Lutris [Official Site, GitHub], the rather advanced game library manager is currently going through some major improvements with the 0.5.0 release that's in Beta. The latest new feature, is a rather nifty one.
Previously, to add a new game to Lutris you would search for it on the Lutris website and add it to your client. It worked, but it was a little bit annoying. That's all going to change in the next beta, as you will be able to search for a game in the Lutris client and add it that way. A small feature but an incredibly handy time-saver.
Take a look:

It's funny really, I never really got on well with Lutris until recently where it has become one of my most used applications. Especially handy for dealing with GOG downloads. The progress on it is staggering, great job Lutris team!
Our livestreamer, Sin, has also recently started using it. She dual-boots with Windows, which was for Overwatch and that was pretty much it. I introduced her to Lutris and Wine+DXVK and I think we have another full-time Linux convert on our hands she was so impressed at how well it all works.

Day ~6300 Windows Free and that's only because my employer provided Windows NT on my first dev system. Once I figured out how to work around run certain tools under Wine, the rest is history.
Welcome!
Damn, I'm beaten... only about 3400 days here. 4200 days @95% free and I'm still not close.
My hats off to you @TobyHaynes

On topic: THAT's a feature I wanted Lutris to have for ages. Glad that they added it! :)

Oooh! This looks fun, let's see!
Day 6966 on Linux as my main system and day 4041 as Linux-only (since purging Windows off my DAW setup).
Welcome to the penguins-only club (that makes it cool, right?), Sin!
And well done, Lutris!
Quoting: MaathSo what if you have hundreds or thousands of games? Do you need to search for each one individually and "install" it into Lutris?
It's been a while since I used Lutris, but I believe it will auto-import everything you already have installed/available on Steam.

How are you dealing with left control being non assignable?
EDIT: I mean in Overwatch

I believe you can remap your left-control to send a right-control signal by running this:
xmodmap -e "keycode 37 = Control_R"Beware that I haven't tested this at all.
