People pirate Steam Games anyway. Stating that people pirate too much to make it viable is purely opinion and not based on numbers. Sure, for AAA games you get 2 to 3 months without a cracked version, but this stops afterward. For non-AAA games, the steam version is usually crackable from day-1.
Seriously, for cracking steam games, all it takes is to drop a single DLL inside the game's folder. It can't get simpler than that.
Yes, that obviously only works for offline games, but yeah, cracking Steaam games is as easy as cracking any other game, maybe even easier
That is cracking, but one still has to download the files from somewhere before they can crack it. Finding legitimate files is still time consuming.
Yeah, but you just need anyone who bought the game on Steam, a friend or co-worker for example, not some shady website.
You want to avoid shady websites for the game download, and shady websites for the crack download. You can do both of this with Steam
