Step 1: Redeem games through my web browser.

That's it, there is no step 2.

So you don't actually play the games? You just redeem them?

Not the other guy but I download them through heroic, install a crack, repack, store on my NAS. That is, if the game is one I'd like to keep for the future.

So yeah some of us are absolutely taking those free games AS free games without downloading their software. A couple of mine have been "loaned" to friends and family, even.
