@festus nice. So what’s the point of the gog launcher app after this? Anyways, I prefer to use heroic. Much lighter and easier.

Honestly I'm not sure - as I said I don't use it. I know of at least one game that's "DRM-free" but requires the GOG launcher for multiplayer (No Man's Sky). That's fairly controversial and I think the only reason why it's on GOG is because it came onto GOG back when it was a singleplayer only game.

@festus do you know why I get this error message using gog on heroic on the Steam Deck?

Sorry, unfortunately I don't use heroic.
