    It’s an interesting idea, but what makes this better/different than Heroic, Lutris, and other “integrate with Steam” things?

    I guess with Heroic, I have to install the games before they can be added to Steam. 🤔

      Main goal here is having everything directly integrated into steam. Being able to see your full GOG/Epic Library directly in steam and install games without leaving the steam interface.

    Fuck Epic Games Store.

    Buying up users with free games is a trash strategy, and I will not use it on Steam Deck, when their CEO actively stops games running on Linux.

    I’m definitely going to try this but I need to know, will my login details be remembered or do I have to re-login every few weeks like heroic? which honestly does my head in when trying to do it on the deck interface.

      I use Lutris and Steam to cover everything and it works great. Don’t see a need to unify on desktop Linux, unlike the Steam deck.

    Nice, it would be nice to streamline the process of installing and launching non-Steam games. It’s a multi-step process for me right now.
