Just got invited! I downloaded the application and logged in, but when I try to connect any external account (Steam, Epic Games, uPlay, Origin), I just get a "Failed to start. Retry." error. Anyone experiencing this?

Edit: Turns out all you have to do is reinstall the client!

Had the same problem. Restarting Galaxy 2.0 helped. Also, keep in mind that it takes some time for the connection process to kick in, so don't spam the buttons. Do it one at a time. Click and wait for a pop-up window.

Uplay achievements are not syncing, I see.

Also getting the "Failed to start. Retry" problem. Reinstalling the client or restart and trying again later both seem to do nothing to help. Only the Xbox integration works for me.

The same here. Looks like this has started a few hours ago or so, as I was able to link Steam earlier today. I think it's some server problem and all will be ok after some time.

Really hope the server gets fixed: wanna test the connection feature for this.

Aha, makes sense. It seems to have just started working again too!

The same here.

Yup, connected it all just right now.
Integration is really good, even in beta state: though I would like an option to browse clients stores directly from Galaxy. Nothing against GOG wanting to sell games just would be nice to also directly browse stores from others without opening their client.

So got the client today, i just gotta say first off thanks for the invite, ive been anxiously awaiting this!

Only issue i have had was connecting platforms, i simply re-ran the program in administrator, nothing worse.

Its really self intuitive and i have setup my own list games by giving them identical tags and bookmarking / highlighting that tag giving it its own shortcut on the left tab, everything just works so far of the features available, but with whats there this is really promising and i am hoping things become more polished, its a really great system with the tags for making a custom game list tab and the ability to give it its own name.

I use Playnite as a one launcher to launch them all and i am using this as comparison.

In terms of features, its shaping up to competing with Playnite, but playnite itself has some really nice features i would love to see
Alternative ways of connecting or acquiring other client information such as API keys
Ability to add games manually
Ability to add games that run through emulators
Ability to access the alternative launch options a lot of games have, especially on Steam
Improved aesthetics, mainly the filter options are the top, perhaps a possibility to hotkey them away or fade it into the background, the visuals on the https://www.gogalaxy.com/en/ top page is what i would aim for in terms of looking really neat and clean.

no doubt i am missing stuff but these are my quick thoughts after trying it out for the few hours ive had during this day.
Also curious to see what plugins are out there and will be coming in the future.

Thanks again for the invite!

OH BOY I AM SO EXCITED TO HAVE BEEN INVITED!
First off, finding this forum should have been much easier than having to open the mail and then get into this discussion on the browser!
I integrated my steam, origin, xbox anywhere (no i dont have a console) and all the games showed up perfect!
I see my achievements from NFS payback, and other steam games all have come across including Forza 4 !!

i intend to try and install nfs payback using this launcher (since i removed the game and origin access a while back) to see if thats possible.
Did close steam and launch a steam game, but tat just opened steam up which i suppose is still in the works

I dont see any friend lists from steam.

One thing i would like to see is, if i have a game purchased on steam, but i go to the gog store, i would like to see a msg or comment showing that i have the game in my accumulated library!

The bookmarks of the games, love it! but wish i could change the order to what i like...
thats about all i can say for now

Extremely impressed by the main menu screen!
To be able to see forza 4, devil may cry 5, everspace (which was the free game during summer sale) all in one window!
This is a really well done launcher for a beta!

So happy to be in the Beta!

The only problem I've seen so far in terms of the UI is that when switching from one tab to another in "Games", the purple animated bar is re-centered once the animation has been completed, like 1 pixel or so, at least when navigating through the menus in a 4K monitor.

Also, I'm having trouble starting Hitman 2 (Steam) from it. It does say "We're launching a game through Steam" but it won't open up anything. I can confirm that Shadow of the Tomb Raider, which uses the same launcher and is also played through Steam, starts just fine; so it seems to be a problem with H2?

Lastly, are there plans to add Windows Store games and not only Xbox ones?

Will keep coming back here if I find something else that may be a bug or an issue.

I got invited yesterday and I'm excited to see this working much better than 1.x ever did. The old version of GOG had communication issues on my machine after about 75 games were installed.

For reference: iMac Retina 5K (2015, 4GHz i7), 32 GB RAM, 4GB Radeon R9 M395X, macOS 10.14.5; All platforms connected (Epic, Origin, PlayStation, Uplay, Steam, Xbox)

There are a few issues that I'm not sure are covered under the Known Issues list:
- Coverart is inconsistent across platforms, issues include: Missing coverart, platform-specific coverart (PC, PS2, PS4, Xbox) that may or may not coincide with actual platform covered, ESRB/PEGI/CERO rating codes (a global platform shouldn't rely on regional ratings), landscape-based coverart in a portait-based viewpoint resulting in cutoff titles
- Game lists filtered to macOS include titles that are not available for the platform, including titles on GOG
- Tags given to games on GOG 1.x or GOG.com are not listed when in List View/Grid View grouped by tag
- Game counts are not given for bookmarks/collections on the sidebar.

Does playing games from other Launchers have any advantage over steam´s "add non-steam game" option?
