I think Wayfall is trying to say because you are asking about pirated games we aren't 'supposed to help you. In this case I think it's ok because you aren't asking how, r help solving a problem with a pirated game.
Assuming they didn't break something in the crack, they should look the same. Cracks remove the need for the game to talk to the official server or something similar. The problem with this is you are now giving an .exe permission to install things, and you don't know what it's going to install. My Ex installs all kinds of cracked games on her machine, it runs like crap. I install games from steam and run no script. My machine runs great. That's why we don't support cracked games. They are crap.
