Rockstar releases its very own games launcher for Windows

simbin · Sep 17, 2019

Free as in, install another backdoor trojan on your PC. Seriously though, this is the ruined Android port, without OG music and garbage graphics. Find the OG version and research SilentPatchSA the way it's meant to be played!

Yay, yet another useless clutter launcher that didn't need to exist.

Yes, this is the best news I've seen all day!

Oh great..exactly what I've been waiting for. ANOTHER launcher...

PC gaming is turning into cable TV. Same with online video streaming, actually.

This much fragmentation is not a good idea.

What's the problem with this again?

Jiehfeng · Sep 17, 2019

Obligatory

I wonder if this comes with anti cheat measures since it launches the games.

Oh boy, another launcher! Just what I wanted for christmas!

I mean... It's nice if people want a legit copy of SA for free. But for people like me that already own SA... Eh... It's not worth it. But if people don't have it, go for it. Get the legit copy then use SA Downgrader for mod support and the ability to launch the game without the launcher. May be pointless if you have it pirated but at least you'll have it forever to re-download easily.

Yup! Doing this will have the exact same effect all these tv subscriptions are having: driving people back to piracy.

stop complaining about having to download more launchers. steam having competition is a good thing.
alternatively, complain about DRM, that's the entire reason launchers are needed. if you buy a game off GOG or itch, you can simply download the game off the website and run the executable directly. you could even add a link to it from any game launcher of your choice.
and if you're going to say that all launchers other than steam are malware, just remember that all you have is blind faith in steam because it's also proprietary.

Since no one cares about this, did you know Rockstar Games was about to work on a Kirby game but didn't

Now I have a game collection, AND a game Launcher collection
also new steam library beta is out y'all pretty good even though I have some qualms about it

Ah yes, competition from the handful of games Rockstar makes every 10 years...

Mythical · Sep 17, 2019

so every developer that wants DRM on PC games should have to comply with steam's terms?

IncredulousP · Sep 17, 2019

Awesome! Can't wait to never use this in my lifetime.

Well, hopefully this one wouldn't be doing exclusives.
