gaming library in a hurry, there are great games given away for free or cheap on PC all the time.
I was going to buy my wife the latest Lara Croft trilogy for Christmas a few years ago and then epic gave it to me for free so I had to actually think about her gift
And as always, more expensive than a PC with free onoine gaming and similar power. You pay more upfront, and recoup within 18 months…

I mean libraries are awesome, but let’s not say pirating is the only option to get content on PC for cheap/free.

Fair, although you couldn’t pay me to use the Epic Games Store or make an amazon account lol
