As the title says. I severely dislike having to make accounts for every game publisher that wants to send me advertisements, collect data or whatever.

It's usually an instant dealbreaker for me at this point

Publishers needing their own launcher already puts them on shaky grounds with me.

But I really liked the original BG 1 & 2, so I'm willing to not just refund it immediately and actually ask around first for solutions.

Also it's tied to their cross save functionality.

Cross save would be great if we didn't have to pay again to play on different platforms. Until then, cross-save is a "feature" that looks good on paper but it effectively worthless in practice.

Yeah. It was legit useful for Divinity OS2, as the switch legit couldn't handle a game where you did everything, picked up PC version from a steam sale and finished the save.
