I currently have a load of pirated games and I’m considering moving my systems to Linux cuz Windows is ass. Would this make it difficult to run pirated games?

Not at all, I have been running Linux for years now without any issues. Lutris and Heroic Launcher covers all my pirated gaming needs.
nope
Lutris or Bottles or … ?
also OS is Ubuntu, arch, Manjaro, Nobara or … ?Bazzite + Lutris works really well
You can also play around with things like ProtonGE-custom, there’s a very useful tool called ProtonUp-Qt that helps you install it, among with other useful stuff
Some people also reported that running (pirated, Windows-exclusive) games in the Heroic launcher works pretty well
Some repacks (fitgirl and dodi and sometimes others) occasionally decide not to install ever in any linux system with wine or proton (they’ll crash at some point in the installation), and then you’ll have to install them first in a windows vm and then move them over to linux. It’s not really a rare issue, like 50/50, depends on the repack and its compression settings and just the luck of the day. Games that are already installed which you’re just moving over work perfectly 99% of the time. I recommend lutris.
You could download pre-installed games (e.g. from SteamRIP.net, or Steam Depots from cs.rin.ru)
You can even get uncracked game folders from cs.rin.ru and then crack them yourself (assuming only steam drm) using something like „steam auto cracker“ or whatever that tool is called.
That’s what I meant by “Steam Depots”.
oops sorry
No prob anyway … You explained the meaning of “Steam Depot” to those who may not know.
