"Even if I don't ever buy anything" is why I doubt it's going to work out. Epic is publicly right now saying that it's great at acquiring users. Yeah, I'll bet it is. People love free stuff. Is it great at turning those users into paying customers? Even at wholesale rates, I've gotten hundreds of games for free from Epic, which means they spent thousands of dollars on me, and I can't foresee an instance where I'll ever give them a cent back.
