[Epic Games] Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel (Free/100%)
Personally I use legendary which is basically just a super-lightweight commandline launcher that also handles stuff like setting up wine if running on linux. But if you don't want quite that bare-bones, there's also a couple of GUI wrappers: rare is a fairly lightweight native app that feels pretty snappy, though it can be a bit unpolished in places, and heroic, which is an electron app and so a bit more heavyweight. but more of a direct drop-in replacement.

Mullvad in GTA Online
There's also a 3rd-party Epic client Legendary which has a couple of GUIs like Rare and Heroic, which may work differently with mullvad's split-tunnel.

An Epic Failure (Epic Games Launcher issues from my perspective)
Legendary, Rare and Heroic are good alternatives.

Just gonna leave this here
Also if you don't want to use cmd commands you can find some tools that give you a simple interface, I made one for windows and there is another one called rare that supports windows and linux.

An actual fix for the insanely slow download/update speeds of Epic Games Launcher (Re-uploaded)
Alternatively, you can use another launcher. This is what I do and have zero download issues. https://github.com/derrod/legendary https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/HeroicGamesLauncher https://github.com/Dummerle/Rare

Easy Anti-Cheat not as simple as expected for Proton and Steam Deck
Ah, yeah the software and software support is miles better. Epic Games Store is frankly poorly made software. I thus recommend everyone who wishes to run it to instead run Heroic or Rare instead, regardless of OS.
-
over 30 games that is free on GoG and with some good Linux games in between
Better off using Legendary/Rare or Heroic though.

Heroic Launcher broken?
try rare (another frontend for legendary, works with heroic) for right now as it does not have the same problem as heroic
