If you buy a copy of something,
then no one should be allowed to steal your copy away from you.
As long as you have the receipt to show that you own a copy of the game,
you should be allowed to play it any way you see fit.
I wish that was how it worked, but that’s not the digital world we live in.

Any way you see fit does not have to mean downloaded from official services.
I won't post links here,
but there are other means of getting the content you rightfully own.
It's not stealing if you already own a copy.
Pirating cracked copies of software you own a digital license to is absolutely not a good solution to go recommending people online as if it’s something that is also easy to do and won’t have ramifications.
