Is the implication that PC gamers pirate their games?

The Fitgirl mascot is the spoon girl. Who is actually a French actress I think.

Fitgirl repacks cracked games and is a major safe piracy source.

Basically, whoever fitgirl is condenses the game to make the download smaller. And then the install takes a little longer. It is "repacked." They themselves are not a hacker. The person who actually makes the game playable.

BASICALLY PC gamers can easily pirate games.
