Dude when that straight up happened to me I was enraged. And when calling PlayStations service line, and they told me there wasn’t anything they could do? I wanted to burn their head office down.
Just got mad again thinking about it. I'd used things like ShutUp10 and various scripts to remove so many of the MSFT telemetry and invasive programs on my install. Bought Halo on Steam and it can't function without all the BS backend stuff on Windows though, so back to Gabe it went.
Having to install steam at all was my issue with it back then. Game launchers/storefronts felt like a tacked on way to sell you on more bullshit and I hated it. Plus, with my Internet speed back then, it would've taken like 2 days to download the orange box haha.

Apparently multiplayer on linux works so I guess that's one thumbs up for them.

Ubisoft is one of the rarest where the online component is optional. Even in The Division 2

You still needed steam to make it work, at the time that really pissed me off lol
