    I’d rather pay to not use that godawful platform. Yes I know that’s stupid in certain ways but my hate for Tim Swiney is simply that strong

      There are ways to skip their launcher entirely amd use alternatives. Legendary and heroic launcher for example on Linux, there are probably some on windows as well.

      The vast majority of freebies are DRM free…

          Launchers are a form of DRM, get DRM free games and you won’t need a launcher.

            I’m still not referring to DRM. I’m saying Epic is a shitty platform that I hate enough to pay money to avoid. Get some reading comprehension. Further, you’re not even entirely correct.

              Man, if you hate him so much you should take the freebies that they pay money for and not buy anything from the platform.
