Both Steam and Battle.net use CEF for their UI as well. And IMO they are on 2 ends of the "nice to use" from the implementation side (Steam being a sluggish hell and B.net being nice). Though then again B.net is only for Blizzard games, so they can also optimise for the limited set games.

You haven't? Steam has been a miserable experience for years. Great way to make a monster gaming rig replicate the eMachines 1998 experience.

I'm so sincerely glad that 28 years later I get to spot hate for eMachine in the wild. What an absolute piece of shit. I remember buying one and immediately returning it and to this day... you get it.
