    Uhhhh, people install shit like Vanguard just so that they can keep having their mother insulted in the ingame chat.

    And many people put up with cascades of different lauchers (and accounts).

    So I am glad that there was some push back this time, but it’s not like there would be some sane baseline of PC players in that regard.

      Imagine doing this for all kinds of stuff like ads, over priced groceries, other games that required needless launchers.

      Just surprising how this works so often and every time there are still people trying to convince everyone to just move on.

        If people were capable of choosing long over short term value then the market might be working instead of the shitshow it is right now. IDGI either.

      It’s almost as if cheaters ruin hyper competitive games like Valorant. How dare they try to keep the game free from cheaters. The nerve!

        Honestly I’d rather have a cheater in my lobby than Riot Games deep into the sections of my PC they should never have accessed.

        With that said, I do not play Valorant for this reason (and also because it would require me to dualboot since Vanguard cannot be ported on Linux, lol)
