I also have curiosity. I found steam so much easier than piracy so I never tried. Except in the one case of Riddick. Couldn't buy it so I installed a cracked version on Lutris. From memory it just worked. Also it's great, totally worth a playthrough if you haven't already.

This topic hurts my soul...
I've noticed your posts a couple of times now. Just pay for your fucking games, especially from the companies that still have a heart for gaming. You get a game that most likely will work on Linux, they get paid for their work.
Hopefully if/when you produce anything, people that would consume it don't have the same mentality.
Try use portproton from flatpak, i run pirated cyberpunk perfectly fine on my machine.
See your inbox...
That account is less than a day old and you should definitely not do whatever it is they tell you to do
I just channel them to existing resources. Do you think I'd openly contribute to piracy with my main account?
I think you intended to adress @Jozzo@lemmy.world. Sorry for the ping, btw.
FWIW, I think they're afraid I might hook you up to something bad: ask you to click/download unsafe stuff, etc. I think their concern is legit. But, as I said earlier, I'm just channeling you to known resources.
I think there's almost consensus on piracy being bad. I don't want to tarnish my otherwise fine-ish 'credibility'.
Even if that were the case, you wouldn't find many Lemmy users promote piracy from cool sources like GOG, Steam and other legit game devs like e.g. Team Cherry.
Furthermore, if anything, Lemmy is more privacy-oriented and anti-slop. And while the tankie-culture is present, I would not say it's anti-corp necessarily. And definitely not against supporting earnest (game) devs.
