Why? It's already annoying to have to use steam and heroic. Why would anyone want a third app?
Because people want what they want, and it doesn't hurt you.
I would imagine that you'd still be able to use Heroic for GOG
These are just wrappers for Proton. Why do we need one more? Just contribute those resources to Heroic. My dream is to not need steam either. I want to run games like we did before. Just launch an executable file.
You wouldn't be using Heroic in that case. Steam and GOG only.
