    Also, every game launcher on Windows still puts games in the start menu.

      Honestly, it’s been a very long time since I last used start/windows menu as a… menu I guess. I don’t think I’ve tried to explore it since early XP. Back then I’d even try to organise it a bit by categories and such.

      Now I have way too many games to make it readable, with a lot of these not currently installed but available. The only way I’m using the windows menu is with the search bar.

      Having a dedicated game library (with everything in it) makes sense to me.

        It’s why I’m a fan of GoG. You can link all your accounts to it so it’ll show you all the games you own across all launchers/platforms. And you can even start them from the GoG launcher.

          I did use Gog Galaxy as my main library for a while too. I switched to playnite at one point because it had more options and updates.
