I can agree to that. Kind of like how Bethesda’s games like Fallout and Oblivion have a menu that appears between Steam and the actual gameplay, with a play button and settings for the game.
I just hate having:
another motherfucking program running in the background taking resources (it may not be that much, but it’s still something. And when gaming, every resource counts!)
another damn password/account that I have to remember and has the potential to get me involved in yet another fun breach of my private information/data
another app I need to keep updated and wait for it to update, especially when I only use the thing for one game
another app that promises it’ll remember my password but doesn’t because I haven’t opened it in a week
a convenient way for me to get locked out. Not only do I have the potential of getting banned from Steam and losing my game there, I now have the ability to get banned from another platform and lose my game there too!! Or maybe I just have a different account email/verification that I forget to update and lose access that way
Let me just keep everything in one launcher and be that be that, is all I ask as a paying customer. Or be like GOG and let me never have to use the launcher if I don’t want to!

Honestly, it should really not be an issue to have a program running. Your computer has plenty of processes running all the time.
Steam is pretty resource-heavy, but a process shouldn’t need to be.
I’m grudgingly okay with steam launching the apps specific launcher, e. g. Warframe.
I draw the line at it launching the company’s own game platform. if I wanted the stupid b. net launcher I would fucking have it already, alright?!
