Maybe the pirated version does work on linux while the official doesn't. For example if you wnat to play Rust on linux you have to play on non-EAC servers which are a lot more common on the cracked versions (for anyone trying to run official version of Rust, you can still connect to cracked servers that have their own Anti-Cheat, like any ArabRust server for example)

Right, I get using a cracked version for compatibility, and tried to convey that on my first post. I've done the same thing, especially with older games.
