Sometimes i pirate games I’ve bought so I don’t have to deal with this nonsense. Like titanfall.
Honestly, I've been pirating games that I own on Steam for awhile now.
It's so fucking annoying to launch a game on Steam, only to have to sit through some update that didn't get triggered for some stupid reason.
I know it’s not steam but by god Minecraft Bedrock drives me mad. Everytime I try to play it needs to update. And if you don’t update you can’t play online…
(I know Java exists, but it doesn’t let me easily play with a switch player)
