I've successfuly installed a few GOG games with Lutris, might be worth a try

Sure, that will work too. Bit it's more of a hassle than just logging in and clicking "install".

Man, I have gotten lazy. :/

You can also link your GOG account and install whatever game you want. Once linked, you should only have to click install.

Oh yeah. Just had to uncheck the "show only installed" to see my stuff. Thanks. :D

Have you tried Heroic? I've heard it supports GOG but I've only used it for a couple Epic Games games

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I did install a couple of games with Heroic without issues. But @[email protected] said they had some kind of problem with it, so I recommended Lutris as an alternative. I haven't used Heroic in a while though, Lutris seems to work well enough for me.

Yup. It's basically random which games are installable today.

Currently I can install 6/34 of my games from gog:
