    This isn’t surprising to me, with so many free to play games and the fact that this survey included mobile gamers. Still an interesting stat!

      Not even necessarily F2P. Depending on what you have access to, Epic, GOG, Prime/Amazon Games, Steam, Itch, and a few others all release freebies nearly every week. Some of them are even AAA titles.

      If you’re not supremely picky about what you play, you can get hundreds of free games over time.

        Since I started !freegames@feddit.uk I’ve not bought a single game but my backlog is growing way faster than I can play through it. Not a bad first-world problem to have, really!

          And I very much appreciate you setting it up! I have even posted a few, though people often post them before I do.
