Epic Game Store is focused so hard on making it good for devs but they have also intentionally neutered it for gamers. Does it even run on Linux yet? We all know that's the direction Valve is taking things and it's why Microsoft is starting to panic.

Not from Epic, no. But there is Legendary https://github.com/derrod/legendary

It's (relatively, don't use the embedded browser) pure Python and runs anywhere. I also use it on my Win7 retro machine because the Epic Launcher sucks. It also supports epic DRM and can log the game in.
