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

Not gonna play them if they include their launcher after game is started from Steam lol.

EDIT: I am very happy to hear that everyone hates them. EA as well as Rockstar has shown that their launchers are shit. On Steam Deck EA games often fail to start at all due to EA launcher updates, and Rockstar launcher takes around 3-5 minutes to start a fucking game (which should start instantly).

Mike Ybarra confirmed on the bird site that these games will launch directly through Steam, no bundled launcher nonsense.

confirmed

I've heard OW2 has dropped PVE while it was confirmed that PVE will exist lol.

It was not just "confirmed" - that was whole point of OW2.
