Here’s some on my list:
-
Red Dead Redemption 2 - I do not want to deal with the Rockstar Games launcher.
-
Tom Clancy’s Breakpoint - The game’s add-on packs feel like Ubisoft is trying to nickel and dime gamers who would instinctively buy the GOTY equivalent of a title. I do not want to deal with a Ubisoft launcher or account.
-
Zombi - According to the Steam reviews it required a Uplay login to validate the game before you play and that version of the Ubisoft service no longer exists. This seems to have been rectified but I still don’t trust it and don’t want to go through the refund process if it hasn’t.
-
Skyrim VR - I’ve already bought too many copies of Skyrim.
A bit of a “this is why I pirate” thread but more targeted at individual games.
Other than GOG is there even any other storefronts that don’t give you a steam key that aren’t American?
There’s Epic or you can buy directly from the publishers store front (e.g. EA), but GoG is the only one not forcing you to use a shitty launcher.ignore that, i missed the “not American” requirement in your post.I think GOG is probably just the best way to go at this point.
