Bottles itself is great, but your running the windows version of GOG Galaxy in Bottles. So it can be a bit fussy at times.
Heroic runs on Linux. I have it from Flatpak. Linking it to my GOG account was easy. The UI is a little better to me and definitely more responsive. I can also pick custom versions of WINE or Proton on a game by game basis as well. With Bottles everything runs with a single runner. Hasn’t been a problem yet, but it’s a nice option.
I found Lutris to be a complete pain. GOG Galaxy in Bottles and Heroic Games Launcher have been much better.
I have been using Lutris but I am always happy to learn! Do you know a good guide you could point me towards to get started with Galaxy in Bottles?
This has the process:
https://docs.usebottles.com/bottles/installers#use-installers
It’s pretty much install bottles>>create bottle>>click on install programs>>GOG Galaxy
That said I’ve just started using Heroic Games Launcher and I think I prefer that. Granted I haven’t done too much with it yet.
Thanks!
I haven’t tried Heroic yet either. What do you like better about it versus Bottles so far?

Heroic was the closest to a steam-like experience for GOG games to me. (While having a very Epic-esque UI).
Lutris worked OK. But seemed to need more tweaking to make things work.
