      Having a client that’s actually integrated with your account, with the ability browse, purchase, and download games, is going to be a requirement to complete with Steam

        I suppose but the only reason I use gog is to download games without having to use a goddam launcher

        I’m sure many people want a launcher and as long as I can keep not using it I won’t care

        But not using a launcher is the reason I have a gog library

          TBH the only reason I even want a launcher is that game achievements require it. AFAIK this is possible with other launchers like Heroic, but I never bothered setting it up for the GOG games I do own.

      You’re right but the good point of the HL is the convenience and fast of use. On my Deck is the best way to have all my GOG and (freebie) Epic games with one click, dlc included.
