I never have, but I might consider it if the game was actually great. The money to hours played ratio is off the chart for a lot of great games - I mean fuck, if Skyrim was charged proportionally to how much playtime I’ve gotten out of it I should’ve paid $600. The problem is that most games are shite moneygrabs.
Just compressing the game files. They come as an installer you run. Sometimes they’ll come bundled with other goodies/mods/etc. A lot of her repacks also have language packs/4k textures as optional extras.
So the actual cracking/security breaking of the software was already done (fitgirl doesn’t crack software herself or at least that’s not what she’s offering), what Fitgirl does is that she compresses the cracked game down and reduces the file size so that it’s cheaper to transfer over the network and store on people’s machines. The savings can be upwards of dozens of GBs which translates into money and resources saved.
the extra compute compressing and decompressing might not make up for the transfers but it would be really hard to figure out your electricity delta, her electricity delta, the infrastructure, etc compared to the direct metering of data caps.
I’m not fucking paying $70 for a video game

I may not have any women in my life, but I know Fit Girl will never betray me.
Fit Girl is genuinely performing a public service. Not only are shitty games being given offline accesss, she’s compressing them for optimal archiving
The world is a better place of FitGirl’s efforts
What is a repack

Unpack a box full of gifts spaced apart loosely for presentation purposes, and then tetris them into a smaller box and ship that instead
Edit: Oh, I just got it – they teach you that in school huh?
