So i run most if not all of my GOG and Itch Games via Lutris which i am quite happy with :D
But sadly i just get the “Stock” Executeable Icon instead of the Games Icon :(
Also yes due to the my Icon Theme Set it does look different but eitherway is that not the Correct Icon for the Game :(
Is there a better Way than downloading and changing the Icon for each Game manually? :(

    That’s been an issue since at least 2018, supposedly due to the lack of icoutils integration.

    You’re stuck using workarounds as far as I know, but I haven’t used Lutris in a while. Heroic took over from Lutris for me.

      i did try Heroic recently but i just found it too Clunky for me to use in the Sense of its UI sadly :(
      Also i dont like using Electron really >.>
      Do you by chance know of some Workaround that is maybe even automated to a degree? :0
      Best Thing i found so far is editing the .desktop File and extracting the icon from its exe using icoutils which is kinda combersume and annoying to do manually :P

        I’m not a fan of electron either but the sad truth of the matter is that I could not get Lutris to do what Heroic did do for me without issue. Lutris might need more developers to integrate icoutils in a way which could help you and others, but it doesn’t seem like anyone is in a hurry to code that together right now.

        You could write a bash script to do the actions you’re now doing manually? Bash is not too difficult to learn. Most of the syntax is human-readable and there are plenty of resources to go around to help you learn the basics.
