Reverting README.md to clarify optional steps #401
Conversation
Reverting the README back to its original state. In Step 2, the steps are optional. If you register (option 1), you can then proceed to step 3. OR you can choose to use the Project Manager option, which will register the engine and gems and create the build, allowing you to skip step 3. Signed-off-by: mcphedar <[email protected]>

This is still incorrect. I spent 30 minutes with Games from scratch solving this and he literally used 30 seconds in his video to clarify that to people that they must register the gems because it did not work with the manager and fails when you skip that step thinking it's optional.

It's very possible those gem registration issues - especially the PopcornFX ones will be resolved in dev with this PR o3de/o3de#15933 unfortunately, that won't help anyone using the 2305 installer |

It would be better to adjust the document than to revert it back into an incorrect state where people will become frustrated and lose faith in the project. |
