I’ve been playing BG3 since I was first able to find a torrent, using the fitgirl repack, and I think I’m going to buy this one. To play online of course, but also to support the devs for making a damn decent game.

Would really like not to lose my progress - think it’ll transfer without any problems?

They do. Also you can play the pirated version online, there’s no DRM. Good on you for buying it though, it’s the kind of game it’s good to support

I did this with doom eternal. I remember it was a bit of a pain to go legit after but thankfully someone made a tool and instructions. I think I beat half the game first. Then I bought doom 2016 after that.

I what why they can’t bring back the old “shareware” style money where am initial segment or episode of a game is free so people can see what they like. For open world games maybe just have a limited portion of the map.

It’s a DRM-free game so I don’t see why not. When the pirated copy is literally the same file as the Steam copy it makes sense that it would work.

I don’t see why not, but If it doesn’t you can just pick up where you left off with the original install.
