Comment on Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford says his hopes on Epic Store were 'overly optimistic or misplaced'

Using Junk Store on my Steam Deck (and redeeming free games on the mobile website) to completely avoid the Epic Launcher 😎

Please tell me more about this Junk Store, I’d been using Heroic for Epic games but it’s been a bit dodgy recently

Sure, it’s a plugin through Decky. It allows you to log in to Epic and it displays your library in its separate window, allowing you to install them as Non-Steam Games. It’s quite easy

I’ve not used Decky before, it always seemed like one of those things that needed constant tinkering. Is it still a bit bleeding edge or has it reached the “it just works” stage yet?

Decky itself is fine, some plugins are buggy. If you install it and Junk-Store, you should be fine with no problems. I run like a dozen plugins and I only ever had problems with the UI customization ones: css, and animation changer. I uninstalled those and it’s all passive now.
I’ve only had problems with one game from Epic. The rest worked just fine with no tweaks
