Sorry Hu

Wasn't ignoring. I'm no longer balls deep into price points, esp mid-range stuff.

He got a prebuilt today anyway. Ryzen 2700, 2060 super Zotac I believe, AsRock mobo, team group RAM, and a bronze rated 650W PSU, didn’t check brand but I’m sure it’s decent as everything else looks legit for 850. Came with borderlands, outerworld, modern warfare, mouse and keyboard

That PSU would be my first upgrade.

Not bad system though.

Honest question that I’m not going to get into deep. Do you really not play a game because Of the one second you are in the launcher to push “play?”

I know not for me but I'll let you know anyway.

Yes for me.

I only downloaded that goofy fort it's launcher because Control is amazing. But that launcher gave me all types of hell updating. It's garbage.

Now to Origin, yes I won't play a game if on the launcher if I could wait.

Only launchers I want on my PC are Steam (which isn't just a launcher) and Battle.net

The goofy RGB kids who are dumb can deal with the rest of that garbage.

Prefer steam

Dont mind, gog, origin, or uplay

Stay away from the rest of at all possible.


Bottom line if I want to play it bad enough I will use whatever, but have avoided games I wanted to play because of the launcher

Maybe I can explain over dinner why UH and I are correct?

Edt: You in Central? My sister married someone from Central. We are like brothers.

I sort of like UPlay.

But they also offer nearly all their titles on Steam.

I like spending money in game sometimes. uPlay makes that easy.

I guess non multiplayer is the difference. There are no saves in multiplayer other than level and purchased skins.

I simply go in and press play. That’s it.

I'm also more worried about just gaming.

A lot stuff going on in the background with those launchers.
