      Lutris downloads files from GoG using their API, which has heavily throttled download speeds. It was going to take 19 hours for CP2077 to download using Lutris.

      Downloading the 50 pieces individually from GoG through the browser took under and hour, but was quite annoying.

      If you don’t play any large games, you might not have noticed, but Lutris and GoG do not work very well together.

        I always download the offline installers and install them via the generic “install from executable” option. I’ve actually never used the features for downloading games from online game services on Lutris. The whole reason I buy from GOG is I can download the offline installer and never have to deal with anyone else’s servers after that point. It works excellently.
