So if you’re hoping you can just have all of your games without most of those “pesky” launchers installed, I’m sorry to disappoint. GOG Galaxy 2.0 doesn’t work without having the other launchers installed. It’s smartly designed that feels like a true home for all your games to live. It’s clean, platform agnostic, and overall a slick presentation that provides customization, and useful information. GOG Galaxy 2.0 is what I’ve wanted out of those apps, and more. Not even Steam, the launcher I’ve used the most felt like the place I wanted all of my games to live out of. And of course I’ve even used Steam to add non-Steam games, but the implementation feels half-baked. So I tried Rainway, an application mainly used to stream your games at home or while away, but it brings together all your games in a single view which it felt off despite its clean styles. I’ve tried programs like Playnite that promise to link all of your PC gaming libraries together, and they work reasonably well, but something didn’t feel right. If you’re invited, you’ll see the above in your inbox to get started. The application is in Closed Beta presently, and while it has a ways to go, all the important pieces are there to prove that GOG Galaxy 2.0 is a must-have launcher with a singular focus. But thankfully GOG Galaxy 2.0 handles it so well, you won’t think about the other launchers as they operate in the background. There’s an overwhelming sensation that there’s too many launchers to install, use, and manage - and that’s right, there are. That’s no doubt a feat unto its own, but its an achievement because they’ve done it. They promised an application that would not only be the launcher to unify all launchers, but it would also bring in your console games as well.
