    Heroic Games Launcher and Lutris both have Epic and GOG integration.

    While I would love to have an official GOG Launcher on Linux, it would probably not work as well as Heroic’s integration.

      I’m aware, I just like to gently remind people that the stores they want to shop from, seemingly don’t want their money. I view the deck as a kind of linux trojan horse for gaming, SteamOS on more devices could at least convince GOG that linux is worth supporting.

      Epic has an axe to grind and I expect nothing from them.

          Why? I claim them all the time on my phone, and occasionally play them through Heroic. I’ve never installed EGS on any of my devices, but I’ve played a few through Steam’s integration.

          A free game is a free game, but I’ll never buy from EGS while they’re so hostile to my preferred platform: Linux. I’ll occasionally buy from GOG, but honestly, their DRM-free schtick isn’t nearly as valuable to me as Valve’s investment in Linux.

        So, they ignore Canada and refuse to support the people there. Greaaat.
