You should be able to add it to your steam library as a non-steam game and then in game options in Steam set up using Proton as long as you have Proton enabled for all games, not just verified games.
I recommend Heroic Games Launcher for GOG games, it's much nicer to use, IMO.
You can log into GOG through Lutris too, and install and launch games through that.
That doesn't allow you to update the game though, so it doesn't work out great for new games with frequent updates and a large download file size.
I have only used it to download older games, so I have no idea how it handles updates.
@Dubious_Fart @Raincloud I get this error when I play some games from GOG through heroic which happens on steam deck. Also, controller support is not great on gog through heroic. So, this makes me stay on steam to play games. Anyway, I hear that steam has drm free games so if BG3 and Star field are drm free then it doesn’t matter if it’s on steam or gog.
