Favorite way to load GOG games on Steam Deck (feddit.de)

What's your preferred way to install your games from GOG on a steam deck?

I started using Heroic, but I didn't love it for my own dumb reasons and instead I install the games on the desktop and add them as a non steam game. This process is kind of a drag, and I'm sure heroic has improved since I last used it like 18 months ago or so.

What's your opinion?

Oh .. I should figure out if bottles has a similar option for steam too.....

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 years ago

You can add executables easily, but there's no setting to automatically add everything to steam.

Do GOG achievements and cloud saves work?

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Cloud saves yes

Achievements are supposed to work too no? Apparently you just don’t get a notification but they should appear in your GOG account. Can you confirm?

This thread is two years old, at the time definitely not.

I recall some experimental achievement system existing last I checked, but it was not part of Heroic.

[–] Dariusmiles2123@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

From what I know it’s an experimental feature through Comet on Heroic, but I would just to have a confirmation that it works. Sadly I can’t find this😅

I'm used to Lutris, so I use that. I usually also use it to set up Linux native games.
