Yeah, right now I mainly just use Steam or Heroic. I am keeping an eye on Faugus Launcher since it could end up being a pretty nice, lightweight option.

Also can't wait for Playnite when that finally starts being ported to Linux.

Lutris, Heroic, Steam, etc. all work in pretty much the same way for adding unofficial games. They just create wine/proton prefixes and add those as entries in the app.

Is it bad that I interpreted the "bang bang bang" as Cop 1 shooting a gun at first

LGTM! What a diverse roster

Based on the link sent by fossilesque@mander.xyz above, it seems somewhat unlikely. The video mentions that the sponge recombines into multiple small sponges, meaning the cells don't necessarily remember the original form.

I very well could be wrong in my interpretation though

What makes Steam so compelling for consumers is that it's more than just a digital storefront and launcher. They've expanded into so many different areas: Steam Input, Steam Remote Play, Steam Friends, Steam Workshop, Proton, Steam Marketplace, etc.

There is so much they do that it's not really just a store anymore -- it's an all-in-one platform. Most competitors do not come close to equal in any of these features; they usually just have basic launchers and maybe decent friend systems.

In my opinion, GOG is the best competitor yet because of their DRM-free installers and GOG Galaxy on windows which allowed you to have all your games in one place.

Am I missing something? How does MAS help with needing a MS account to just install windows?

I think the native version only unloads when the device is low on memory whereas the extension just does it all the time.
