Google has deep pockets and I think Upstream wine could benefit from it.
I don't like the idea of having another fork besides Proton as that would mean duplicated work and people missing bugfixes if they choose the wrong edition.

Converting to longs or other infrastructure work seems to be the current focus for wine.
No wonder that there aren't any major Bugfixes for games.
I think we will need to wait a couple of weeks to see more interesting changes again..

Quoting: g000hHeroic launcher is like what Epic launcher would have been for Linux but better - no store and no adverts, muhahaha.I think a unified store across platforms would be a cool feature. You don't need to use it if you don't want.
XCOM 2's multiplayer being removed but will still work on Linux and Steam Deck

When they patch the game to remove the multiplayer, they could take care of some old useless warnings and limitations in native code. I am sure the modding community has some ideas what to fix :)
Heroic Games Launcher 2.2 (plus a hotfix) adds GOG support

Battle.net uses own file format and protocols and multiple binaries and i suspect the anti-cheat system doesn't solely rely on the executed games.
I am sure help is always welcome.

Quoting: SacredsinAs always thanks for the awesome launcher. Any plans to add Origin or Battlenet support?While it would be nice, the amount of research that needs to be done is huge.

Quoting: wvstolzingI've seen the latest version of Galaxy recently, and tbh I really was taken aback by how messy it looked & was to use. I believe its original promise was to be simple, functional, optional/'out of the way', etc. Pretty disappointing on that front as well.Apart from the front page of a game where the description is too small compared to the activities box, i like the general design and features and the possibility to connect other platforms like ubi into a common library.
XCOM 2 gets a Free Weekend plus a MASSIVE discount

Absolutely love that game.
It would be nice if they went the Skyrim and Witcher 3 way and worked together with the community for a final update with enhanced moddability and bug fixes and maybe offered the best mods as optional defaults with the authors permission.
The Community Highlander is nice but it doesn't have access to native functions and therefore we lack some things like being able to influence the "detection tiles" when changing the rules.

I wish Valve would open up the Source and API for Steam so we can create the ultimate allinone store from the community.
It is just dedicated browser mostly anyway :D

Quoting: MayeulCKeep in mind that Heroic is unofficial, and could be cut out at any time... I prefer to remain on Steam for the time being !Two totally different tools.
