can't a studio just leave a product "abandoned" on steam store?

I mean, GTA 4 still has "games for windows live" enabled and steam don't care.
they removed gfwl years ago when they changed it to the "complete edition" and removed multiplayer, you need the rockstar launcher now

More games I doubt I'll ever play. :P

How many launchers do I have an account with already...

Steam
Epic
IndieGala
GOG
Amazon
Ubisoft Connect
EA

Rockstar Launcher was offering GTA San Andreas for free for a limited time before, but god damn, that's too many launchers as it is. :-/

What will happen in the future with all these launchers? They'll probably be around though it's annoying to have games split around so many services.

I've been trying to avoid the Rockstar Launcher and if I eventually play GTA IV on PC I'll still need it. lol

The studio went under and they were no longer able to maintain and update the game on steam. At least thats what the dev says.
still doesn't see the reason why they have to remove it from steam. they could still put it there for people to buy which means more profit, unless there's some kind of fees i don't aware of for them to sell it.

Just claimed Rayman Raving Rabbids via the Ubisoft PC launcher although I probably will never play that.

The GBA and DS versions look so much better and actually what you'd expect from a Rayman game! :)

The console versions all play the same including the 360 one, a bunch of mini-games clumped together.. I assume the pc version is the same?
Btw, i completed the game many times on the ps2, ah..

Rayman 4 got canceled for this crappy mini games' release. :(

The prototype of Rayman 4 is now playable on PC, but it's obviously very incomplete, buggy, and glitchy. Would be cool if someone made a custom version of Rayman 4 Protype where it'd only include playable stages, polished, and have fun playing it.

I can not download it. For me it does not appear to add to library. :(

And it's not in the library.
I claimed it and then when I pressed that button, it took me to my profile to download the game.

https://www.indiegala.com/library/bundle/2

That icon indicates a download should begin almost immediately (unless you're using a download manager), yet that's not how it works.

    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
