You don't need to use GOG's launcher, they provide offline installer downloads.
Have a Lemmy gold: 🥇 !
This, to my mind, is the one biggest benefit of GoG. No separate launcher/front-end/DRM needed.
On the topic of launchers though, I'm a big fan of Heroic Launcher (for Linux at least). Can hook it into GoG, Epic, and Amazon.
