See that, GoG? This can be done, it doesn’t hurt and there are already tools that can be used to build it without all too much effort.

Wow, after all this they’re still in the denial stage of grief, not knowing they continue to harm themselves

Iirc, the Arch wiki says you should synchronize all packages while adding new ones, and it’s technically unsupported. It might work in some cases, but personally I didn’t have to do much to not be able to launch something because symbols missing in libraries or no such file altogether. To avoid problems it’s better to sync packages fully at least once in a while.

So basically he said that the entire game industry leans towards… Fortnite?

Pasta with sweetened milk was very common back then and we called it “milk soup”. Some loved it, some hated it, I personally loved it, imo it was better than cornflakes. 90’s was tough times though and it’s not like we had access to too many things, it’s probably different today. And pasta with fruit sauce doesn’t seem strange to me even today.

Back then it was “too soon”

That’s the English language in a nutshell from my perspective as non-native

Heroic Games Launcher supports GoG pretty well. You can install it with Flatpak using Discover in desktop mode.

When you login to GoG and install a game, you will be able to “Add it to Steam” (top-right hamburger menu in game’s view) and it should then be available in your “Non-steam games” in gaming mode.

Other options are Bottles and Lutris

The thing with trying different distros drives me a bit nuts. If you’re getting consistently bad results across so many different ones, then you can see how distros don’t matter all that much after all. What really matters is your hw config combined with software config. Stop trying different distros expecting that some of them will maybe do something differently, stick to one and try to figure out the problem or ask for help. Only resort to other distro if you know that it will make something easier (eg provide more up to date packages).

You said what’s your hw configuration, but not much about how you handle NVIDIA drivers. By default, your GPU will run on open drivers built in Linux kernel called Nouveau, combined with OpenGL (and for your GPU that’s it for now) implemented in Mesa. This is enough for basic things to work, such as the desktop, video playback, office applications, but not necessarily games. For that you need the proprietary NVIDIA drivers. Check manual of your currently used distro for how to get those drivers in place. For your GPU even the newest drivers are available (560), so it’s good if your distro offers that. For drivers older than 555 series, use X11 session instead of Wayland.
