Third-party-launchers Memes

You just wanted to play the game you PAID FOR on Steam, but noooo—apparently that's too much to ask! Instead, you're greeted with the delightful surprise of needing to install EA's launcher, create ANOTHER account, verify your email, update the launcher, restart your computer, sacrifice a goat to the gaming gods, and THEN maybe—just maybe—you can play. It's like buying a sandwich and being told you need to join a membership club, download an app, and solve a captcha before you can take a bite. The absolute AUDACITY of these nested launcher systems is truly a masterpiece of user frustration. Steam launches EA launcher, which probably needs to update, and you're sitting there screaming internally while your precious gaming time evaporates into the void.
