  • If you don’t want to go the Heroic route (you really should go the Heroic route) you can

    1. download the offline installer from GoG
    2. add the installer as a none-Steam-game to Steam
    3. select Proton for compatibility
    4. run the installer
    5. add the installed game’s exe to Steam as a none-Steam-game
    6. select Proton for compatibility

    Trouble with that method is that Steam always creates a new Wine prefix (a kind of fake Windows drive) every time you run a new none-Steam-game with Proton. They can pile up and take unnecessary space away. It also makes it harder to install dependencies or mods or add ons.

    So yeah, Heroic is the way.
