Heroic is great, but this does have a useful place. In addition to epic and gog, this also supports:

  • Amazon Games Launcher ✔️
  • Battle.net ✔️
  • EA App ✔️
  • Epic Games ✔️
  • GOG Galaxy ✔️
  • Humble Games Collection ✔️
  • IndieGala ✔️
  • Itch.io ✔️
  • Legacy Games ✔️
  • Rockstar Games Launcher ✔️
  • Ubisoft Connect ✔️
  • Glyph ✔️
  • Playstation Plus ✔️
  • VK Play ✔️

And it makes it easy to make native looking web apps for the following:

  • Website Shortcut Creator ✔️
  • Xbox Game Pass ✔️
  • GeForce Now ✔️
  • Amazon Luna ✔️
  • Netflix ✔️
  • Amazon Prime Video ✔️
  • Disney+ ✔️
  • Hulu ✔️
  • Youtube ✔️
  • Twitch ✔️
  • movie-web ✔️

Finally it imports games installed through the different app stores to make them appear like native apps.

The remote play together integration is great too, because that will easily let you play local multiplayer games online regardless of what store they come from. That alone might make it worth using over heroic for party-style games from epic.

Why do you think they shouldn’t add support for them?

Really wish people would stop adding support for EA, Ubisoft, Rockstar, etc.

Uh, what?
