Can't run it without their launcher last I tried. How? (I own the game since beta but I can't be bothered to deal with MS anymore)

via third party launchers. some of them can also handle modpacks, shaders, optifine, LAN multiplayer, etc:

Thanks. I only heard about MultiMC before and it apparently required MS login...

The version JSON file and JAR are both public. The JSON file describes the dependencies needed (public urls) and how to build the launch command.
