Why would you need an account to play a single player, non cloud hosted game?
Shitty publisher mandated launchers.
They are getting rid of the launcher for Civ 6: https://www.pcgamer.com/games/strategy/2k-removes-its-pointless-launcher-from-civilization-6-while-also-announcing-that-civilization-7-players-will-never-have-to-suffer-launching-the-game-twice-for-no-reason/
Good, I wonder if they removed it for Xcom 2 yet. I haven't played that since they sideloaded that crap into my steam install.
Didn't they announce that there would not be a launcher? Also removed for Civ VI.
