I guess they’re giving up on convincing people to download their launcher.

    Not gonna play them if they include their launcher after game is started from Steam lol.

    EDIT: I am very happy to hear that everyone hates them. EA as well as Rockstar has shown that their launchers are shit. On Steam Deck EA games often fail to start at all due to EA launcher updates, and Rockstar launcher takes around 3-5 minutes to start a fucking game (which should start instantly).

      I mean, this sounds suspiciously like something a company that makes the device that also owns and runs the biggest digital game store might do intentionally.

        Except its not. Valve has gone out of their way to make sure other peoples’ games and launchers work, even if they’re not selling directly through Steam. Look at the Proton patch notes if you’re not just being a conspiratorial asshole and actually care about the facts.
