First you need to find the path to your game. To do that you'll:

• Right click the game in your Steam Library and press "Properties"
  
  
• Click on the "Installed Files" tab on the left
  
• At the top of the tab there is a "Browse" button, click it.
  
  
• It will open file explorer with the game directory open.
  
• Click the address bar at the top to highlight the path and copy it.
  

• Next you will go to your Steam Library, right click the game and select "Properties"
  
• The window it opens on will contain a "Launch Options" box
  
• Into that box you will paste the before copied path
  
• Behind that path you will add \Bloodlines2.exe and put the whole thing in quotation marks.
  
• Then put a space there and add %command%

It should look something like this:


Keep in mind that the path could look different to mine depending on where you installed your game. As long as it leads to the Bloodline2.exe file, it'll work.

Delete this ♥♥♥♥.

If you've done everything correctly the game should now launch without installing or launching the Paradox Launcher.
