What put me off was them needing me to install a launcher and be online to waste my life playing that game for days. I’m the type to read all the fine print, and I found their ToS to be particularly awful surrounding that launcher.
I haven’t even given them a passing glance since way back then. Have they backed off of those artificial requirements these days or do they still not want my money?

Yup, the launcher is now optional and there’s an offline mode. My biggest annoyance was that, when I launched it the first time, it played an ad for the new game featuring the main voice actor.
I wouldn’t be playing it otherwise. They added a Dark Souls-esque invasion mode where you can jump into other people’s games as a zombie, and I HATE that mechanic.
