Free Desk error

Hi, Heroic Games isn’t launching Rocket League. I think it has something to do with the Free Desk end of life issue. In desktop mode of my Steam deck it won’t let me update anything because it saws that the FreeDesk app or whatever can’t be removed. Any tips?

cannot import some (but not all) of my gog catalogue

Hello, i am running into the following issue: out of the 5 games i wish to import from my gog catalogue (they are all already present on the computer , and all 5 games are in the same folder), there are 3 of them (mother russia bleeds, wh40K fire warrior and populous the beginning) which i can't manually import on heroic (when doing it, selecting the right folder where game is located, selecting the game's own folder, selecting that one to be the one where the app will pick the game from, i first get the notification confirming the game has been properly imported and all, but then looking back at the app, it still refuse to launch the game and tell me the game isn't anywhere to be found, despite that from both my file manager, and from mini-galaxy i can see the game being here and launchable. ). worth noting that i added extra permissions to heroic launcher trough Flatseal in order to give it explicit permission to access the folder where my gog catalogue is, but it didn't solve the problem. i would like to know if there is a method i can apply to solve the issue? (btw, i am on linux mint 22.2) thanks in advance for your future responses...

Borderlands 2 crashing on launch

Hello, Im relatively new to Heroic and Linux (Ubuntu), so please bear with me. I installed Borderlands2 (the Epic version) through Heroic a couple months ago and it ran fine, until one day it randomly became very laggy and it even my Discord calls had horrible lag when the game was on, even on background. After trying every Discord setting possible with no improvement, I decided to reinstall both Heroic and the game....

Can't launch Pathologic 2 | SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input

Hi everyone, I'm trying to play Pathologic 2, but it simply does not want to launch. I've looked at the logs (https://0x0.st/KMz9.log), there's an error message that says SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input. I've tried to look through the channel for problems with similar error messages, but couldn't find anything that would be comparable to the issue I had. There's a couple other threads with similar error messages, but they're either unresolved, or the solution is not applicable to my current situation (at least I think so). ...

RoboCop Fatal Error?

I'm trying to run RoboCop Rogue City but for some reason it crashes after a few seconds on startup? I've tried changing the prefix and using winetricks to install different Windows DLLs but nothings working. Changing Proton versions does nothing and if I wait long enough on the crashing screen it comes up with this error popup. If theres something I can do here I'd appreciate the help, Thanks everyone. Game was bought through GOG if that matters...
