So I know the easy answer is from steam/gog/epic or what ever else but I can’t imagine all game repackers are doing this for financial or ethical reasons.
I do remembered one group in matrix telling me about a Russian site that uploads untouched games but can’t remember the name.
Any links to trust worthy sources?
P2P releases can come from anywhere. If you are worried about viruses and malware, it’s probably best to avoid them even though the danger is still very low.
Scene releases are almost always purchased legitimately by the group for cracking. The most popular repackers usually use scene releases as their source.
