com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl VS minigalaxy

The link you put states that the command is heroic but that would be true only in the first two cases (RPM package from the repos or manually installed). If you installed it as a flatpak from FlatHub, e.g., the command would rather be:

The epic games launcher doesn't have linux support. Download the Heroic Games Launcher from flatpak https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl

Thanks to the 2.5.0 release of Heroic available on Github (also available as an appimage) and Flatpak now the user has the ability to add Windows executables and installers in Heroic, and preview them in his library, here a little more information about this:

Try Heroic Games launcher, it replaces EGS and GOG launchers.

Install Heroic Games Launcher from the Discover store, it definitely seems like the best way to run Epic and GOG games: https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl Heroic can then add shortcuts to the games you install to Steam, so you can launch them in game mode.

You could ask the maintainers of the Heroic flatpak to add gamescope as an extension, it should be fairly simple to implement and PolyMC and WarThunder are currently doing that.

You can download Heroic Games from Discover (shopping bag icon) in desktop mode (link to the flathub page: https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl).

Not really, I just installed the Flatpak from here: https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl

Personally I use mini galaxy. https://sharkwouter.github.io/minigalaxy/

Minigalaxy is great for native apps. Lutris is hit or miss for wine/DVXK.

E.g. Minigalaxy offers many of GoG Galaxys features (Tagging /u/anevilduck here in case he doesn't know it) and only has around 13500 lines of Code.

The official client isn't, but there is a 3rd party one available for Linux https://github.com/sharkwouter/minigalaxy

So long as you have a Vulkan capable GPU, you should be able to get almost all GOG games working. You could use Lutris with GOG Galaxy, Lutris with GOG offline installers or MiniGalaxy.

HeroicGamesLauncher / MiniGalaxy: Launcher alternative for the EpicGamesLauncher / GoG.

Besides there are other projects like https://github.com/sharkwouter/minigalaxy that has some of their coding from PlayNite and of their own to work on Linux and there are Tutorials like https://playnite.link/forum/thread-1156.html to make it work nonetheless. Also thanks to Steam's Proton layering, everything is easier at Linux gaming side.
