    Maybe I’m too entrenched in my ways. But I’ll take no game over having to deal with additional launchers or whatever else is required to game without using Steam.

    GoG, Epic, Ubisoft, EA… Not interested.

      GoG’s launcher can launch games from other launchers and it’s really not a big deal to have multiple. It’s not ideal to need a launcher but it’s a snappy launcher and not at all the same terrible experience as Ubi and EA’s that have the most obtrusive and sluggish setups.

        Have a Lemmy gold: 🥇 !

        This, to my mind, is the one biggest benefit of GoG. No separate launcher/front-end/DRM needed.

        On the topic of launchers though, I’m a big fan of Heroic Launcher (for Linux at least). Can hook it into GoG, Epic, and Amazon.
