Moving to Linux soon, and wondering how pirated games work with it. I know about proton with steam and lutris for most bought games, but how would I run pirated windows games over there?

        If you can’t click 3-5 links within the megathread rentry link and search for one the game you want on lets say 1337, then maybe paying is more your speed

          If you live in one of those countries that go after pirate torrenters, (i.e. the united states) then you either shell out money for a VPN or get rate limited by one of the shitty free ones.

          I went to 1337 and literally all I got was ads.

                I don’t know what else to tell you, you go to 1337, search for tony hawk, select the upload that’s for the 1+2 remake and open the magnet link or torrent file with your torrent client of choice. that’s all the spoon feeding you’ll get.

                  I don’t need “spoon feeding”. I just need a torrent site that doesn’t have literally every button redirect to ads.
