    I enjoyed its free Steam weekend so I claimed it from Epic! Thanks. ;)

    This is the what:


    * Chivalry 2
    https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/chivalry-2
    The sequel to the popular medieval online whacking
    simulator. It's got a very nice presentation and is an
    okay game, I suppose, although I never really engaged
    much with the combat; it just takes too long to kill
    people. The community is (or was) fairly cool (well,
    compared to some) but apparently the developers aren't
    doing all that much to fix a number of gameplay and
    technical issues (maybe the recently released 'Regicide'
    update fixes these; I don't fell particularly inclined
    to reinstall the game and find out). Basically, if you
    like playing online in drawn out melee combat, you'll
    enjoy this game too. But if that's not your preferred
    style, it's hard to recommend this one.


    That's this week's game. You have the usual seven days to claim it
    before it's gone, replaced by something new. Will you take it and make
    The Number happy? Or will you relish your manageable and compact
    video-game library uncluttered by unwanted games you'll never play?
    Make your choice!

    I think I remember playing on a free weekend a long time ago too, or
    maybe that was the original. I picked it up, chances I'll play it are
    low, but above 1%.

    Same. I think I played both.
