After 10 years I upgraded my computer, not a gamer but there was a sale on a prebuilt that came with an decent GPU. So I downloaded some games (pirated). Really only play American Truck Simulator and Civilization VI. My question is that in order to play online (through Steam?) I need to actually buy the game so that it will show up on my steam account?
Steam is having a sale and American Truck Simulator is like $7 but the DLCs are really expensive! Can I use the DLCs that came with Pirated Games with the "legit" games you bought from Steam?
Checking the cs rin ru thread about it, it looks like the answer is yes for American Truck Simulator. You can get the DLC files from there, add them to the proper folder, and then use creamapi to enable them in game.
