    Vote with your wallet then. Stop buying games from terrible companies. Oh right, you prefer to just rant and literally change nothing in how you live life.

      Games don’t typically state when they use game launchers. By the time you find out you’ve probably already bought the game. Ubisoft and EA are the only companies I can think of that have truly awful launchers that make me not buy games from them anymore.

          Paradox games have a launcher and it doesn’t bother me. Very minimalistic. I also haven’t bought anything on release since the Wii first came out. People always bitch about little things so it’s hard to know how bad something is until I experience it first hand. I personally won’t play anything by Ubisoft or EA because they’re bad companies that make bad games. I’d put up with their shitty launchers if they had something truly unique to put aside my dislike for them, but they haven’t yet. A bad launcher isn’t enough to make me not buy a game. It’s simply a large deterrent.

            Admittedly, the paradox launcher mostly exists so you can control which mods are turned on, which is a mostly legit use of a launcher.
