- paint 3y agoThis seems like a weird hill to die on? yes it's obvious that rockstar (apparently) uploaded a cracked version of their game to steam. It's not obvious why they chose to do that (ie "what is going on")
- PrimeMcFly 3y agoI'm not dying on any hill, I think that's a weird comment to make, let alone to make an issue out of my original comment at all. The way the comment was phrased read as though they didn't understand what had happened, not that they didn't understand why. Especially since no one has an answer to that, so no one can offer an explanation.

- PrimeMcFly 3y agoThat's not a particularly productive reply. Thanks for your input, I guess.

- PrimeMcFly 3y agoYes. And what would you consider "keep malding" to be? In any case, I edited my reply to remove the snark.

- barbs 3y agoNot necessarily. You could understand that a cracked PC game means its copy-protection has been removed by someone illegally but not have a detailed enough understanding of the process to understand the tweet. Personally I'm not familiar with Razor1911 so I wouldn't have understood the significance of that string in the hexdump if it weren't for the context provided by other comments here.
- lolinder 3y agoI know what cracked means, but this didn't communicate anything to me. It seems that you'd need to both know what cracked means and know who "RAZOR 1911" is in order to get what's going on here from context alone.
