And again after the update they broke something instead of fixing it...

They made the game icons in the library much larger and there is no way to make them smaller.

Please restore the old icon size or give the option to reduce their size.
I fully agree, the current update is a mess.
Huge Icons and crazy lag for loading icons in Grid View.

It gets especially strange when you start scrolling up and down.
Then suddenly icons already displayed start disappearing again.

Since I ingegrated Steam, Epic, Ubisoft, EA, ... I have more than 1500 games in my library.
Yesterday everything was working nicely ... now my library is basically broken / unusable.

Please fix the Grid View again.
Otherwise revert these changes.

I have a lot more problems after the update.
I hate the look of the big icons.
When I move anything the app keeps lagging and skipping.

GoG please fix this quickly or revert to the previous version.

Never updating GoG Galaxy again.
Hovering over games in the library no longer shows icons indicating the platform(s) they're owned on.

I also would like the old icon sizes back. I liked mine smaller than the new minimum size.
After contacting GoG, I received information that the new update will improve icon sizes and lag problems.
And the actual 2.0.99.23 update fixed all my problems.

Thanks GoG !!!
NeverwinterNights EE constantly crashes Galaxy on start up now. Didn't use to do it.

This client gets worse with every update.

Still no toggle for that retarded spammy "please leave a review" pop up after I have played a game too. I am going to start leaving bad reviews for every game I get a pop up for now. Makes one wonder what kind of retard came up with that intrusive function.

Installed the game just to test it and its working fine for me. Started it a few times no crashes, no issues. Its strange that the launcher crashes and not the game.

It worked like a charm here too - untill the last update.

Dito.
I use GOG Galaxy Beta 2.0.100.1, Windows 11.

I installed "Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun" (https://www.gog.com/en/game/shadow_tactics_blades_of_the_shogun) and played once. The next day when I start GOG Galaxy it shows the game in Installed list but only for Epic store. There is no "Play" button, only "Install". But the game is already installed. For some reason GOG Galaxy shows this game as Epic only (see attachment). But I bought this game in GOG store. How to fix it?

The image shows that you have 3 versions of the same game (the square icon at the top), you need to click that icon and select the GOG one.
I've got 2.0.100.1 installed. It won't let me install the latest version of Galaxy; it says it fails to install. When I try to install it from the download on the gog galaxy website, it says that there's a newer version detected and cancels the installation. Would uninstalling it and reinstalling it from the gog website work, or will I just run into the same error?

If you use integrations, you may want to consider holding off on the update. It seems that all new integrations are required (except in the case of steam in some cases) for 2.1.
I'm glad that now the Steam plugin works, but I don't know why Galaxy in a few minutes takes 5 GB of ram and also soft-crashes. Hope this will be fixed soon, as for now it's not viable.
