I’m trying to support GOG by buying some games for my Steam Deck (my only gaming pc), but the downloads through Heroic are really slow compared to Steam.
Since you can’t do any background downliading on Heroic on the Deck, I tried downloading the games on my desktop PC through Heroic and importing them on the Deck. Still it’s really slow…
Downloading directly on GOG is also really slow, so I wondered how you were doing it since I can’t have a 40gb game taking 5 hours to download.
Especially because turning off the Deck or my weak computer means starting from scratch again.
I’m on Linux for everything by the way.
How do you manage this?
Yeah but I don’t need so much speed as long as it’s faster than the 0.5 MB/s I’m getting for now.
It works for everything I do and is cheap and reliable.
Unfortunately, that amount of bandwidth is going to severely limit your download speed then. It’s even possible your isp throttles download speeds, especially on low end internet.
