Could this be what everyone desperately wants, to deal with those multiple platform woes?

It's does? Sorry I had no idea. I've never been that bothered about multiple launchers but have seen people saying they want this many times in other threads.

I got access around a week ago but have only just had time to give it a try. I've not spent long with it so far but seems to work pretty well. Linked to Steam and can see all my Steam games, you can then easily install or launch one. You can view all your games together, or by platform, or those currently installed, there are also other ways to filter such as genre. You can also see things like time played and achievements. I believe you should also be able to see your steam friends but that's not working yet.

Does anyone know yet, if i link my Steam account to the GOG launcher and I then install a Steam game from within GOG, does it save my Steam game files to the GOG folder or still save them in the Steam folder?

It will save it to your steam folder, it will pop up with the usual steam install dialogue box so you can select which steam install location to use if you have multiple setup. Steam is still doing all the work and needs to run, this is just pointing to it really, and letting you see and manage it all in one place.
