I was up for a Steam competitor.

GOG Galaxy has been good even before Epic Store existed.

My only complaint about GOG is that developers treat it as an afterthought. Plenty of games that stop receiving updates, or are pulled out of the store entirely, while the Steam version remains maintained. Also, the required lack of DRM makes multiplayer online games relatively scarce.

GOG is great. I have an account and have bought a few games there when I think of it. I just wish they had Souls games.
