Quoting: PlintslîchoI was wondering if it is possible to only download games and don't have them installed automatically.

Heroic and its gogdl doesn't use the standalone installers but downloads the game files directly.
You want something like https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc [External Link] or MiniGalaxy.

Quoting: pbGotta love the naming of these OSS alternatives. :wub:

You can't use the same name or the publisher might get angry but there still needs to be some kind of hint what the application should be used for :)

GamingOnLinux should link Twitter in their Mastodon Profile and Mastodon on the Twitter Profile.
There are scrapers that help people to see if their favourite content is available on the other side as well like
https://pruvisto.org/debirdify [External Link] or https://fedifinder.glitch.me/ [External Link] .
Tell your friends, adjust your settings.

I think allowing third party launchers to integrate better with Steams UI would be a nice "third party app" feature , Heroic or UbiConnect instead of Chrome would be a lot nicer.

Or a firefox browser that can be more easily controlled with a controller.

I think having a native Linux version of Battle.net that uses Proton to start their games like Steam does it, would be fine.
Having their games eventually move to Vulkan and become easier to port to Linux would of course be even better.
I can imagine Hearthstone being a nice addition to a portable computer like the steamdeck :)

Quoting: TermyI wouldn't be surprised if those changes are really intended to frustrate devs of alternate clients tbh...

Breaking their own cdn backend probably isn't done on purpose. The epic launcher had issues too :D

Quoting: TheRiddickNext year away! This isn't traditional console. And RDNA3 4nm APU's will definitely be available to Valve sometime next year.

Is the difference on the CPU and GPU side big enough though?
Hardware development slows down over the years so the differences between two generations become smaller as well.
