I currently have a load of pirated games and I'm considering moving my systems to Linux cuz Windows is ass. Would this make it difficult to run pirated games?

You could download pre-installed games (e.g. from SteamRIP.net, or Steam Depots from cs.rin.ru)

You can even get uncracked game folders from cs.rin.ru and then crack them yourself (assuming only steam drm) using something like „steam auto cracker“ or whatever that tool is called.

That's what I meant by "Steam Depots".

No prob anyway ... You explained the meaning of "Steam Depot" to those who may not know.
