Steam is adding a new default option for game updates

I wish we could disable updates entirely for some games we choose. It’s extremely unfair for a company like Rockstar to replace a game like the original GTA games with the horrible “remastered” versions nobody wanted or forcing users to now install and use a secondary launcher that wasn’t there when they bought the game in the first place.

And even in some more benign situations, such as when playing modded. Steam replacing a modded older version with a newer vanilla one is annoying.

Absolutely correct on that one too. Again with Rockstar and breaking GTA V mods again. Despite the fact I never touch online multiplayer ever.

Why the fuck does this game absolutely need to update which only ever just breaks my modding experience???
