PCfags really think EGS is the real problem

of course bethesda's launcher takes up the most memory.

>Launchers are aids regardless
True
>Why hasn't Yea Forums switched to superior consoles?
Because pirated games don't have this problem.

Also what do Discord and Twitch have to do with it?

>Launchers are aids regardless, they're all bloated botnets.
DUDE BOTNET LMAO XD
You dont even know what that means

>You can't even use physical copies of games without a launcher.
You can

>Why hasn't Yea Forums switched to superior consoles?
You have to be an absolute retard to own a console to begin with, let alone think its a superior platform for anything

0/10 terrible bait

They were asked about this years ago and they said there would always be a way to download your games in a worst case scenario where Steam dies, but the outage last week or so has a few people worried again

Close programs when you are done with them, or get moar RAM. 2.52GB is nothing when you got 32.
Or don't use launchers at all if it bothers you that much.

I rather use different launchers than consoles desu. You lose all games either way so...

I've said it before and I'll say it again: The problem you're describing can be entirely fixed by not having shit taste in games.

So? Why the hell don't have 16 gb ram these days? If you can't keep up with modernizing your rig, get a new hobby, like smashing rocks or peeing on trees or something, animal

Sure, but there's miners specifically activating after inactivity, and shutting down either at spesific times like just before mornings or when it registers activity. Hell there's one ruskie miner that runs and stops based on movement detected by webcams or sounds by microphone.

this

this is why i pirate

How the FUCK does the bethesda launcher have 3 times the ram usage for the ONE (1) game on it?

Windows Store really not that bad all things considered. Minimal bloat since it's bundled with the OS and you have to have it anyways. If they had sales, it could have been a contender.

Based.

In what scenario would you even have all of them open at once outside of making an epic screenshot?

The Bethesda Launcher also refused to let you uninstall a game you had the beta of without purchasing the full game.

The launcher, like the company, is an absolute clusterfuck.

Fpbp. I just close Uplay and origin anytime I'm not using it. This is like showing a task manager with literally e every installed program going at one time and being like "lmao PC fags btfo!!!"

/u/ has usernames now?

1) 2.5 GB is fucking nothing you dumb console peasant
2) No one has all of the different launchers anyway. You don't really even need any others than Steam.

Enjoy your more expensive console games limited to a pathetic 1080p and 30fps due to inferior hardware.

You do know that you do NOT need to open all launchers together, right?

Besides, most of the memory usage is from the webview/browser for each launcher, which 90% of the time is just a repackaged Chromium.

That is absolutely false.

Based Kuro poster

this, unironically. I was having an existential crisis the other day when I realised this.

I only use one service, steam. It's good enough and it gets muh vidya downloaded fine and the choice for retro games and new titles are there so I don't feel the need to use much else, although GOG's non launcher thingy sounds based. Am I retarded anons?

>using anything other than steam, battlenet and gog
You deserve it

It's weird how i'm used to business trying tempt me into becoming a costumer but epic basically goes. "Nah bitch. I don't give a fuck about your experience. We're going to pay publishers tons of money for exclusiity so you HAVE to come to our shitty store. Filfthy paypig."

It's so weird to have a store show open contempt for it's costumers but still make a lot of money

Literally every "scene" loads a bitcoin miner into their pirated games though.
At least the bitcoin miner takes up less memory than the launchers

This minus bnet is the god combo

mine's only 24MB :^)

use private trackers and stop downloading off public trackers

>no itch.io

>electron apps
fuck you, discord

Steam for 99% of shit.
GOG Galaxy for retro shit not on Steam.
Itch.io for indie shit not on Steam.
Battlenet for Blizzard shit.
Uplay for Ubisoft shit.
Origin for EA shit (mainly just Battlefield, Titanfall 2, and The Sims 4).
Windows 10 Store for Xbone ports not on Steam (mainly just Forza, Halo 5, Halo Wars 2, and the Phantom Dust remaster)
Bethesda launcher is pointless because Fallout 76 bombed, so Bethesda backpedaled and is now launching their new shit on Steam again.
Epic launcher is pointless because all the "exclusives" are just timed exclusive, and I don't give a shit about Fortnite.

>PCfags really think EGS is the real problem
Launchers aren't even an issue. Most people have at least 8gb of RAM and background processes that blow everything in that list way out of the water when it comes to system usage. Hell, my browser alone has 2 tabs open and uses nearly a gig.

At any given time, I've got Steam, Uplay, Origin and Battle.net running in the background. The launchers themselves are a non issue. Epic is just an evil company and while I already the Epic launcher for UE4 because I have to, I'm never spending a dime with them. They are indeed a real problem.

You don't need gog open to launch the exes you retard

>boot up PC with no launchers in autostart

You also do not even need the GOG Launcher. Its comletely optional.

who actually runs all this shit at the same time and why

I usually have twitch and steam open. Free games so far on Epic are either ones I owned already or ones I don't care about.

Launchers themselves arent a huge problem, but it's quickly becoming apparent that if they don't stop they'll just keep going and never stop
The problem is that they're making the experience WORSE little piece by piece without giving us anything in return, they're playing the long game and the casual market is eating it up because they don't have the foresight to realise that they're being given a worse service

Based Epic for coming out and making it so obvious how shitty things can really be, hopefully through Epic's blunders the dumb consumers can realise what's going on

Nice lies, faggoston

My Steam uses 500MB of RAM alone.

>my browser alone has 2 tabs open and uses nearly a gig
Stop using IE retard.

Twitch has had it for a while, it's not an actual game store either, it's a mod platform for games like minecraft and stardew valley and hosts the games you get for free from twitch prime.

part of the reason why epic games store offering Oxenfree for free was retarded to me, since it was free on twitch launcher like a month or two beforehand.

First of all, it's called Edge now, computerlet. IE has not existed for some time. Second that's just the nature of Chrome. It's more of a system hog but it also has better performance.

Firefox works fine most of the time but sometimes you really feel the "Free browser" part of it.

>the devs would be a lot better off
But the consumer gets no benefit because none of the developers are passing the savings to them, and lack of third party keys essentially makes the games more expensive, relying only on sales on the store itself as opposed to the third party sites who host many sales.

Discord has a game store
Twitch hosts mods and games they give with twitch prime

>Why hasn't Yea Forums switched to superior consoles?
Then the launcher takes up 100%

I wish firefox would get rid of cached content for web pages you close. From when you open images or view anything, its stored until firefox closes and it causes so much ram usage.

What's on the discord store?
I thought it was a chat application

why the fuck would you leave a launcher running when you aren't playing the game you use it for
