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.

I had the same issue. Feels a bit shady to make people click Get Started anyway, but at least the launcher is skippable entirely.

I've just kinda gotten used to there not being an easy way around it. Hence my 'Going Straight to the Forums' reaction.
