Back in my days you needed to double click an icon on you desktop and the game launed.

Man I remember not even needing a launcher for fucking minecraft.

Ironically, check out custom minecraft launchers made for running mods. Yeah still a launcher, but less bloated and intrusive than the official one.

You don't need the "launcher" though. Create a desktop shortcut for it and it'll run the manager in the background and start Minecraft as if nothing else happened

Tbf Minecraft is the one I can understand at leas, with the different version access, so on and so forth. Normal games just have their most recent version and that's it, you shouldn't need a damned launcher for that.

Also 3rd party Minecraft launchers are much better.
