    That was the goal of GOG Galaxy. It was just slow as molasses and had no Linux version.

    Lutris can also do that but it hasn’t been very reliable over the years and for some reason can’t offer a combined library view.

      Was GOG supposed to have Steam games in it? Because that’s what I’m asking for.

      Do you know if you can get GOG achievements and Steam achievements with Lutris?

        I think GOG could show Steam games. Probably used the same voodoo Lutris uses to display them.

        Last time I used Lutris it would just download the installer from GOG’s website which don’t have any achievements unless they are accessible in the game. Heroic does have them but no notification while playing that you got one.

        Steam in Lutris would just launch Steam so achievements worked there. But last I looked Lutris didn’t display the Steam games you own through your family. And you had to actively refresh the list of games.

          Thanks.

          Lutris would be fine if it allowed me to get achievements on Steam and GOG.

          Without these it’s not really useful as achievements are a great motivation to go a bit deeper into games for me.
