Seems like every week over on GamingOnLinux there's an announcement of a new launcher.

Personally I only use Steam & Lutris. Lutris for my gog games and BattleNet, Steam for everything else.

I don't know of a good reason to use Heroic, or any of the other new ones over Lutris / Steam, but maybe I'm missing out.

@Jarmer

For Steam, there's not much of a question; they have a native app that gets the job done.

For Epic and Gog, Heroic makes a good launcher in general.

For Amazon games, I use the "nile" launcher.

As for EA, I've managed to install the EA App manually to a fresh 64-bit prefix; I just made sure that I run "winetricks d3dcompiler_47" in that prefix, and that DXVK is installed.
