I guess they’re giving up on convincing people to download their launcher.

    Battle.net launcher can literally be closed after the game is running. It even has a setting to automatically do so. Why would they pull this sort of bullshit, I have no idea

      They aren’t, they said that the Steam versions of Blizzard games will not require the Battle.net launcher at all.

      Each time battle net launcher opens,it displays a popup banner for cosmetics, warcraft stuff, overwatch stuff etc. They get free ads in your eyeballs.

      No way they will let it go. It will be steam -> battle.net -> game
