I already block ads and advertisements, so the game will just be completely off my radar for another six months until I see friends start playing it. Eh. It's far too much effort to try a new platform after the dumpsterfires of Origin and Uplay to play 1-3 games.
The only game I'd actually install a new launcher for would be a new Half Life Game.
I had a friend who really got into satisfactory. And since we were all a factorio group, it seems like our kind of crazy. We are excited for it. When it came out as an epic exclusive, that one friend went for it. And tried to get us all to join him. We're like okay we'll join you soon as it comes out on steam. Some converted some didn't.
But over time I've had my personal friends tell me, yeah I see why you didn't make that choice, earlier I thought you were just being stubborn but now I totally understand it.
Totally understand what exactly?
That the game wasn't worth playing. Lol?
That the game was still in early access, had bugs, and didn't have many features or ways to progress.
After a year of development, tho, it's a different kind of story.
