So my understanding is that most/all online games will try to authenticate and therefore won’t allow you to access online content, right? I saw one torrent host advise blocking program from getting online or communicating thru steam.
I’ve wanted to snag Overwatch e.g. but was worried about this.
Speaking of Steam, I saw some “steam codes” or something that allow you to get a game through steam. Any risks associated with this?
Sorry for confusion, I had these thoughts like a week ago
Edit: thanks for the answers, comrades. Happy pirating!
Steam codes would only be a risk if they were stolen or obtained from a hacked account. So there is a risk of an account ban if you’re caught
Overwatch is Blizzard, not Valve, and you need to authenticate through Battle.net to access it
Not to mention that Blizzard is controlled by the chinese government, so as a leftist, I would proudly purchase their content. c/shitliberalssay
Exactly why when everyone was whining about Blizzard being owned by the PRC, I was excited because then all the people overloading WoW Classic would leave and I could be supporting socialism with Chinese characteristics
No but really thanks for the feedback. Not to mention that my Steam account has payment info so I’ll definitely going to make a new one before fucking with that
