Reason for this meme is that some ubisoft titles are shipped with a broken version of ubisoft connect launcher. Installing these games is only possible by running the installer for the launcher again via protontricks.

    those launchers i’m ok with, because they don’t ask me to log in, or take twelve minutes to start up, or try to promote a game, it’s literally just a pre launch menu. That’s chill.

      Wow I got downvoted.

      Yes I agree that launchers mentioned here are the online connected and required ones.

      The old school launchers you could bypass by just running the exe directly.
