Quoting: GeamanduraIt looks great, but does it support incrementing the play time in your GOG account?

Not yet. PlayTime Tracking isn't done for Epic Games either at the moment.

And while I don't actually know, likely one also doesn't have that choice with any of the other stores (Epic, Ubisoft, etc.?)

Nobody says you can't do with them what people did with gog or epic games or amazon games.
Reverse Engineer them and make your own launcher is possible.
Some things are already done and heroic teased Amazon Games Support in the future already.
No reason to believe they aren't open for more

Quoting: DemandredNoob question, all games that run on the steam deck would work on a linux pc as well?

Yes and since a non-handheld is usually more powerful and has different outputs and inputs, the amount of games running better should be even higher.
You don't have to worry about small text, high power consumption, missing joystick and gamepad input and the likes :)

It would be great to have official api documentation and Sourcecode for every store and launcher out there. I guess steam is the most likely to do it.

Quoting: ShmerlStill no improvement for built in d3dcompiler_47 needed for Cyberengine Tweaks to work. With native override it works OK.

I hope that will come soon.
It seems to be affecting quite a few games together with vs runtimes.

it is a design beta to collect feedback ;)

I agree it is a bit aggressive in the current iteration.
If i just scroll through the list i prefer to see the cover art in full.
You don't necessarily have to show the full text with the games name. It is often part of the artwork too.
If you need the text, put it at the bottom at least.

Quoting: EhvisCombined game view! Yes! Now I really need the Amazon Games Store added to it. :happy:

I think Ubi or Origin would make more sense as they cooperate with Epic already.

Quoting: itsNottingcan someone please explain the hype about these launchers?
I mean, what is the advantage of using third party apps instead of just installing the native apps in steam?!
just for convenience?

If the handling of the original launchers is ok for you, do it that way.
I think the convenience is a big factor for normal people that just want to play their games.
Integration of games directly in the steam client is nice.

Outside a mobile handheld pc , you have one app to look at instead of many. Compared to epic heroic launches faster.
If more stores get integrated into Heroic, you can hopefully set priorities and bandwith accordingly in one place instead of having multiple apps fight over it.
The opportunities are endless to make it better than the original and custumize it to your needs, almost :)

Flatpaks update a bit later if i remember correctly.
Not always it is heroics fault if a game doesn't work, it could very well be one of the many cases where proton and wine as the emulation layer fail.
You should contact them , write a github issue, ask on their discord , supply a logfile.

Quoting: GuestIn fact, it just updated yesterday or today and the new version is even more broken than the last. Something about config files. (Config file is corrupted). I checked and there is a bug reported already and work is being done.

Try the post hotfix release 2.3.5 or an older one like 2.3.3.

What is your issue with gog games?
Sure it doesn't support achievements, social features or savegame sync yet but i wouldn't say Heroic is useless.
