Isn't that like 90% of the point of the repack? To heavily compress things and drastically reduce the download size of a game?
I thought 90% was defeating DRM and 10% was reducing download size. Doesn't matter how quick the download is if DRM blocks you from running the game.
I don't pirate games (any more) but my understanding is that FitGirl is one of the few crackers who can defeat denuvo, which means the only choice for pirates is repack.
FitGirl only repacks; he doesn't defeat Denuvo. The only crackers within the last twelve months or so to crack Denuvo have been MKDEV and EMPRESS, both of whom are no longer active in the scene.
Shit. Empress finally up and quit? Or got paid enough by denuvo?
Yes.
