I remember playing a pirated version of an older Anno game way back in the day, I don't remember if it was 1602 or 1701, probably the latter, and it was entirely in German. That didn't stop me though, as back then I couldn't quite figure out how to set it to english, and I just powered through it and played it in German. I owe what little German I understand to Anno, lol.

    pirated version of an older Anno game

    Playing a pirated game feels different. I remember I sunk so many hours into a pirated copy of Factorio. After I bought it (for the mods), I couldn't play like I did before.

    I think we're talking about slightly different things, I was referring to back when we would share around actual CDs with sketchy copies of games burned onto them that you could install onto your computer. A lot less support on torrenting forums for us dumb kids back then if we didn't understand something in the installation process. Nowadays with factorion and other digital only games, you can't quite experience the same level of confusion, thankfully.
