Never heard of it. Seems it has the potential to convince some gamers for Linux migration.

I did discover after posting this, that some WINE-related files Lutris installs has the potential for messing things up if copied to the wrong file system. I learned the hard way that they have to be kept away from Windows compatible file systems, such as FAT32.
This didn't prevent Witcher 3 from now being installed in Linux from GOG.
The paradox is that, right now, it's Steam that offers the most user friendly way to download games to Linux. Each and every Steam game is made Linux compatible through Proton (Proton is based on WINE), although there is no guarantee that all of them will work, or work flawlessly. For now I've tried one game, "Banished", which at first worked without sound, but where I eventually got the sound to work after finding a solution online.
Linux has been fast moving towards becoming more compatible with Windows games the past 1-2 years. I'm hoping, and expecting, that that within another couple of years, one will need to do less troubleshooting to get things to work properly.
