can nix for gaming pirates lead to easy piracy

nix allows for flakes which are 100% reproducible (ie. you copy paste a flake it would do the intended stuff only) , this make me realize that now we can have flakes for games like do you want inscryption , sure add this flake and this would install all dependencies and lutris etc. and you just have to link us to the gog-games.to / fitgirl-repack / dodi-repack variant (preferrably , gog-games.to since you can verify it with gog) (i have picked only the goat of gaming piracy from megathread) , imo this can give huge boost to gaming in linux and wine is literally really close to giving native performance and you wont even see the difference

the same logic can be applied to ms excel , powerpoint etc. but i dont see the point after using libreoffice (literally the best thing ever)

Friendly reminder that sometimes the native version runs worse than proton/doesn't have all the dlcs.

We already have the john cena repacks, but it's not user friendly to set up the environment so it could be a great alternative

Jc141 are pretty good as far as Linux distribution goes, dwarfs was a strange chose at first but actually makes sense. For anyone wanting to use they're scripts then they just need to follow the github guide
