Same thing + GOG
But I never launch Uplay without linked to Steam, only Ubisoft games purchased from Steam.

steam most of the time
uplay and origin when there's a game that needs one of them
battle.net and gog galaxy are installed and ready

apart from steam, I open up the others from time to time to let them update, even if I'm not planning to play

I use Steam regularly. A few month agon I bought Star Wars Battlefront (2015) and installed Origin. After a few hours I realized that the game didn't work as I have hoped and deinstalled the game and Origin. Then a few weeks ago I bought Diablo 3 and installed Battle.net because of it. I haven't even really started playing the game, so it's still installed.

So I guess the most fitting answer for my case would be something like "I only use a launcher while I want to play a certain game. After finishing, I usually uninstall it.".

Steam - main gaming launcher,
Windows Store - for Forza and Gear of Wars,
Battle.net,
Origin - Battlefield, Titanfall and Dragon's Age,
Uplay - most games trough steam + some freebies from store,
GOG and Epic game launcher - using those just to grab free games,
Twitch game launcher - used to add games, when i had Amazon Prime

I prefer having everything on Steam. I have some games on GOG that I got for free but I don't play them, I'll rather get them on Steam and play there.

That being said I do make an exception here and there for some online games. Currently I have Battle.net launcher so I can play Overwatch, but I have it set-up in a way that the launcher shuts itself down as soon as Overwatch launches.

Please don't forget that answers are pre-made (unless I'm wrong), and people may have simply voted for the answer most fitting for their situation.
Also, while humour is subjective, it seems present to me in this option.

indeed - everyone can vote in polls, and many users just pass by, randomly vote an answer and close the thread so I definitely would take the polls and such with humour and little else

If I want to play a game I'll use whatever launcher a game is native to.- so if a Steam game launches Uplay or Origin to play it, I'll buy/use the single client rather than use one to launch the other.

Generally once you're playing they're all pretty unobtrusive.

Your poll choices are a bit crude, none of those options apply to me.
I primarily use Steam, but I have Origin, Battle.net, Discord, Gog and Epic as well. I only ever run the respective launcher when I want to play a game on it, usually that's steam. I certainly don't mind there being multiple launchers though.

Steam needs competition. They've gotten lazy and greedy. I hope the other launchers survive and thrive. It can only improve the service we get, and the viability of game devs (smaller platform cut and all).

Still in use:

  • Steam - have to, most of games are on it
  • uPlay - have to (I like AC1, SC 1, Chaos Theory and Blacklist), also freebees
  • GOG Galaxy - only for installation, not during game-play

Do not use anymore:

  • Origin - stopped using it when I stopped playing BF3
  • Battle.net - needed during open beta of Hearthstone, stopped 2 months after release
  • Epic - needed for free Shadow Complex, uninstalled after finishing the game

I have all of them installed, I don't see the reason to get angry about using different launchers. If I want to play something I really don't care if it's somewhere else than steam.

I always use Steam pretty much all the time.
Some other stuff that I have installed but not used anymore are Twitch, Battle.net, Kartridge, Epic Launcher, and Garena (I'm blaming LoL).

The only non-steam game I bought after Steam became so popular was Battlefield 1 (and Battlefield V but I refunded it after 3 hours).

Besides Steam and Origin I tried:

  • Uplay (free The Crew and Uplay is started on steam-bought Ubisoft games anyways)
  • Epic launcher (free Shadow Complex)
  • Battle.net or Blizzard launcher or whatever it is called now (free Destiny 2)
  • GOG (free Shadow Warrior 2)

I'm not planning to spend any money on other stores besides Steam in the foreseeable future (I might buy a PS4 Pro though).
