Anyone using Heroic Launcher for games from Epic on Mint?

What games worked well for you on Heroic? I've had basically zero problems since I switched and it's so much faster and reliable than the native Epic client on Windows.

I use it on Debian with both epic and steam and it always works well.

Cool to know it works so well across distros.

Only complaint is I wish installing the launcher added a shortcut to the "start" menu or desktop.

My installation added a start menu entry, but I'm sure the installation and distro makes a difference there.

I added it to my panel too.

Interesting, it may be because I had to use their installer instead of a Deb package

I'm using Heroic on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed; works well. I'm using it for Epic games (though I don't often play games from epic. I've tried 20XX, Brotato and Fallout so far, they all work.

Cool! Thanks, I played the Fallout series on Heroic too and I thought it was crazy how well it ran because I had just ditched the native client.
