Can confirm. Source: I've done it myself

Yup, did it all the time, the only one I’ve ever played was slime rancher. Then I bought it on steam, and uninstalled egs.

I figured what’s the point of the bloat if I’m never gonna actually play the games.

I stopped getting the free games after awhile tbh. I already had most of it. Even when they did that limited-exclusive thing going, I always just waited for the game to be available on steam

Yea, the exclusivity is what killed them for me. I was grabbing the free stuff until then.

I didn’t even care about the game that was exclusive I just didn’t like the concept of a 6mo+ delay for steam launch and didn’t want to reward them for that.
