That I believe is the game using steam’s drm. But if you have the right tools you can force games to do exactly what you said.
No, Lutris, Faugus Launcher, Bottles, Heroic all use their own custom “boot the launcher then the game” commands, and no, they don’t let you change that. This is not even considering steam games in the equation.
I don’t know what other tools than “make my own bash script” are available for easy non-steam library management, but if you know one that isn’t vibe-coded garbage, I would be happy to try it!
