    One day, Steamworks will also crap itself and we’ll find ourselves in the exact same situation. But that day isn’t today!

        If someone could actually compete with Steam, that would be great. Both gog and Epic don’t have linux launchers and lack many releases. If Steam is offline, it will be console gamers laughing at us.

          I just switched to Linux and there are multiple Launchers that support GoG. It is not official but honestly, that makes it better in my eyes. They are open-source, no bloat, no tracking, …

          Games not being on GoG is much more of an issue. :(

          I mean, you literally don’t even need the launcher from GOG to play/install the games

        I am aware but the post title implies that online gaming is normally free but not everybody has internet at home, though it is becoming rather common meaning it doesn’t always appear to be an additional cost. I was merely being a little pedantic though I suppose that might not have been clear.
