What’s the best way to play pirated windows games on Linux?
Ever since I’ve migrated I stuck to emulation for game piracy cause it was pretty simple. Ive been trying to run some repacked games but I can’t get them to install properly.
I don’t see many people talk about this probably because most game pirates use windows if I had to guess.
Edit: i fixed my problem, yesterday When running the fitgirl installer it would only show me two drives ,c and z, which were my home and root folder respectively. I wanted to install my game to a bigger drive, but couldn’t find the option to and assumed it was a problem with wine or the installer. A few hours ago I searched for a bit and found out I can add a drive to wine via winecfg -> Drives -> add drives. I ran the Installer again and this time it saw my bigger 1tb drive and everything went smoothly from there, ran The installer, added the game on steam, ran the game, all good.
I install FG Dodi and Gnarly repacks and ElAmigos updates this way. I have only had weird bugs with ~5 that would only unpack in a Windows VM and 2 that needed native Windows (BG3 and Until Dawn) but tbh I have a feeling its an AMD issue not a wine issue
