Do you guys think Rockstar did this, or a Valve employee? If you’ve ever seen the interview with the GOG CEO, he mentions how they routinely have to use these files they find on the internet to get the games to work.
Who’s going to prosecute this, Razor, for copyright? Oh, wait.
I’d just be a bit more leery if there’s some latent malware in there. But, then again, I wonder if older malware even still works in the new version of Windows. Not that they patched some hole, but more that MS has just evolved Windows and now some things that the MW used to be in one spot are in a new spot, or just outright don’t exist.
Definitely rockstar indeed manhunt, another of their games, has the same razor hex sign in the game files, and I’m pretty much sure rockstar did this, because manhunt is unplayable on steam because all the antipiracy measure in it are trigghered, and the funny thing is that is not happening because of the crack but because rockstart added the steam drm in a non code section of the game that trip a Data Execution Prevention.
Valve won’t touch game files, way too much liability and not nearly enough incentive given the money machine that steam is. This one is definitely Rockstar, and I’m betting they just don’t have the capability of compiling the pc version anymore.

So if i get manhunt from a trusted repacker theres a good chance it will work better than the legit one?
Yes

Valve just manages the storefront, and provides a OS/libraries to improve capability on Linux OS with proton.
