I'm afraid they would just make yet another barely functioning launcher/storefront

I wasnt considering buying any more snoy games after this whole debacle, and I certainly won't if they make their own launcher. But unfortunately the average gamer just doesn't care :(

The thing is, we really dont need to care that AAA games are terminally fucked, there are shitloads of indies that come out every month. The "average gamer" shit doesnt show up in very many Indie games
