Amazon requires Prime, which isn't free.
Don't make me tap the sign!
Yeah, once. That's not free, that's just promo to lure you into subbing. That's why they make it so obnoxious to offer it on every page and make it look like that'd be the normal way to proceed forward on a checkout.
Yes, companies do often offer freebies to lure you in, up to you how many hoops you want to jump through to get them. Anyway a lot of people already have access to prime, and if you don't want to see these posts you can just filter out any with
[Prime
in the title.I never met anyone who uses Prime, but whatever. I also can't filter anything, but you basically break your own community rule for game giveaways "at no cost". It's like saying you can watch TV shows on Amazon / Netflix / Whatever for free, even though you have to pay monthly for it.
I find it hard to believe you've never met anyone who uses prime, sure it's not the kind of thing you'd ever talk about but it's a very widely used service, hence all the people who make use of the posts here. It's fine to hate Amazon, I wouldn't pay for prime if I couldn't get it for free through a family share thing, but I've told you how you can get the games for free so that's why they're posted here.
I appreciate you posting them here and I do grab them.
Well, I'm not from the US. I don't see a point in Prime. And paying for it does not make me get games for free, I'm paying for them through a subscription service. You may as well just post Battlepass shit and whatnot here.
I'm just posting games I find in the hope that it brings some people some joy. Nobody's making you play them and I've told you how to hide them if you don't want to see them. No need to be rude about it.
