I want to add onto this that if you're choosing between Lutris and Heroic, you should probably go heroic. I personally use Lutris myself, Mostly because I prefer the UI design of it. However, heroic does have a faster update cycle, while having built in support of Amazon gaming, epic games(including experimental cloud support) and gog, and doesn't have the bugs that Lutris has. Especially when it comes to trying to run GE layers through it.

Trying to get those first party storefronts to work on Lutris is, for lack of better words, a pain in the ass. I'm only still using it out of pure stubbornness because, like I said, I much prefer the overall layout.
