As the title says. I severely dislike having to make accounts for every game publisher that wants to send me advertisements, collect data or whatever.
It’s usually an instant dealbreaker for me at this point
Publishers needing their own launcher already puts them on shaky grounds with me.
But I really liked the original BG 1 & 2, so I’m willing to not just refund it immediately and actually ask around first for solutions.
From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it’s gaming you can probably discuss it here!

Thank you for the step-by-step. Steam can be a bit of a maze when you don’t fiddle with these things so often. :)
Edit: Apparently it’s " --skip-launcher" the extra dash matters XD
In future, drop by the PC Gaming Wiki first - it’s a great resource for exactly this kind of question.
Skip Larian launcher on startup
I wish all these games had skippable launchers, i refuse to touch any game that needs a launcher beyond Steam
The Launcher bit was a helpful add-in by a another kind user. I didn’t ask about that specifically, just mentioned that I dislike extra launchers.
My question was far more stupid than that. However, people came through for me regardless. And very fast at that. And for that, I am thankful.
