I’d be lucky to last an hour by myself.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What exactly is a third party launcher?
41·5 days agoFrom a customer’s point of view everything is third party because they didn’t make shit.
That’s a perspective to have, but I’m telling you that’s not how most people are going to use the term. That’s why I made the analogy to retail stores. Back when buying a PC game at a store gave you the actual game, no one considered the store the first party. You’re just using them to buy what you want. The first party is what you actually purchase. The store my also make their own stuff. That’s extremely common these days, I’m talking places like Home Depot and Walmart, not Gamestop.
Moving to digital made have made the dynamics a bit different, but first and foremost, you’re still buying stuff from a store. And many of these stores also make their own stuff: Valve, Epic, EA, etc.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What exactly is a third party launcher?
41·5 days agoWell, I was hoping pointing out something inconsistent with what you said would help, but it did not. To be blunt about your original question, you’re wrong. The developer is always the first party. They may have their own launcher or use a third party launcher like Steam, Origin, Epic, etc. It’s nicer for the consumer when they use a third party launcher because then you can just launch right into the game.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What exactly is a third party launcher?
31·5 days agoIf you bought a game at a brick and mortar store but had to sign into an account from the developer after installing, is that now a third party launcher? After all, it has nothing to do with where you purchased your game.

It might for you. It does nothing for me.

5·6 days agoI’m not so sure. That would certainly be the case if you had access to it all at once, but that’s almost certainly not how it would work. Just like how we don’t have access to all of it’s that’s available on earth at once. It’ll be more like a new mine opening up.
This is assuming we don’t mine multiple asteroids at once or open a ton of new mines on a single asteroid. We may get there at some point but that won’t be how it starts. It’ll almost certainly start as a one off, if it gets there at all.
