this.. also, you can usually remove the crypto crap. i also downloaded something and had the same. i found out by checking the task scheduler. from there i saw the obvious crap, removed it and let malware bytes remove any possible leftovers. just some random wisdom from me
>>
>>720654918
this might sound really fucking stupid but the reason i stopped pirating PC games is because i got all of my accounts hacked twice while trying to download Minecraft Storymode on my usual trusted sites. For whatever reason they all had the same virus and since then im too much of a pussy to pirate anything released after the PS3.

Thankfully i know how to make the costumer service actually work so i recovered everything in a few days, but the dread i felt when i got 10 emails confirming i got the password and email change of most accounts is something that has yet to leave my body. (btw thank you steam guard for preventing my steam account from getting hacked <3)

>>720655475
sorry anon, not everyone's a raging fag like u

>>720655949
thats because a lot of windows (especially11) the windows are webview shit and likely gpu accelerated, so the spike is normal. just like cpu. you could try open the old one with taskmgr -d to see if you also get a gpu spike. (if on win11)
>>
What's the point of repacks anyway? I thought they were for thirdies and poorfags, but they wouldn't have the download speeds or the specs to benefit from them over just torrenting the full fucking thing. It's not like they live in a country where pirating gets you fucked by your ISP either.

Piracy only makes sense in two cases. If you can't buy the game because it's not available and if you absolutely can't afford it. But risking malware to save an insignificant amount of money is always a retarded idea. It's like taking a piece of free gum from a stranger to save a dollar and then acting surprised when you wake up in an alley with a blown out asshole.

Its not a bot post, but I type for an audience that is far less brown and young .
If you had the slightesr bit of intelligence you would be able to deduce that I had probably typed out some joke websites and then decided not to do that, instead sharing an anecdote.
The fact that your generation is going to suffer immensely from its own genetics and upbringing pleases me greatly. I have no influence over you, and I did not spawn any of you.

>Why spend the $50 if I don’t have to?
This week i pulled some cash from the ATM. Had like $300 in my wallet. Last night i misplaced my wallet, legit couldn't find it. Looked everywhere and you know what upset me the most? The hassle of making a dozen phone calls cancelling cards, getting new IDs. Not the money, i wouldn't miss that but potentially spending hours on errants. But then i found my wallet between the driver seat and the center console. What i'm trying to say is that i'd rather spend money needlessly than waste hours. But I'm also the kind of guy who would spend $500 on a game if it guaranteed that it's as polished and complete on release, as it otherwise would be after dozens of updates and years on the market.
>>
>>720657769
>risking
There is no risk, it is entirely user error.
Again, downloading software, now called "piracy" by children, browns and other reddit adjacents, is 100% safe and trustworthy and streamlined now.
If you are going to include all humans together and use the LCD as the baseline for what is or isnt safe or smart, then I am going to include Abos and remove any ability for us to discuss technology.

>>720658829
You are a fool.
I have carried a wallet for 25 years and never lost it, nor have I lost the keys I had for 23, the phone I had for 23.
Thats just addressing your ability to lose it, not your idiotic reaction, or bigger issues like your willing participation in the usury system.
You consider yourself an adult?
How do you guys cope when a man like me is around you and breaking down your little mental toothpick castles with his objective superiority.
I am objectively superior, vastly so really when you consider the amount of time and energy wasted (Im extrapolating a bit to your broader life).
Im ok with you being what you are, and righfully recognizing that the below average are fundamentally lesser and different beings than you below a certain point, not just a little less sharp.
It stands to reason that men like me who are essentially flawless in so many ways-none of it relying on money or connections/opportunity- because of our minds, who live fundamentally higher and greater lives that are moral, rational, and efficient, should be considered as a distinctly seperate class of "human" than the "normal people" and the majority that are clearly just gene tampered animals.

I can appreciate what you’re getting at. But frankly, anon, a boo-boo like accidentally installing a GPU miner isn’t the giant cocksucker of a headache that dealing with losing all of your IDs is. You’d better believe I’d also be pissed about losing the $300. Losing the $300 would be the icing on the cake.

Just use the windows version of the game with ge-proton. As for linux builds, some people usually share those on rin. I don't get why anyone'd outside of third worlders with data caps would use fitgirl since the decompression takes 3x as much as just downloading the game files would.

you may have to check the 2gb limit in the installer. they've always worked fine for me, although i noticed that if i uncheck anything in the installation options it'll just get stuck at 0.1%. johncena141 makes linux specific releases though - you could check his first.
>>
>>720662612
Use wine-staging instead of stable and ge-proton instead of regular proton. And if your distro is not bleeding edge some packages might be outdated. And better to just use portable builds instead of fitgirl, more convenient imo.

Instead of installers just download the game files themselves with the crack applied. Those are usually called portable releases. Plenty of those on rutracker or on rin if you want direct download, basically what >>720664587 said.
>Arch btw, I update pacman daily
Huh, pretty weird then. I'm on arch too but I use wine-staging and didn't have a problem with any installer. And ge-proton runs basically every vidya I throw at it, too. Except for Muramasa, that was a pain to get running.

If those useful sites were smart they'd also rebrand themselves and pretend to be women.

Pussy rules the world, and we are in an age where you can just pretend to have a pussy and normies will nod along because they all have toxoplasmosis and it makes them retarded and submissive to threats.
