This is far from the first time Paradox has done something like this.

I can't begin to express my dissapointment, although I should have expected it. It is why I am so upset to see the Paradox Store switching to the same. I despise the games as a service business model and the standard-bearer for it, Steam. I have been forced to use Steam for games before, including yours.

If I have to install another program to download a game, I would have and will just buy it on Steam or elsewhere since I already had the program installed, even though I hate it. When the Paradox Launcher was first released, and for some time afterwards, it was certainly communicated as an OPTIONAL way to download your games and manage patches. But I have never used the Paradox Launcher to play any of the games I have purchased from the Paradox store, and the only reason I ever purchased a game from Paradox store was for this very reason. So I really hope I am just being dumb and looking in the wrong place or have some kind of browser issue. And I believed Paradox when they said that. And although I had misgivings that the Paradox store even had an OPTIONAL DRM application, it was described as fully OPTIONAL and just for the convenience of customers who preferred to manage all their games and patches through a DRM application. The whole reason I had purchased CK3 and the other games that I purchased from the Paradox store was to have a direct download option.

Which if true, would leave me absolutely furious. I really hope that I just am looking in the wrong place or have some kind of browser issue (even though I have tried in two different browsers), but I suspect the reason is because the Paradox store removed the option to download the games directly and now forces you to use the Paradox launcher. I don't remember uninstalling it from my computer, but I must have since it isn't there any more. I am trying to re-downloads my copy of CK3 from the Paradox store, but when I view 'Games' I don't see any download option.
