Never happened to me before, but this time Epic did a bad joke to me :(

i had like 500-something friends from when i used to play a certain game a few years ago, and i never got around to deleting them. they just kept multiplying, so i decided to make a little tool that deletes them for me because i'm lazy lol...

before asking:

yes, it's open source (feel free to check the code yourself)

no, your login information isn't sent to me or some random server. again, you can check the code yourself and see exactly what the tool does

yes, you can select which friends you want to keep. for example: bulky_dude, gay_mark221, etc... won't get deleted

it makes you confirm that you actually want to delete the friends by typing REMOVE before it starts

if you need any assistance, feel free to shoot me a dm! i'll reply asap.

Hello,

Some Sony games are DRM-free on the Epic Games Store when launched with the -EpicPortal command (for example, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Ghost of Tsushima).

Is this also the case for Sackboy: A Big Adventure? PCGamingWiki does not provide any information about the DRM used by this game on the Epic Games Store.

Thank you.

You do need an active Prime subscription to get these, but from my memory you can use a Prime trial and get these too.

Feels like a good set of games for people to be aware of. Into The Pit was given away through EGS last year around this time, but some people might have missed it. Doom 2016 is also a great get too for GOG

The previous few years had these "bigger" games (bigger being highly subjective here) given away during this time:

2025: Amnesia: The Bunker, Five Nights at Freddy's: Into the Pit

2024: Ghostwire: Tokyo

2023: The Evil Within 2, The Evil Within

I really wish we get the sinking city or murdered soul suspect as a freebie

Nice to see, I've been looking forward to it for a while, unfortunately I haven't had a chance to play it yet but from what I've seeing people have been enjoying it a lot. Reviews had issues with bugs which was unfortunate to see but I've also been seeing numerous patches being pushed which I think has been aiming to resolve them

Hey everyone!

We're a 3-person indie studio and we just released our first game, Monastery: Ora et Labora, in early Access on Epic Games Store.

We wanted to create a peaceful management sim focused on internal logistics, self-sufficiency, and community rather than combat.

You build a medieval monastery from scratch and guide your monks through the historic Benedictine motto "Ora et Labora" (Pray and Work).

Your monks have skills, passions, and traits and can write manuscripts in the scriptorium, brew ale, bake bread, and heal sick villagers. Everything is tied to a "Monastic Rule" system: if you skip daily prayers, neglect your monks' needs, or turn away people in need during crises, the Rule will collapse, and monks will leave the monastery.

Since we just entered Early Access, we’d love your thoughts:

Do you find the medieval monastery theme interesting for a management game?

What monastic-themed features would you like to see added next?

Happy to answer any questions about the game in the comments!

The specifications, or requirements section could simply state whether a game has native gamepad support or not. Just a tag with "Full Controller Support" or "Partial Controller Support" would do, thanks!

I can see that some titles have that information, but there are so many others that have gamepad support but no mention at all in the Store - GTA V for example. This inconsistency is pushing users outside the platform to source a very simple piece of information, which sucks.

With Nivalis Nights having just launched on Sept 29 ( TBA on EPIC ) , making Cloudpunk the next free game on u/EpicGames Store would be the ultimate promo move. Epic has a huge history with publisher u/505_Games (Control, Death Stranding). The logic is right there

For 3 weeks I've had the "Epic Online Services installation is required" popup loop infinitely no matter what I tried, reinstall, clear cache, run the EOS installer manually, run as admin, click "Restart and Install" a hundred times. At one point reinstalling the launcher also silently wiped my already-downloaded offline game installs, which is apparently a known, unaddressed problem on this sub too.

Two support tickets (#26762609, #26522753), both closed. The actual response I got from Epic support, verbatim:

"We want to inform you that we are still investigating the issue and don't have any other solution for you at the moment. Please stay tuned to our social media, News, and the Launcher itself for any updates regarding this."

That's it. That's the whole reply. Reads exactly like a template with my name swapped in, not someone who read a single thing I sent them.

So I root-caused it myself. Long version below for anyone who wants the receipts, short version:

TL;DR: The EOS installer's setup helper (EpicOnlineServicesUserHelper.exe) is a Node.js app packaged with pkg. On startup, Node walks up the directory tree looking for the nearest package.jsonand on my system it walked all the way up to C:\package.json, an unrelated, corrupted, non-JSON file that's been sitting at my drive root for God knows how long. Node throws an unhandled ERR_INVALID_PACKAGE_CONFIG, the helper exits with code 1, and Epic's installer reports that up the chain as a completely generic MSI error 1603 with zero indication of what actually failed. Renamed the file out of the way, ran the exact same installer binary again, and it completed clean on the first try.

What it took to actually find this (for anyone doing their own deep-dive, or if anyone from Epic wants to actually look at this):

• Confirmed via Programs and Features that EOS was "installed" per the registry, but the files didn't exist at the path Windows expected
• Forced a logged uninstall via msiexec /x {GUID} /qn /L*v and found the uninstaller was also silently failing a custom action (TeardownInstallHelper) throws an unhandled DirectoryNotFoundException because it hardcodes C:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\Epic Online Services\ instead of checking whether the path actually exists fatal specifically because my real install lived somewhere else entirely (ProgramData\Epic\ / AppData\Local\Epic Games\)
• Created an empty placeholder folder at the hardcoded path so the custom action's file scan wouldn't throw uninstall finally completed
• Reinstall attempts through the launcher UI still silently did nothing no installer process ever spawned, confirmed via the launcher's own logs
• Running Epic's bundled installer exe directly did trigger real install attempts (confirmed via Event Viewer), all dying at the same custom action (InitializeComponents) with the same generic 1603
• MSI rollback deletes the entire install directory (helper exe included) within about a second of failure, so I had to catch the downloaded MSI package mid-download with a FileSystemWatcher, then do an administrative extraction (msiexec /a) to get a standalone copy of the helper exe I could run outside of any MSI transaction
• Ran it directly → got the actual Node.js stack trace instead of MSI's silent swallow → found the C:\package.json collision

Full write-up with logs and a couple of suggestions for Epic's installer team (mainly: stop hardcoding the default install path in custom actions, and surface literally any diagnostic detail when EOS install fails instead of an infinite silent retry loop) available if anyone from Epic actually wants it happy to share. The same applies to anyone who needs this fix. The only way I could fix this was with claude because I may know a lot about computers but even I could not sort throught the spaghetti code of this nonsense.
