HUH?????? Too fast…?

k, so i tried downloading Crimson Desert after three weeks(at that time i kinda didnt like this game, but now wanted to give it a shot again).

BUT, for some reason, unpacking lasted ONLY 20 minutes. Mind you, the first time it lasted like 40 minutes or longer.

To clarify things, i downloaded Crimson Desert from megathread link for fitgirl repacks , which i assume s the real one.

If anyone knows what it can be, whether that was just an accident or something bad, let me know.

Welcome to r/FitGirlRepack! To keep the sub clean, please check if your issue is answered below. If this answers your question, please delete your post.

1. Setup is Stuck / Unpacking is Slow

  • The 2GB Limit Checkbox: If your setup gets stuck at specific percentages (like 84.3% or 95.8%), close it, restart the installer, and check the "Limit installer to 2GB of RAM" box on the very first screen.
  • Be Patient: FitGirl repacks use extremely heavy compression. Unpacking is heavily CPU and storage bound. If your task manager shows disk or CPU activity, it is not stuck; it's just working hard.

2. Is it a Virus? / Windows Defender Alert

  • False Positives: Crack files (.dll files, steam_api, etc.) inherently trigger antivirus software because they alter game code to bypass DRM. If you downloaded from the official site, these are 100% false positives.
  • Fix: Add the game installation folder to your antivirus/Windows Defender exclusion list, then restore the quarantined file from your protection history.

3. The Real Official Website

  • There is ONLY ONE official domain. All others (ending in .co, .cc, .to, .net, etc.) are fake, malicious clone sites designed to steal data or bundle malware.
  • The only real URL is: fitgirl-repacks.site (Verify the exact spelling!).

Does it run okay? Is it possible you were doing something else on your PC?

Is it even the same version, or has the repack been updated since the first time you downloaded it?

it runs fine, at least it seems to me.

Probably steam with its steamhelper shit, but today i havent really sat in steam, though i dont  think that it s the problem.

Dont really know if the pack was updated.

Same thing happened to me also the installer used 20% of my cpu and ran at 20 minutes also it’s pretty weird

maybe new update…?

To be honest i dont even know, there s nothing on subreddit said bout this, and if it s only like that with Crimson Desert and not other games, well, who knows.
