VampireHunterB, angielski well if they´re trying to get me to stop pirating and buy games even with drm in them well good job. I´d rather pay extra to avoid this stupid drama. Seriously all I wanted was some free games not seeing them showing off their hate boners for the trans community.
We get it you secretly wanna fuck trans people, you´re just too chickenshit to admit it.
“sighhhhh”
ILikeBoobies, angielski What drama? Some random footnotes in an .nfo file? How does it effect you at all?
doggle, angielski Footnotes? Lol, it’s nearly the entire .nfo!
It’s generally a good idea to check the included materials whenever you’re using any software, including cracks. If those materials are packed with several paragraphs of pointless name calling it absolutely effects the end-user
dansity, angielski I’m out of the loop. Is there a tl;dr version of what has happened so far?
AnarchoYeasty, angielski I like how everyone is concerned about the trans slurs but completely ignores them dropping the n word. Sounds about white for the crowd here I guess
BrandoCalrissian9229, angielski yeah that’s pretty crazy lmao
B3_CHAD, angielski Man Voksi got fucked for absolutely no reason(reddit.com/…/voksi_denies_having_any_relation_wit…), let the man live his life. Skidrow and Empress both are Idiots.
sourcery, angielski I did not have defending DRM on my bingo card. Transphobia is especially vile though.
sounddrill, angielski Defending the intent behind DRM is fine, but DRM is the worst
uriel238, angielski Nope. The problem is DRM that works is always abused. Remember the unskippable ads on DVDs and Blu-Rays? Always.
SilentStorms, angielski Jesus, everyone involved in this shit is so deranged. God I hope the “Scene” dies out with the next generation, just chill people releasing cracks without following a tome of rules and schizoposting.
Goodtoknow, angielski Is there some correlation with this insane low level understanding of software engineering and a mental health issues? A lot of the scene seems to be like this and good old Terry Davis (rest in peace you racist)
AtomicPurple, angielski Unironically, yes. Multiple studies dating back years have found a link between high intelligence and various mental health issues.
There was one particular paper I read about a decade ago, where researchers surveyed a bunch of collage students to find demographic trends based on their preferred operating system. From what I recall, the demographics of Windows users were not too far off from those of the university as whole, and Mac users were similar, aside from women being significantly over-represented. Linux users on the other hand, were almost all men, and nearly every mental health issue imaginable was over-represented by a huge margin.
WeirdGoesPro, angielski I use Linux, and my wife’s head in the freezer says I’m perfectly sane.
pitl, angielski As a CS dude who uses Linux and is around way too many people who seem like they genuinely are in need of some therapy on a daily basis, this entirely checks out, tbh.
I’m now mildly worried for my own mental state
bobotron, angielski It’s ok amigo, from this one comment I’ve read of yours you seem like you are just fine
gamer, angielski That’s funny, but I’m betting my nutsack that you just made that up, or it’s copy pasta.
Seytoux, angielski So… no disrespect but, are all scenes/crackers really creepy and angry people then?
sounddrill, angielski Crackers, maybe but most repacking and more scenes are super chill
Seytoux, angielski Don’t get me wrong, even thought I don’t pirate as much as I once did in my younger days I’m super appreciative of the work they do, free mostly if I understand it correctly. But some of the things they say on this nfos (mostly homophobic slurs and name calling) are super out of place, but at the end to each their own lol
sounddrill, angielski They say denuvo is insanely hard to consistently keep cracking
I don’t think a sane person would enjoy it
YoMismo, angielski Personally I don’t give a fuck about all this drama, it’s like a cockfight for me, but a scene group defending DRM !? Finally may be they got paid to avoid denuvo releases…!?
laylawashere44, angielski I guess the takeaway is that Empress is deranged weird and Skidrow are creepy weird.
3TH4Li4, angielski Seems like no cracker or repacker is ever mentally sane. Like, defending DRM and trans-slurs? Really? Not like Empress is normal either but wtf
CaptainBasculin, angielski Most of the old scene thought of cracking DRM in games as a challange within themselves, and did it for the competition. Skidrow’s thoughts align with this mindset. You can’t blame skidrow for that.
DrJenkem, angielski I have half a mind to start releasing cracks just so there’s 1 cracker who isn’t a fucking bigot.
EDIT: btw, didn’t Voksi get arrested back in 2018? And EMPRESS started releasing cracks in like 2019. So are we to believe that Voksi goes to jail for a year, and immediately comes out and starts cracking again, all without receiving another visit from the feds? Doubt.
EDIT2: lol here’s Voksi’s response: lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/2218172
Fuck EMPRESS and SKIDROW, SKIDROW for dragging Voksi into the petty bullshit and both of them for their childish, edgleord bullshit.
yukichigai, angielski I have half a mind to start releasing cracks just so there’s 1 cracker who isn’t a fucking bigot.
I have had this exact thought, but that would undoubtedly eat up what little free time I have these days. I don't have as much of it as I used to.
Hudell, angielski And that’s why all those folks have mental issues. Having the skill is not enough, you need to pretty much dedicate your whole life to “the craft”
sounddrill, angielski No need to crack games but hear me out: fork goldberg emu and maintain
gamer, angielski I don’t get why people here are expecting pirates of all people to be polite company.
FeelzGoodMan420, angielski I don’t pirate games but after reading this, I DEFINITELY will not pirate games. If these clowns are the ones cracking/repacking the games then I do NOT trust the games to not contain malware/bullshit/whatever. Maybe I’m being paranoid but I wouldn’t go anywhere near software put out by these people. They sound like the types to include malware just to frame the other group or whatever. Idk. These people are morons.
miracleorange, angielski The only repacks I trust are FitGirl’s, mostly because they’re compressed to all hell and she’s always just… kept her head down.
Aatube, angielski There are a lot of other legit crackers besides these two
FeelzGoodMan420, angielski I thought I read there’s only like 1 that does DRM cracking anymore. That’s not the case?
totallynotfbi, angielski This is for a specific DRM called Denuvo. Most games don’t have it, but the big titles do
FeelzGoodMan420, angielski Is there only 1 that does denuvo?
ram, angielski Anymore? Yes. Used to be more, but at this point it’s basically just the shittiest person of the bunch.
Neato, angielski What the fuck? First they call out Empress for actually being a man from Bulgaria. Then they drop a transphobic slur. Then they defend DRM and publishers.
I can understand supporting the developers and promoting buying software you enjoy when you can. But one of the big motivations for cracking software is software preservation and removing DRM that harms legit user experiences. So I say again, wtf?
520, angielski Raging people seldom make much sense or consistency.
vsis, angielski I didn’t understand the DRM part neither.
rikudou, angielski There’s this thing where they pretend they actually do it to be first and not because they want people to download their cracks. And that’s how you get the crazy talk where they pretend they’re pro-DRM.
Infiltrated_ad8271, angielski The worst thing is that, compared to empress, they were quite moderate. I don't know what's wrong with them or why they're all so mad... but I love the drama, I'm looking forward to the next episode.
sounddrill, angielski 🍿🍿
DefinitelyNotBirds, angielski I don’t really understand how can a pirate defend DRM
people_are_cute, angielski DRM cracking is treated as a sport by the Scene. They don’t actually care about pirate philosophies and such, only the challenge.
rikudou, angielski They like to pretend so.
Maho, angielski Seriously? their attack against an asshole transphobe is… calling her tr*nny and being exactly as shitty as her?
Aesthesiaphilia, angielski That's why it's so juicy, they're all such terrible people we don't have to pick sides
ninjan, Literally Jersey Shore for nerds… Why do we primates love trashy drama so much???
azayrahmad, angielski I don’t even pirate software anymore, just here to pass the popcorn.
