I didn’t know Origin was still a thing. I’m still sore they bought Origin (Ultima, Wing Commander) and turned it into… a download service.

Point being is to not buy a game with launchers…

It is called discipline, nobody gonna die by forgoing a game engaging in anti consumer behaviour

Yes, Steam good (or rather, not bad, so far) but their launcher could… need some improvements. And the workshop a download button.
