When you make a trash launcher, people tend to ignore it. Who knew?

You could create the best launcher in the world and people would ignore it because they don't want multiple launchers and their library is already centralized on Steam.

I'm starting to build up my GOG library quite a bit, and that launcher in its current state is still better than Ubisoft Connect.

I feel like both ubi and gog launchers are basically unusable. I have no idea why gog doesn't fix their shit

For GOG just use Heroic.

Maybe.

But until there's an alternative that isn't outright disrespectful with how complete and utter dogshit it is it's hard to say that for sure.

Inertia matters. But so does the fact that no one has bothered putting the work in to not be a trainwreck.
