All you have to do to test this theory out is try a Grand Theft Auto game or just go for Halo. Classic bullshit signing up for shit, having to have a secondary launcher installed. blah blah blah, yadda fucking yadda. Take your friggin' pick. Rockstar, Microsoft, and now Blizzard. Shit's pretty much all bought up, doesn't mean the companies don't act like they always have with their brands.
Overwatch on Steam does not require b.net, so I do not see why it wouldn't be the case with their other titles.
I do agree with having to repurchase. I don't really play D4, so I might just wait for a big sale if I do go with a repurchase.
I regret paying once for this, you wanna do twice? :D
Probably not. I only got thru the first act, game just isn't for me.
Probably from playing it themself. Nowhere in the text you linked is stated that you need the client. Only a valid account and internet.
So no, Overwatch 2 on Steam doesn't require a secondary launcher. Source: me, I play it on Steam.
