If you have some rust projects, don't forget to run this:

balooctl6 config add excludeFilters target

to exclude the rust target directories from the file index.

each one contains thouthands of files and even having a couple of projects explodes file index size into hundreds of megabytes and makes the indexer get stuck, sometimes for hours, without doing this.

you may have to purge the index and re-index everything for the changes to take into effect sometimes:

 balooctl6 purge
 balooctl6 resume

(also i believe this should be the default)

As the game requires online features, Epic Online Services ("EOS Overlay") must be installed and activated, and "Offline Mode" must be disabled in order for the game to boot! (otherwise it gets stuck on Step 1)

Please note that this is not the default!
Epic online services must be installed manually;
Offline Mode is enabled in Heroic Launcher and Playnite's Legendary plugin by default

Instructions for Heroic Launcher:

Install "EOS Overlay":

• Settings -> Advanced, scroll down to "EOS Overlay"
• Click Install (You can ignore any errors, as long as "Check for updates" button turns green)

Make sure that the game is not in Offline mode:

• Right click the game -> Settings
• Make sure that "Run game offline" option is disabled

Instructions for Playnite (With Legendary Launcher plugin):

Install "EOS Overlay":

• Add-ons (F9)
• Extension settings -> Libraries -> Legendary (Epic)
• Advanced -> EOS Overlay -> Install

Disable offline mode:

• Right click the game -> "Legendary Launcher settings"
• Make sure that "Offline mode" is disabled

if everything is set up correctly, you should be able to bring up the Epic Games overlay menu by pressing Shift+F3, like on the screenshot below:
