Is this your first time using pirate? It's okay, everyone has their first time, even me more than 10 years ago. I will be happy to guide you. You see the name of this release "SHARK SIEGE TOGETHER SURVIVAL-SKIDROW", it's not mine, I just re-uploaded it from SCENE, in this case the SKIDROW team (you don't need to search their website, since it's not public on the internet, websites you find are known to fake and use the names of groups at SCENE).
What is Scene? you should search the wiki and google about this, they will explain it better than me. In general, the scene is decades old, certainly older than you (and me). It is completely safe. All the pirates you download from the internet, including movies, games, software,... are mostly leaked from the Scene.
When you download a game (or anything that comes from Scene) from sites like IGG, you can easily check the legitimacy of the file you downloaded. By using database sites taken from the scene, for example https://www.srrdb.com/browse/category:pc/order:date-desc/1,... You use tools like 7z, to check the file's HASH code, and match it with information from those web pages. If the hashes match, you are completely safe, and vice versa.
Can this be fixed, i like to try this game :)

Sacrificing a little bit on visuals in the right places, in open world build and survival games, makes a much more playable and enjoyable experience.
You want well handled draw distance.
You dont need all the reflection's in the world.
I can't enjoy 7 days to Die, because there's too much pop in on everything.
Its immersion breaking.
