Shared dualboot library tips

Hello ! I wanted to know if you had any tips for someone trying to setup a shared library of gog and egs games between Windows 10 and an ubuntu based distro using heroic, at least, for the linux OS. That means being able to install a game from windows and launching it on linux and vice-versa. Thx in advance !

One thing is don't use NTFS for a secondary drive format, it's truly awful

I use NTFS and I've set it up so there is no caps detection or those kind of things so linux doesn't brake my drive I already managed to set it up for steam games, I only need to find a way to make it work for EGS and GOG games well technically I know installing offline versions of gog gamles and adding them to steam works

its ok to use ntfs for the game files, but do not use ntfs for the prefix its not compatible
