BioShock 2 Remastered
New "Quality of Life" update broke the game by adding an adware launcher from 2K that doesn't work. 2K is a terrible company.

Apparently this can be fixed by launching the game directly, as others have mentioned.

Game does not run because of DRM. Cracking the game allows it to run perfectly fine, performance is great.

Seems to work just fine, despite the custom anti-cheat. Experienced a few crashes, I am still not sure what the cause might be.
Instability:Occasionally

Might crash before joining an online match

Teardown
If you don't mind the missing shaders, it runs fine. If they can fix that, the game would be completely playable.
Graphics:Other
Shaders for fire and fire extinguisher are not working.
Windowing:Other
When switching to another workspace, the game becomes inaccessible. Could be WM related.
Instability:Frequently
My GPU crashes frequently when under heavy load (the famous gfx ring error). This game puts my GPU on very heavy load and triggers frequent crashes. I'm going to test if underclocking my GPU helps.
