      well they should make it at least slightly usable. people harp on epic launcher when this piece of shit barely functions 20% of the time. if you have a big library, it’s useless.

      or it was, I stopped trying to make it with when i realized playnite exists.

        I have a large GOG library, I no longer use their launcher because I’m on Linux and use heroic. However their launcher always worked fine for me.

        I don’t recall ever having an issue. Are you sure there wasn’t something underlying going on with your system?

          yes. I’m talking about library including integration, which is the only reason I wanted to use galaxy to begin with. it fucks up all the time, losing games, not updating, logging out … not to mention its generally slow and clunky. playnite doesn’t look as nice but it’s 100x better in every other way.

            Strange, I guess to be fair I haven’t used their launcher in at least a year or two. Good that you found a solution that works better for you though.

        Eh, it’s literally there for games that need online access.

        I use it for theme hospital and that’s it. Everything else i standalone

        They don’t really though. I haven’t been on GoG in a minute, but when I was looking for an offline installer (I think for Cyberpunk?), it was very easy to find it
