I use GOG to get away from downloading things in the context of a store and have a nice little archive of installers to use whenever I want it. I am trying to get as many Steam games to just be that way so when I run the binary it just works without Steam being involved at all. Laughably few will do it on their own but there are some ways around others…
Yeah, quite happy without some bloated launcher, thanks.
in theory, comet should handle it, but it is inconsistent for me. does it depend on the game? for instance, i only got achiements in brigador, but i played art of rally, dungeons 2-3, and a couple others which should have achievements, but didn’t get any

What ways do you use to run Steam games without Steam? The Goldberg emulator?
IIRC galaxy could download installers. Maybe I’m confusing it with the older gog client
but think of the achievements!!
Heroic handles them!

Personally, I detest achievements and wish I could easily turn it all off from steam entirely.
