    I remember hearing things like the epic game store launcher rifling through your steam games and contact lists, etc. I just don’t want to install anything like that and running a VM just for that seems silly.

    Edit: article summarizing the claim and counterclaims.

    Sounds like a little bit of epic not being clear in what the software does and a little of the Internet running with a misunderstanding.

      With something like the heroic launcher you don’t even need to install the Epic games launcher. Just redeem the game through the website and play them through heroic.

      Nothing against you, but that sounds entirely made up, given how hard it is to link different services via credentials.

      Even Heroic Launcher and Playnite need you to log in before they can get that info.
