Will it work? I'm guessing probably not. It's obviously a shot across
the bow at Steam, trying to dislodge Valve's near-monopoly on PC
gaming. But it again makes the mistake of thinking that the reason for
Steam's success is because it's just a great way to LAUNCH your games,
when Steam offers so much more. And not having to (manually) launch a
second client for those few non-steam games is probably not enough
reason to give up the advantages of using Steam. So I don't see this
attempt having much more success than Epic Game Store, GOG galaxy or
other third-party clients like Playnite.
From a personal point of view I tend to agree as launching games is just not what I use Steam for. That's where desktop short cuts come into play.
