Legendary integration a lightweight epic games client

[Z0pyrus]

https://github.com/derrod/legendary It's made by derrod (https://github.com/derrod) "Legendary is an open-source game launcher that can download and install games from the Epic Games platform on Linux and Windows.", open API, CLI Epic Games store; launches and downloads games with a command line.

I've linked my account epic games account to GOG so I don't have to use Epic, but when I want to play a game I first need to install Epic, which I don't want. Legendary helped me out there, but unfortunate after I installed Games through legendary, GOG wont recognise the downloaded game.

Present in Galaxy API available integrations list? no

Supported platforms PC / Windows and Linux

Store content / licenses What kind of games does it offer? Their own games, exclusives, other platform keys? Kind of DRM if there is any: launcher required / in-game login / ... Games you purchased through Epic Game store

Galaxy features Which Galaxy 2.0 features could be potentially implemented (for at least one game)? Choose from:

• Launch Games

To add to this it'd be nice to support Heroic Games Launcher (GUI-Frontend built upon Legendary) when Legendary support is added. I guess it won't differ much

GOG will never support a 3rd-party launcher for a store that they have already integrated natively. https://github.com/derrod/legendary/issues/176#issuecomment-859617140

So it won't be promoted, but it is possible to create one https://github.com/derrod/legendary/issues/176#issuecomment-952196324

If anyone wants to try it, I've made a very simple legendary integration (https://github.com/currall/galaxy-integration-legendary). It isn't great and doesn't have all the features of most GOG integrations but if you want your games available there then you can try this
