      WTF. I would fucking love barebones launcher. I was holding off using epic launcher because it was so laggy and slow when it first came out. I was using legendary before, but stopped using Epic altogether. Might just give it a try again.

      I’m starting to feel steam is getting bloated and plain annoying. I just want a launcher to launch a game and pair with my friends after a long day at work. I don’t want a crappy browser following me around in the background. I already have a browser if I need it. We use a different app for voice so could do away with all the other bs as well.

        If all you want is to launch a game, why keep the ‘launcher’ at all? Games used to just… start. No separate program needed.

      And, around launch, didn’t have payment processors in multiple countries meaning people were just fucked by exclusives
