Hi All.

I bought It Takes Two through Steam a while ago but only got around to installing it recently. I now realise it uses EA’s launcher which is a big piece of shit. Add is some issues linking my EA account to my Steam account and I’m done with it.

It’s been a while since I pirated any games, it used to just involve a key gen or copying a few modified files into the right directories.

These days I see whole ‘repacks’ from fit girls and skid rows.

Is there anything I can do with the game I’ve already downloaded or do I need to download a repack from someone?

Thanks In Advance.

    I do miss the days when you could just download a keygen and get something licensed. Nowadays most keygens are just virus/malware installation packages unfortunately, with a few exceptions. To be honest it’s probably easier and safer to just use one of the repacks from a trusted source since they are ‘precracked’ and that work has been done for you.

      Cracking my legitimate copy of StarCraft just so I could play the game without the CD was how I started my piracy adventure.

        Something interesting I discovered about StarCraft back in Highschool, all CDs can be bypassed with a CD Key of all 3s. Like just 3333333333333333333333

    You can try using an origin emulator to crack/bypass EA’s launcher. Here is one on cs.rin.ru that you can use https://cs.rin.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=115335. It should work by replacing files from your game with ones from the emulator and filling out any required info in the config file if any. Hope it works for you and saves you from downloading a whole repack. Let me know if there are any issues and I can try to help if I can

    First of all, such a cool game to play with my son! You absolutely need to try “A way out” by the same devs as well.

    I´d just get a repack if I were you. Much easier. Makes no difference.
