Thank you everybody, I went with Heroic Launcher

I'd like to log into my GoG account and click on "install game" from within the game store without having to manually download the installer, manually install the game, and then add it to the game store to act as a launcher (like steam does). Seems to defeat the purpose of a game store.

Purchasing the game on the web is fine, it's more the game management aspect I'm looking for. Does that exist?

Yeah, but Heroic is the best out of all these. Unlike Lutris it can use the GOG Galaxy API to only download the needed files and keep the games up to date. And unlike GOG Galaxy it supports the Linux versions of games and using different Proton/Wine versions and settings if necessary.

On top of that it supports Amazon and Epic. If it were to gain itch.io and Steam support it would be almost perfect.
