Thank you everybody, I went with Heroic Launcher

I'd like to log into my GoG account and click on "install game" from within the game store without having to manually download the installer, manually install the game, and then add it to the game store to act as a launcher (like steam does). Seems to defeat the purpose of a game store.

Purchasing the game on the web is fine, it's more the game management aspect I'm looking for. Does that exist?

    I second this. Heroic Launcher is fantastic and I may be wrong, but I believe purchasing GOG games within Heroic donates a portion to Heroic’s development.

    You can buy games straight from Heroic Launcher?? Wow!

    I'll give this a go. Thank you both @UntimedDiffusion@piefed.zip for the suggestion.

    Its basically a web browser in one of the tabs. I assume it injects Heroic's affiliate link.

    Yeah, there's a notice that "adtraction" is blocked if you have some sort of dns level ad blocking in place.
