Funny how Steam having to launch EA app to start a game = people complaining about Steam launching a launcher, but Lutris launching EA app to launch a game =/= a launcher launching a launcher for some reason...
After installing the game on Lutris or Heroic I can just add it to Steam and then launch the game directly from steam. In terms of UX I just need to press the play button, wait a little bit and then see the game main menu. Sometimes you see other launchers but there's a lot of games that have their own launcher before launching the game, Fallout 4? Nixxes ported games?
I don't know what anything else that you want. Even on Windows same shit still happens.
That's what I'm saying, and on Windows people hate it.
I also had a lot of trouble getting the EA app to work properly with Lutris so it's not as if it was the super user friendly solution Linux users want to pretend it is.
