Any way to play without ubisoft launcher

[[N00B] Excell]

Please god tell me there's a way to trick your pc into thinking you have the ubisoft launcher open and returning a false positive to allow you to play both offline and without the launcher in general.
I physically cannot play at the moment due to the launcher just not working on my pc so please does anyone know if there's some way to 'crack' your own copy to play offline

I'm new to this game, I would also LOVE to know if there is a way to skip this TERRIBLE and ANNOYING launcher!

[FandangoChristmas]

the only way is to uninstall and keep ubislop off your pc

If you find the solution, please tell me.

Uplay should not be required for this game.
Considering the previous South Park game from Ubisoft in 2014 didn’t require Uplay, it doesn’t really make sense why its needed on this one.

Also, A Brand new South Park Bundle on Steam is available containing 3 South Park games, including this one. And this is the only one that requires Uplay while the other two don’t. The other two are Steam Deck Verified as a result

Ubisoft still showing they are deaf dumb and a waste of everyones time by continuing to push their ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ terrible uplay service. They have been told by their customer base for years now that it is unwanted and they know its absolutely unnecessary for much of their titles but like damn if they will learn to the benefit of themselves or anyone else.

Don't get me wrong, having rewards like costumes because you use uplay is a good idea but at the moment they're forcing uplay so the rewards are instead just... freebies and it just makes the fact you need uplay to play the game sting that much more

yeah, ive been waiting years to play this game. hopefully one day i'll be able to play without the launcher

[Hichem]

yeah but its illegal, they force you to pirate the game because they are anti consumer

[DosBoss]

There are fan made executables that get around this anti-consumer crap I believe.

Sailing the high seas is the only way I'm afraid. It's amazing Steam managed to solve the problem of Piracy by having the convenience of having all our games in one place. Now we're back to square one because everyone and their mother wants a launcher in our PC.

As stated in my original post if there's a way for me to pirate/crack my own copy I'd rather do that then play with the UPLAY launcher BS and call it a day. I only bought the game because it was on same and I wanted to support the devs
