I am interested in how pirates on the internet (which i am not) would get there hands on the files to a game, just, for example, Baldur’s Gate 3, without torrenting? Now, I have heard tell of a place where these nefarious no-gooders would do this, for example gog-games.to. But, once they have acquired the file, what steps to these pirates take next? I have heard that .bin files come with these illegal files? How would one approach using those bin files? All out of curiosity of course. Thank you!
“there hands”
“nefarious no-gooders”
“to these pirates”
“illegal files”
“of course”
Am I reading an AI trying to sound hip and trendy?
It’s supposed to be their hands, not there, haven’t yet seen AI making mistakes on purpose but I guess it could if prompted
I’m assuming it’s an 80 yo on drugs.

If you’re acquiring a GOG release somewhere, it should be the regular, normal installer because GOG releases don’t have DRM that needs cracking. Someone just needs to first get it legally from GOG and then share it somewhere. If you scan it with antivirus and it finds something, get rid of it and try another source.
Otherwise without torrenting, you’d have to find a place with direct downloads.
edit: though you may want to wait longer for them to patch more bugs etc, because if you don’t have a source to download the GOG updates only, downloading 100+ GB each time is a pain.
Thank you!
The archive you download from gog-games includes some data files and a setup.exe. You launch the setup, tell it where to install, and wait. Once it’s done, you launch the game from the start menu, and enjoy. There’s no magic to it.
oh, fascinating! thank you, sir.
Keep in mind that the files received from this site are identical to the files you would get on the official store. That’s why it’s so beautiful.
wow, pirates are so crafty! thanks for all the help, i am super new to researching piracy
