    I give some launchers some crap. Like @OriginInsider? It is pretty bad. Like... I'll play Apex on Steam so I don't have to use it bad. However, @Ubisoft has got to have WORST launcher. Not sure why I expected Ubisoft Connect revamp to actually fix anything from Uplay.

    @FormerlyPhoenix @OriginInsider No, the game would just be able to use over 4GB RAM. Memory leaks, bugs and routing issues (the main cause of lag) would still remain. Not to mention other possible issues (Mac 64-bit launch wasn’t really smooth).
