I will state clearly, right here, I am against Overwolf's Corporate Policies and its distribution policies. Sorry Slowpoke if you are reading this but I must make a stand here, Overwolf is not getting anywhere near my system and I am sorry that you are withdrawing support for other launchers. On the other hand, if the this recent decision to withdraw third-party launcher support has been made by the FTB Team themselves and that they have decided to distribute their Modpacks EXCLUSIVELY through the Overwolf platform then this is a very disappointing turn of events. If this decision has been made by the Overwolf Corporation and they are forcing the FTB Team's hand in this the I would say that surely it is down to the FTB Team itself to decide how to distribute the Modpacks, and it is, to some degree, a free decision on behalf of the players of those Modpacks to choose which launcher they will use to download and play those packs which are being kindly distributed by the FTB Team. after all Overwolf do not own the Modpacks themselves.yet. It has been fun and I will miss playing them but at the end of the day I refuse to be dictated to by the corporate overlords that are embodied by Overwolf and who are insistently pressing their demands onto the FTB Team who are subsequently, apparently, bowing to those demands, maybe for reasons laid down in the agreement between the FTB Team and Overwolf. I am sorry to say that if the only way to launch the FTB Modpacks is through the App which FORCES the end user to install Overwolf, then my days of playing the FTB Modpacks are over and I will close the door on the whole affair. NOT a good move!īackpedalling on a promise made by the FTB team that there would be full support for other launch platforms such as the AT Launcher and MultiMC, this decision goes against, and indeed breaks a promise that was made in good faith to all of the FTB community. If this is a "final" decision by Slowpoke then my respect for him just derailed right off the track. I flatly refuse to have Overwolf anywhere near ANY of my PC systems, it is invasive and obnoxious and it covertly hoovers up your data for "statistical purposes", not to mention the ad-spamming which in itself is just another cover for statistical analysis using an analytical algorithm that runs under each ad. And once again we are being hosed by corporate policy and are forced to comply with a rule made by a decision that we were not even consulted on. ![]()
