I am wondering how people are managing their Windows GOG games on Linux. Obviously the base game works fine on Steam Proton, but I run into trouble when I try to install DLC. If I add the addons to Steam, they can’t see the base game, as they are a separate instance/container.
Is there some way I can get around this, and run the DLC installers in the same Proton instance as the base game? Is there another solution for managing Proton that isn’t Steam, which allows this? A whole third option I haven’t thought of?
Thank you.

Please stop suggesting Heroic; I saw it the first 10 times.


Also vote for Heroic. First install the main game as usual. Then in Heroic game settings use the “Run in prefix”, select the DLC exe. Done.
