I had been using Heroic Launcher to manage my GOG library on Linux. It works well enough, but an official Linux native GOG client would certainly be welcome.

Why? It's already annoying to have to use steam and heroic. Why would anyone want a third app?

[-] addictedtosongtitles@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 months ago

I would imagine that you'd still be able to use Heroic for GOG

[-] daq@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 months ago

These are just wrappers for Proton. Why do we need one more? Just contribute those resources to Heroic. My dream is to not need steam either. I want to run games like we did before. Just launch an executable file.

You wouldn't be using Heroic in that case. Steam and GOG only.
