I hate you Microsoft
Exact same thing happened to me. Still salty and refuse to play it again
Agreed. And pirating it is now more difficult because of the shitty garbage movie that made a billion dollars. Plus I don’t know that I can play with my partner on a pirated copy.
Wait the movie actually worked?
Ouah, this really is the moronest timeline
Budget of 150m
Made 950m
It’s very disheartening.
You can play with your partner on a pirated copy if you connect to a server without authentication or host one yourself
Sick, thank you! I’ve only ever played on servers I’ve hosted so that works great!
Set "online-mode" to false in the config and then it'll work
If the game has you host servers yourself, you can pretty much always use a pirated copy. If they could detect the piracy on your computer anyway they would already be blocking you from playing. If you connect to a server they host then they could have extra verification, but if you're hosting it then it's not going to be anything that isn't already being checked to prevent piracy.
It's really easy. I use SKLauncher and a dedicated server. You need to disable some player verification setting on the server but that's it.
Try Luanti. If you haven't been playing MC recently you honestly may not even notice the difference
You can also play co-op with a single PC nucleus-coop.github.io/
Oooohhh, never knew about that tool, looks awesome!
[email protected] is a great open source alternative—especially if you played Minecraft a long time ago, and if you refuse to play Microsoft’s Minecraft.
Vintage Story is an excellent game, worth checking out.
