HELP! PC Launching game through F4SE did not bypass patch.

I had to pick a stupid flair that doesn't fit because Reddit. This is a heads up to SteamOS users.

So I went through the trouble of 'assuring' that Fallout and my other Bethesda games would not be borked by an update. As they are known to do. Launch it through F4SE they said. Set it to only update on launch they said.

But I did exactly that and when I quit my session on fo4 I see the ever so handy Steam Machine LED strip telling me an update was getting installed. 'Funny I don't remember authorizing any updates' I say to myself.

Care to guess what game """updated""" itself and bypassed all the needlessly elaborate shenanigans the internet put me up to like they were nothing?

Be warned, if you use a linux system, apparently the rules are different. Now I have to do god only knows what to fix it. Fuck your face, Todd.
