fucking civ 6. from what i heard, when 2k first put the launcher out it caused issues and the only way to avoid them was to bypass them.
issues seem to be fixed now but its still annoying, all it does is just advertise the dlc and stupid battle royale mode. thankfully you can use launch commands in steam to bypass it still
if you're smart and know where to look, you dont buy a sims game, or at least just the base version. i absolutely refuse to spend god knows how much money on the sims 4 just to get something close to a full release cause ea are greedy bastards and knowingly shipped a below bare bones game just to violently milk more money out of people.
hell with as popular as seasons was in 3 you'd think it would be made base game in 4. lol nope, why do that when you can make people pay for the same thing twice? and when i saw that toddlers werent base game, a feature in pretty much all sims games, i knew ea had dropped any pretense of subtlety
