DepotDownloader VS gogrepoc

There's also DepotDownloader that lets you download anything, including past version, from Steam https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader

I use this to download historical versions of a game to help with reverse engineering to archive dialogue trees from a game https://dialogue.destiny.report

I'm not sure how you could just download the launcher. You want the Launcher.exe from this version. A quick google brought up this downloader: https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader

Steam Depot Downloader (requires DotNet)

Continuing to add to the confusion on the topic by trying to argue that Steam is DRM because you have to buy the game through Steam is counter-productive. (And apparently Steam's client isn't the only browser available.)

Not by Steam means. I don't know if it's still functional (update on last year) but https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader is what you're looking for and you need to learn the DLCs depot number from SteamDB to feed that information into this program.

use this https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader

If you are looking for a specific version of the game and you own it on steam you could download it using something like DepotDownloader. An example of this would be downloading the first pubic version of the game

You can still rollback with the help of the DepotDownloader: https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader

Two projects I greatly appreciate, allowing me to easily archive my bandcamp and GOG purchases (after the initial setup anyways):

https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader

https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc

And I recently learned about archivebox, which I think is going to be a fast favorite and finally let me clear out my mess of tabs/bookmarks: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox

I should really write up a full Linux and windows setup guide and submit it.

Likewise, people who use bandcamp are likely to use GOG, which also has purchase archiving tools available on GitHub. I’ve used https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc for a long time, but there are actually multiple projects now.

Tools like https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc use these blue dots to know which games are updated, without having to do an intensive and long full scan of you library.

See above that's what I used and it works perfectly and its gogrepoc the other one is vastly out of date. Don't use the one you linked too.

I download my GoG games & extras directly to my RAID 1 NAS using gogrepoc.

Personally I use a app called gogrepoc.py It creates a manifest based off of your account and allows you to generate a current log of games. And you can update those in the future so it spins through your entire list and will mark changes. Unfortunately it takes a while if your catalog is huge but it's a great way to keep everything up to date.

I use https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc

For windows, I found: https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc Didn't test that one tho.

Yes, there is. I use a program called gogrepo to automate the process of downloading games like this. I think there are a couple other similar projects out there (definitely a couple forks of gogrepo), but this one suits me.

Oy you're outdated then it's Gogrepoc now and it has many more features including a trash mode instead of keeping the old stuff ;)
