I’ve got a substantial library of games on GOG and Epic that I wanted to play on the Steam Deck, and I’ve used the Heroic Launcher with some success to access a lot of my libraries on those two platforms, but managing the compatibility per game is a bit frustrating and sometimes after an update things break.

Can anyone else share any success or failure stories here? The only other place I’ve seen this discussion was on Steam itself and I wanted a non-steam take on the practice of running non-steam platform games and what works.

    I think the strange thing is when a game is listed as Steam deck compatible and the same exact game on GOG doesn’t work with the latest Proton.

      You mean listed on Steam as being SD compatible? Yeah, I expect Steam adds a little bit of secret sauce to get their hosted titles working correctly. I’ll check online resources that specifically target Epic and GOG game compatibility.
