With the use of Heroic game launcher, I’m wondering if you all preferred to play your GOG version of games over the Steam version. I can go either way but sometimes I pause and think, having two copies of the same game, one on steam and one on GOG, which one would give me a better gaming experience. For example, I may choose the GOG version because I don’t have to deal with pre-shader work being downloaded every so often. I can just into my games. Yet, Steam achievements and seeing the game’s metadata is always life: seeing the game info, store page, community stuff about the game, and more all there. So what do you chose? GOG game or the Steam game.

    I doesn’t matter to me. But I do have all of my games (steam, gog, epic, etc) and emulators organized into steam with custom art work. Just so everything is in one place.

    Steam overlay and controls is turned off though. I could care less about achievements too.

      How do you turn off steam overlay and what does that do?

        Overlay is the screen that pops up when you press the “home” button on your controller. It’s just an extra layer of processing going on for no reason.

        You can turn it off in steams setting, and/or in the properties for each game.
