it's even older than 2017, it's 2012-2013 and yes, Valve never enforced it, Reddit post already reported as misleading by media some weeks ago but somehow some outlets still need to publish something when day is slow.
If the Steam version requires the Rockstar Launcher then I'm just gonna get it on the Rockstar Launcher, I don't wanna have two launchers opening everytime I start the game.
both EGS and Steam versions will certainly require the R* launcher anyway, so yeah
It is entirely up to you but if you want to see games from Rockstar continuing to be released on Steam then I would suggest this isn't the best thing for you to do. If enough people go "fuck it I might as well just get it from rockstars shite store" then Rockstar is going to start questioning why bother with a steam release.
However if you are wanting more practical "non-philosophical" reasons for getting the steam version over the social club version lets just say in my experience with GTA 5 the steam version has had far fewer problems with being downloaded and updated.
That I can confirm. I own GTA V on the social club (now rockstar launcher) and it wasn't a pleasant experience.
1.) Finding the client was a pain in the ass
2.) After a couple of years there was a patch for the client that needed to be downloaded and installed separately. Otherwise the game wouldn't install.
3.) Plenty of login problems at the beginning
4.) DL speed was often enough atrocious
That said, I don't expect the new launcher to be as bad as the social club thing. But even I prefer the steam version this time around. One month is nothing.
I just realised when looking at the Rockstar Launcher there's no friends list, I can't find one anywhere unless I'm being blind 
Also if you take a look at the Rockstar Store within the launcher at the bottom of the launcher it says services provided by Digital River. Nope, nope fucking nope. Steam it is.

They have that Rockstar Social Club thingy, I remember it from GTA V for playing online with friends. It's probably not yet integrated to the launcher, but it's there.I just realised when looking at the Rockstar Launcher there's no friends list, I can't find one anywhere unless I'm being blind

Yes.
I've checked GTA V and it's the same in there as in Steam. So there's hoping.
The special edition is slightly more expensive than day 1 GTA V on Steam but still cheaper than PS4 standard edition.
Need to check it yourself, but here is mine.
Not great, but reasonable. Still cheaper than Cyberpunk 2077. Oh how the mighty CDPR has fallen.
Regional pricing?
RDR2's price is discounted. Without discount it's more expensive than Cyberpunk.
Right, I missed that red number. Is it a limited offer or what? Why do they strike through it?
WHERE?!
Ok, i get it, you need that launcher.
2500 rubles for standard edition is pretty high, i wonder if they lower it to standard 1999 rubles when game hits steam..
Should be launch discount. Btw, I think you can upgrade to Ultimate edition for free if you purchase Special edition.
R* doing a good optimization? Unthinkable! That 150GBs though, rip my HDD.
I'm almost ready to throw 2,5k at it, depends on my work (still stuck with a shitty intern position).

Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC takes full advantage of the power of the PC to bring every corner of this massive, rich and detailed world to life from the windswept snowy peaks of the Grizzly Mountains to the dusty roads of Lemoyne; from the mud-spattered storefronts of Valentine to the cobbled streets of St Denis. New graphical and technical enhancements for deeper immersion include increased draw distances for better navigation; higher quality global illumination and ambient occlusion for improved day and night lighting; higher quality snow trails, improved reflections and deeper, higher resolution shadows at all distances; tessellated tree textures and improved grass and fur textures for added realism in every plant and animal.

Wouldn't be an issue if cost of living was less and we made near US wages or even had the same dollar power.
Good point. I recently tried downloading the massive 133 GB trail version of Gears 4 from the Windows store but couldn't even pause the download without it restarting. Atleast with Steam you know downloading works.
I got it at launch on PS4, it's fine, but I'm in no rush to buy it again for 40%+ more than I paid for it on console at launch. Deep sale years from now.
I love being out of the loop. Going in blind, I'm expecting cowboy gta. Dont tell me if it isn't lol
I can tell you if you think GTAO is buggy, wait til you try out RDO.
Man..have a lent PS4 and doing some online stuff (I think they going to treat it like if you playted previous GTAV and give you stuff) I can tell you every session bugs. Usually have to keep finding new sessions til my camp icon shows up as it doesn't show, can't set it up (option keeps flashing) and then random message about Cripps packing up lol.
I get many others but that is the most prevalent.

I would gladly trade the wage cushion and cost of living in exchange for the piece of mind of not having a white nationalist as president, and a government where all but 1/2 a branch is not complicit in it.

i hope so ... but i doubt it
Like I said on day 1 of this announcement, we'll eventually get a total conversion, even if it takes 10 years to make (I'll say about 5).

I just assumed it would be them printing money.
