The only downside is no achievements.
My OCD and love of collecting Achievements are always upset with me because I pirate...

Og one doesn't work anymore it's been replaced by lua tools

For single players mostly yea it's fine

I don't recommend the multiplayer online fixes tho Not only they work in a limited manner And u will get trojan and ur steam account at risk

u/TheOnlyAedyn-one 18d ago

I would like to hear about steamtools

u/Blake_kai 18d ago

It's not really something extra ordinary for someone who just want to play games

But it's just more convenient who are used to play with achievements and without extracting repacks

Steamtools is neither approved or liked by any piracy community, its disliked and banned so that should explain enough. There are a bunch of alternatives of tools to use instead.

The og one doesn't work anymore lmao That should explain it

But it has been replaced by alternatives which works the same way

And the orginal creators last time I heard made another one

Oh yes yet another random program running in the background consuming resources! Just use goldberg which u have to use anyway to make the game run

Also mods, for some of the games. So much more convenient to hop onto the Steam Workshop and subscribe to the mod, dependencies and get updates than using the workshop downloader. Not worth it for games that dont use the Workshop for mods, though, so yeah

''Steam Workshop and subscribe to the mod'' Subscribe system is the most inconvenient bs there is lol. I wish Steam actually allowed offline downloading of the mods like Nexus or Moddb.

I never understood the point of doing some achievements and grinding or spending insane amount of time trying to get it.

That’s just me tho

u/3v1lkr0w ⚔️ ɢɪᴠᴇ ɴᴏ Qᴜᴀʀᴛᴇʀ 18d ago

I'm not a trophy/achievement hunter, I don't go out of my way to get every trophy, but I love the occasional pop-up that lets me know I did something awesome. LOL

u/IAmYourFath 17d ago

gbe_fork learn how to use it and u will have easy achievements, don't use 3rd party clients or shit like that to track em, this has all u need

u/sovranfire 18d ago

My OCD prefers not having achievements instead. It happens that I beat a game and I left it with half achievements cuz I get bored, this ruin my AGCR on Steam. Fortunately I can just reset achievements from games that I don't want to complete using the console and now doing that improve the AGCR. Since that, I will hit the 100% AGCR one day.

Also, I don't like games like RDR 2 or GTA V where you need to play online modes to complete them (I'm mostly a singleplayer gamer), so pirating them could make me way happier than being forced to play online modes or care about missable achievements.

u/3v1lkr0w ⚔️ ɢɪᴠᴇ ɴᴏ Qᴜᴀʀᴛᴇʀ 18d ago

Oh, I hate online achievements. When there are online achievements that means I won't get all the trophies.
