Key piracy threat, that doesn’t crack games.

Then offer better downloads? FitGirl’s repacks exist because some people have incredibly shitty ISPs that impose harsh data caps with dogshit speeds. Downloading an uncompressed 70gb game is just not going to happen, what do these companies suggest people do? Purchase their games and never successfully download them?

Note: this is not about modding games to have muscle mommies or !fitmoe@lemmy.world characters.

If I can’t own it, you shouldn’t get anything from me.

Although I did buy the factorio DLC. They earned it.

The amount of hours of fun that game has given me, it was practically free anyways.
Looking forward to playing the DLC
