I love battlefield, but I don't play it because I'm not have another fucking launcher. Same with Ubisoft. I love farcry but I don't play it because of their stupid fucking launcher. GTA I wanna play more of but they have a stupid fucking launcher. If your game is on steam it shouldn't ship with another launcher. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] BrikoX@lemmy.zip [S] 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) Just use https://github.com/JosefNemec/Playnite permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] secret300@lemmy.sdf.org 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) But once I download and play an EA or Ubisoft game won't their launcher still be running in the background even with this?
