I like Lutris. Haven’t tried Heroic, but the configuration menu of Lutris really gives a lot of power
I decided I want to use antimicrox for a game. Started looking into how to pass a script to Lutris, so it would auto-launch antimicrox with the correct file.
No need, Lutris already has that option. You just give it the path and it does it all itself.
You want to set ENVs for game process? There’s a table for that in the config.
You still need to launch a script? Of course, it’s in the config. You want it ran before or after running the game?
Mind blownlutris definitely takes the cake when it comes to customizability, but i consider it a bit hard on the UX… especially for new users.
i always recommend Heroic first, and if there are problems then one can use lutris (or bottles in really bad situations) as a backup.
What’s the point of doing all of that?
Another Lutris advantage: it doesn’t come with all that Electron bloat.
I’m glad they mentioned Minigalaxy, a GOG game launcher that looks simpler than Lutris and lighter than Heroic.
