    I wish we could disable updates entirely for some games we choose. It’s extremely unfair for a company like Rockstar to replace a game like the original GTA games with the horrible “remastered” versions nobody wanted or forcing users to now install and use a secondary launcher that wasn’t there when they bought the game in the first place.

      And even in some more benign situations, such as when playing modded. Steam replacing a modded older version with a newer vanilla one is annoying.

        Absolutely correct on that one too. Again with Rockstar and breaking GTA V mods again. Despite the fact I never touch online multiplayer ever.

        Why the fuck does this game absolutely need to update which only ever just breaks my modding experience???

      It’s a nightmare for highly modded games as well because the updates break your entire setup, which is a lot of work and time required to actually fix. I’d love for an option to manually decide to update. Then people could wait until all their mods are also updated and for when they themselves have enough time & muse to go through the updating process.
