minus-squareyeehaw@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·28 days agoWhat? You can buy gog games through heroic?
minus-squareampersandrew@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·28 days agoYeah, it just launches a web browser in the client, but behind the scenes, it’s using a referral code in partnership with GOG to make sure they get a cut. So you can support DRM-free and Linux gaming support at the same time.

minus-squarearakhis_@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·27 days agothanks for spreading the word looks like the solution i needed for all the smaller more useless launchers. wich it included connectability to ea/ubi/battleNet’s launchers too Xbox for example seems more solid to me as a gamerscore addict for example. Steam obviously the main standard you wouldnt want to compress
