It's a short post. Here it is.

Because you make me use your store client...

When I tick the box telling your unwanted launcher to remember my password, make it remember my chuffing password.

I have a fun time with the Rockstar Launcher for RDR2. It’s a 50/50 chance it will actually launch properly. The other half of the time, it tells me I don’t have access rights to the game.

Thanks, DRM!

The worst thing for me was the loading times just by starting the game.

It took me like 2 minutes to get into the game with my last save and 1.5 minutes are just waiting for the launcher, starting the game and all of the logos and things the game was made with. Even worse some Red dead online event being shown before you are even in the main menu even though I don't even want to play online.

Do you launch it from Steam or from the desktop app? I have done both but rarely does it fail. When it does I quit it and launch it again and it works. You might try blasting out the app preferences

Yeah same with me. Honestly worse than Epic
