I’ve got a game that I purchased on Steam during a sale that sat in my backlog for a while before I went to install it. But checked the reviews again first and saw complaints about the EA launcher and realized “oh no shit, it’s a star wars game, of course that’s EA” and installed a different game instead.
I was then just tempted by a massive sale on mass effect complete edition (actual name might be wrong, but one that includes most or all of the games in one package). Like it is pretty much at the automatic buy level, but again looked at reviews and saw complaints about the EA launcher and moved on instead.
Though now I’m wondering if there’s a workaround or something to de-EA their games.

Pirate them
The games aren’t even that good that it’s worth it tho. They are like 7/10s at best and at worst… yikes.
