[–] ours@lemmy.film 23 points 3 years ago (1 child) Is it piracy? He owns a license for the game. Are Ubisoft or Rockstart Games pirates for using scene cracks themselves? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 520@kbin.social 7 points 3 years ago* Is it piracy? He owns a license for the game. Technically it's not. They don't even need a new copy of the game, just the cracked .exe file.
