Yeah, The Division games are online. So can’t pirate them. But they very often go on sale (on Steam) for really cheap €5-10 euros. The problem is Ubisoft launcher.

I’m not sure about content being inaccessible though.

• Persona 5 Royal
• The Division 1
• Metaphor: ReFantazio

I already bought Persona 5 Royal a couple of years ago on PS4 (Royal + DLC of persona on sale). Really want to replay the game on my PC with 60FPS but refuse to pay another €25-60 euros for it, besides it has Denuvo. I might purchase it when, it’s at least €20 or below.

Similar thing with The Division 1, would like to play the game again and it’s only €5 euro on Steam right now but the Ubisoft launcher is what rubs me the wrong way. Plus also already bought the game when it was just released on PS4. Still debating for this one since it’s only €5.

For Metaphor: ReFantazio, it’s still way to pricey and it has Denuvo. So I will just wait it out until either Denuvo removed or an actual good sale happens.

Yes, I’m a pirate (you might notice due to the instance, I’m on). I know we can emulate Persona 5 Royal and there’s a way to play the full game of Metaphor: ReFantazio. But since both of them are immensely big story games, I would like to have them ‘legally’ (cloud saves, Steam wise). Plus another reason is; my backlog is quite huge, got at least 45 games still to play (with only half of the weekends to actually game)

EeveeSpotify is still working for on IOS though and I hope that it stays that way.

Saddens me. I mean we are starting to lose good sites; RARBG, ZippyShare and now maybe TorrentGalaxy (and 1ficher?).

Exactly this, has multiple times that people in the chat have solutions to issues I had.

I wonder and hope there will be a replacement for the chat system.

their games are mediocre at best.

This is very subjective. A lot of people (including myself) really like their games and it’s also a bit of nostalgia.

There’s a good reason their games sell well* and get pirated a lot.

I, personally, dislike Nintendo as a company. However, I do have to say that their games in my opinion are good. See, subjective.

What happened? I, unfortunately, barely see any posts from this community.

I use(d) Pinterest to collect fan-dom stuff and wallpapers. Each board for a movie, series, anime or game.

Nowadays I just search for a wallpaper and hope it isn’t AI, download it and leave the platform again. There’s no use on actually using the platform for what its intended (pinning, saving and sharing). Almost anything you do gets flagged by their AI bot for “inappropriate, adult or violence”.

I mean, they flagged a plant as “adult” content and smiling Luffy face as “violence”. Oh I forgot, their platform is just one giant advertisement crap now. 3/4 of the screen will be taken up by a video/gif of an advertisement.

I have been searching for one, for a year or two. Ever since they keep removing pins for the most mundane things or literal no actual reason.

Sudachi was an actual fork and really in development by the developer. However from what, I remember, he quit developing it because of continuously threats, insults and no appreciation from the community.

Do you have other suggestions for promising successor forks?

I have been told about GreemDev which is a fork of Ryujinx and still being in development. But I honestly, don’t know much about it (have not been keeping myself up to date with it).

Though so far both the original Yuzu and Ryujinx are still working pretty great. Some small issues happens like crashes with Mario & Luigi brothership but people found work-arounds for that on Ryujinx; changing CPU to ‘‘software’’ for Mario & Luigi brothership (which hits the FPS a bit but overall stability and no crashes) and then set it back to its default for other games.

which now are in the hands of Nintendo, used to monitor which users use emulators.

No clue about Nintendo using its data to monitor users who use(d) emulators. They rather go after the developers of emulators (I think) unless someone is stupid enough to stream pirated games, tell viewers how to get them illegally and provoke Nintendo like this guy; Jesse Keighin, aka Every Game Guru.

Should I take this to mean Suyu hasn’t been and isn’t going to actually have updates and continued development?

Yeah, see it like that. If it ever will actually get updated, you will hear about it due to all the drama they will be causing. But ever since Yuzu went down and they took the source code, nothing major has been done and only drama been caused.

Basically making it the same as the version of Yuzu I still have installed on my PC (which was the last official update before the takedown)?

Yeah, exactly.

Suyu is just a renamed Yuzu.

As soon as Yuzu wrecked by Nintendo; They took the source code, changed the name to Suyu and then done little to no changes to it.

They also caused lots of drama within their own Discord. One of the people who were involved, left because of threats, issues with the “developers” and overall childish behavior.

I’m still able to use Spotify with Spicetify and its Adblock. Same about EeveeSpotify for IOS.

Now that I know a bit more about security and obfuscation I rather not use any pirated games/software anymore

Then don’t and pay every streaming service, game and software.

If they know how to crack/reverse engineer some complicated stuff, you can be sure they add some shady stuff in it.

The most pointless, baseless and factless argument ever.

They need somehow a way to earn there living expanses ? It’s a service we think it’s free but nothing comes without a counterpart.

If you genuinely think crackers earn lots of money through cracking games, you sure are uneducated.

I have this problem KissAnime shutdown and lost half of the list. Personally decided back then to do it manually on Excel.

Took a bit of time but very much worth it (imo). No stress of losing it due to shutdowns. It’s also easy to track how many shows you watched, dropped or want to watch because of the formulas you can use within Excel.

For me, personally, it’s more about the focus of votes vs actual discussion. I’m worried it would turn the tides and make people much more focused on the votes than actual discussion. It might make it echo chamber-ish.

I recently disabled showing votes on my side (through Voyager app). Even if I get downvoted a hundred times over, if I just get a respectful discussion with links to (trustable) sources. I’m all alright with that.

I rather not. If it does happen, I’ll just rss Lemmy and stop using my account. I like Lemmy the way it is because there’s not much focus on votes and more on actual discussion.

When it was just released on PC, I saw on Reddit that it probably won’t happen. Apparently Empress does not like anime games and therefore refuses to crack them.

I, myself, have been secretly hoping for it as well though. Got the game on PS5 (ps4 version) and refuse to pay money again for the game (unless it gets a heavy-heavy sale for like 10 bucks or something).

I honestly see no reason to use Reddit for its Piracy Megathread. Lemmy’s user base is much more friendly, helpful and the Megathread here is the same (if not better) organized than there.

Not only that, I remember there was quite some problems among the mods on Reddit. So I’m not surprised something like this happened. Once there’s a slight fracture, it’ll slowly but steadily get broken into pieces entirely.

I don’t see much decent content on both Piracy and PiratedGames subreddit anyway. Majority is memes, ‘is this safe’ and spam posts about empress.
