Reason for this meme is that some ubisoft titles are shipped with a broken version of ubisoft connect launcher. Installing these games is only possible by running the installer for the launcher again via protontricks.

Can't play one of my favorite MMOs on Linux because it now strictly requires the launcher that doesn't work.

The game works! Before transitioning to a new launcher and strict laucher-only startup, it was fine. But now...yeah.

No way to extract what the launcher does and use it as launch options in whatever youre using to launch the game?

Didn't find a way

If you're talking about runescape, I've been using the fan made Bolt Launcher and it works great

Nah, Revelation Online. Requires VK Games launcher to start. But I'll see if your method works somehow, thanks!
