minigalaxy VS HeroicGamesLauncher

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.

Thanks for all the encourage we got from the Linux community! So, here's the changelog and a few Screenshots: * Completely changed the design based on the UX research we did * Added Global and per Game Settings‏‏‎‏‏‎‏‏‎‏‏‎­page to configure default wine (or proton), wine prefix, and launch options. * Option to install the game on a default path(configurable), custom path, or import an already installed game. * No need for Xterm anymore, all installation feedback is on the installation page now. * Login screen redone * Better menus for log out and refresh library * Option to filter only installed games. * Possibility to stop the installation * Possibility to stop a running game * Added Game description * Several bugfixes * Heroic creates a default config folder in $HOME/.config/heroic/config.json * Both Game configs and Launch logs are saved for the debugging process in the config folder /GamesConfig ​ https://preview.redd.it/fvf8t9kb6ca61.png?width=1410&format=png&auto=webp&s=1fca45b4b0daf31e1ba9474fbaadfa4ff1599a7c https://preview.redd.it/9bwn88jc6ca61.png?width=1447&format=png&auto=webp&s=c646e878b1a4d15283830f0d3cb7088c19cab93a https://preview.redd.it/pas5p7rd6ca61.png?width=1410&format=png&auto=webp&s=d8583da2d3d8c9efdf1b4a4b434c87816913e3f7 https://preview.redd.it/fla5od3f6ca61.png?width=1410&format=png&auto=webp&s=ba416573456f66c94ff6741eec3ca1c3c9e29aed https://preview.redd.it/rd9a0ovf6ca61.png?width=1410&format=png&auto=webp&s=fa7cd7787b151e8747ffa2ac30e8283e7d3c2a63 https://github.com/flavioislima/HeroicGamesLauncher/releases

https://github.com/flavioislima/HeroicGamesLauncher you can kinda yeet official EGS with this

Do you need egs? Have you tried https://github.com/flavioislima/HeroicGamesLauncher

I gave up trying to get it to work via Lutris. I think your best bet is to use Heroic Games Launcher (a native Linux third party app for downloading your Epic Games Store games).

Also all Blizzard games work perfectly in linux since improvements around 1-2 years ago, and there is now a native epic games launcher where lots of non-steam games work. People have also gotten Battlefront 2 and similar Origin games working, but I don't have much experience with that.

Is this the epic replacement you're referring to? I haven't heard of this before. I've been running epic games through proton and it's a bit of a PITA. would be nice to have a more seamless experience.

Did you check the git for installation or possible fixes for using custom wine?

Well if you owned rocket league before the epic games takeover then you can still play on steam. Also maybe check out Heroic for a native Linux EGS client
