>plenty of games can run independently of the launcher
>in fact, the last game I ran has the exact same files as GOG, including the GOG icons
What you don't understand is that gamers want games. Valve sells gamers games. Gamers game on Steam because Steam has games.
GOG has no games.
Epic is literally the same thing as Steam with fewer features and a worse launcher (OPEN SORES!!!!!!!!!!! Nobody cares).

TL;DR Gamers want games. You want to fight a war against Valve. You've shown no indication you've ever played a video game in your life, but you're really invested in taking Valve down for insane schizo reasons that you change depending on how many field goals have been kicked on your shitty special (and I mean SPECIAL) teams unit.
