Launchers are a solution to DRM, not the solution. The way today's modern market is, it's understandable that some gamers have forgotten that there used to be games you bought directly from the publisher's website. DRM was done by asking you to sign into your account before launching the game, a lot of games still make you do this today. There's also the tried and true method of phoning home with a product key for DRM as well. There's no shortage of ways to be independent, very few companies are interested in doing so because Steam is convenient.

Yeah but like, launcher isn't a market. Game Store is the market they're in. I'll happily buy a game from a different store if thats the only place it's offered or even if it's just cheaper there. The annoyance is when they want to be Steam. I don't want to be forced to download another launcher to play a game. If you want what Steam has, create a launcher that offers better services than Steam.
But like, why does it have to be Google? (Or this extension specifically?)
If you're super attached to the google search results then try startpage. If you're willing to branch out a bit try Duckduckgo, it's based on Bing instead and lately seems like more folks prefer Bing's engine to Google's.
And as others have mentioned you could use any old useragent switcher to pretend to be Chrome
It's a bug, especially around alters of lilith. Sometimes enemies just spawn in the terrain for some unknown reason. And because D4 is truly 3D, them being clipped into the floor prevents them from moving, or from being pathed to. Additionally you can't attack them if your line of sight is broken from them. Sometimes you can get them to respawn and fix themselves, but unless you absolutely need to kill them for some reason it's faster to just leave.
This one's short and sweet. At level 4 PCs get the Score Improvement AND to pick a Feat. This has propagated throughout my whole group, but the original DM that started it reasoned "I think a lot of Feats are really cool, but a lot of people aren't comfortable passing on their first Score Improvement to pick up something situational. So they get a freebie, because I want to see what uses they come up with.
Yeah "Costs more than you think" no I think it costs about what I expected for a lossless player. DACs are a feature these days.
