I guess they're giving up on convincing people to download their launcher.

I wonder what the playercounts will look like? It'll only capture people launching the game through Steam, of course, but I figure they'll be decently high and score among the top concurrent players anyway.

If it's anything like Path of Exile, around 60% of their playerbase uses Steam over their standalone launcher.
