Really great to see an app that helps to install games on Linux and serve as a library of GOG, Epic Games and Amazon Games launcher.

They are also working on fixing or implementing anti-cheat games on Linux, which is a mess.

Thanks devs, your are heroes!

This is my first foray into using game launchers like Steam. I just love the idea of not needing launchers for each and every service. Sometimes my GOG games would not launch from here, so I load them into Steam as a workaround.

Heroic is the easiest appealing way to get Epic Games library to play on Linux with the help from Wine, Proton, and Steam Runtime.

It gives a good UI for Epic Games, and an easy way to download+install the games from there
