2K Launcher is Gone!

I thought this topic was created already here, but I do not see it. I do see one in the game hub for Civ 7. Any way, the 2K launcher has been removed from 6. If you have the workaround to remove it, you need to undo that workaround.

You don't need to undo the bypass, it's just pointless to have now.

That is what I mean. Why have it now since they removed the launcher. Also I think it might be causing some issues for some players starting the game.

To the people having trying starting the game: did you have the workaround that removed the launcher? If yes, remove that workaround.

Great news for me. Since the launcher was put into place, I couldn't launch the game. Now I finally can launch - and play - the game !

Wow, you haven't been able to play since like 2018? The bypass didn't work for you? Holy crap, that would be so aggravating!

I haven't even seen the launcher since about a month after they added it into the game. So while I love that they removed it, the launcher has never actually affected me since I found out about that bypass. And honestly as far as launchers go it wasn't the worse. Hell, it wasn't even the worst 4x launcher. I remember the launcher for AoW3 being much worse. But then again, maybe that 2K one got worse over the years since I last saw it, so I'm probably not the one to ask about that, haha.
