I´m not quite sure what we have here on page 1 to download as "Steam Version" ~ 11,5 GB (never tried cuz always used the full BetterRepack).If you're referring to whether or not downloading a Steam version from here to your Steam library, then yes, it would technically be trackable (since your Steam library is accessible by Steam), and anything you download here is considered a pirated game. But, big juicy but, will a Steam employee ever look into your library, notice that there's no proof of transaction for some obscure Japanese game, of which the company that originally produced it is no longer in business, and care enough to do anything about it? I highly doubt it. Honestly, they don't care. I still choose to download non-steam versions, or avoid saving pirated games to my Steam library (not that I would EVER pirate a game *glance at my FBI agent*).
Maybe it´s according to the Steam base game (you can buy on Steam for ~ 70 bucks), but also only to extract to your drive and play it standalone (outside Steam) like the BetterRepack.
In this case it doesn´t matter if it´s from a pirate site or not. All what is outside Steam/steamapps/common Steam can´t dedect.
Maybe I´ll try this for couriosity only.
