Run it through proton. Import into steam from add non-steam program, or lutris
I can run pirated steam games on steam? that doesnt sound right.
I do it all the time. Just add it to steam as a non steam app and select the proton version you want to use. It will run just fine.
EDIT: If you need to install first, just add the installer as a non steam program, run it, install normally and then chang the path of the exe and the working folder to those of the installed game
I feel the need to underline this part because removing the setup.exe entry and the adding the installed exe doesn't work. The entire virtual drive gets deleted when removing setup.exe. This makes the procedure a bit more complicated than it should be but it's needed when it has to go through Steam because of Steam Deck Game Mode.
