MysterD: Since Shenmue 3 is now out on Steam and especially on GOG...

...Did the Epic version get updated yet and go DRM-FREE?
No sign of that. Launching the game from the executable still results in an infinite black screen.

Mudrunner runs without the client using the -EpicPortal trick.

Running it with no parameters it pops up a dialogue saying it can't authenticate then exits when you click OK.

Running with -EpicPortal it still pops up the dialogue but runs after you click OK.

Raji: An Ancient Epic looks to work without the launcher but Arise: A Simple Story does not.

YAAAAAY.... BOOOOOO. Really was hoping Arise would be. I'll still get it but pretty bummed to hear that.

Cities Skylines (base game) on Epic is drm-free as of writing this, could be played directly from .exe without launcher. Still need to proof whether it saves locally or not.

Does anyone here have Death Stranding that they could try? Denuvo was removed today, and I'm curious as to whether or not it's completely DRM-free on Epic now (it isn't on Steam).

I always love that. Sounds like performance of the game will finally improve for the people who paid for the game.

Does this work with GOG Galaxy? I mean, can I run the game from a client with epic uninstalled but the game installed from it?
