    They do that as a legal waiver. Mods typically do not add any code that adds in DRM, or check to make sure the DRM is functioning, except in the case of the game utilizing an online multiplayer function, which could attempt to be a prevention for cheaters.

      I know that Wabbajack goes out of its way to make sure you’ve got a “non pirated” version. You can bypass that with a cheeky appid copy paste.

        Good to know. I bet it wrongly detects gog Skyrim as pirated. I’ll be avoiding it just so I’m not supporting this type of thing.

          Yep and if you go on the discord and ask why isn’t it being detected some little shits tell you to stop pirating when you own a legit copy
