>implying they still would not get that 70% of all income straight to their own pockets
I bet you also think that buying used games is totally fine, when it's literally worse than piratism in a sense that it's only the game shop or previous owner of the game that gets any money.
>he thinks this is a bad thing
>meanwhile, console friends are literally stealing each time they buy used copies from gamestop
Piracy does not equal a lost sale.
If your game is good, people will want to support it.
If you know that your game's mediocre-at-best, and don't want it to become obvious right off the bat by NOT providing playable demo or pre-release review copies, then you deserve all the pain and misery.
It's just ironic that after years of listening to "baww piracy's killing industry!!!" white knights, it's the gamedevs themselves embracing piracy more and more.
>long-ass wishlist, many of which are under $20
>can't pull the trigger on any of them, despite needing something to play
>Black Friday sale two weeks away
Goddamn it what's wrong with me
I only buy humble bundles and give all my money to a parish.
I WANT NAGATORO TO STEP ON ME AND CALL ME A MAGGOT
AAHHHHHH
Evil Takagi
10/10 would rape
Wow you're pretty pathetic
Great point OP, i think that i will donate all my money to EA.
I'll take it as a compliment if you're a cute brown girl
They're still getting money.
If you pirate a game, you cared enough to try to play it, ergo you're a lost sale. If you do not pirate a game, you are not a lost sale.
>brother wants to support dev/author/whatever
>buys their shit second hand at cex
(You)
>buying games on steam when you can just pirate them
I only buy games on my consoles
Why are (You) mad at the truth? Let me guess, if you can't pirate games, you'd take up basket weaving instead.
if I was cute I wouldn't be wasting my time here
Who's this semen demon? I'm into femdom, but I kind of feel like kicking her face in.
>If you pirate a game, you cared enough to try to play it
...OR you wanted to confirm that the game is worth your money / even works in the first place, potentially because there was no playable demo to use as a benchmarking tool for said questions.
Many of the people who pirate (especially shitty) games would have never ever bought the games in the first place
Also, you are assuming that no pirate would ever support the devs later on, which is an ages old, false myth. Even devs have realized that now, with stuff like Darkwood having been put up on Pirate Bay by the devs themselves.
MAGGOT
>many
not all though
really activates my almonds
How disgusting.
>Would have never bought the game in the first place
See you're right. They wouldn't buy video games. They would just take up some completely different hobby.
>When you actually want a developer to do some jewish business practices for the content because you really want to see more new things for the game.
>They don't
I will buy 2 more fucking copes if [st] when it comes out in English, I wouldn't mind some new character DLC
>too poor to afford games at full price
>still want to support people who make good vidya
I fail to see a problem with this
You're not a cute brown girl
There you go, thanks
Oh thanks for this. I didn't know the manga was out yet.
i would play only f2p games instead of doing the videogame equivalent of the russian roulette.
I buy the game when I can afford it, they should be glad they get anything.
How do I get a nagatoro gf? Every girl is so submissive and just wants me to choke her...
we make more money off sales than whimbuys, and it increses the install base, thus increaseing word of mouth
>If your game is good, people will want to support it.
It does not matter if a game is "good" or "bad" when it comes to making money. You know those cult classics games like Beyond Good & Evil and Psychonauts? They did not make any money and thats why they have not gotten any more games made yet.
Now I am not saying they flopped because of pirates, but its dumb to say that being able to get a product for free would not affect someones decision to spend money on that product. I mean just like in the OP, people tend to buy stuff during sales because they want to save money, well just take it one more step and thats why people pirate, they see a easy way to get a paid product to save money.
I don't like pirating because its pretty much just "Well I don't want to buy it, I am sure someone else will so its okay for me to pirate this!"
If you are going to pirate don't try to make it justify it morally, because its not, you are "stealing" a product that you would have otherwise needed to pay for.
If the devs didn't want me to buy it at 75% off they wouldn't put it up for sale at 75% off.
thanks for the share, user. this is a good read.
Don't developers usually make more money during sales anyway?
>It got translated already
thank you user
>if your game is good people will want to buy it
What a naive mind you have.
I bought hollow knight on purpose before I knew the summer sales were starting.
I don't even like the game style, and I suck at it. But gotta support aus
>implying any of you moralfags buy music
Well yeah I like the devs but they gotta sell at reasonable prices man.
i am pretty sure that 90% of these people have an illegal version of Windows and they pirate series and movies
>implying I even listen to music
pls gib femdom gf
>literally every other board is okay with piracy
>not Sup Forums
I'm a dumb buyfag and I'm even tired of you obnoxious cunts, who fucking cares how people play their video games.
I buy games at full price if I know it's quality work. I want developers to be rewarded and to make more of what I love.
This shit is like crack. Is there a name for this sort of relationship where the girl relentlessly teases the guy even though she's into him?
Piracy is okay for bad games only. If you pirate good games you should die.
Used games are worse than piracy, since a used game is definitely a lost sale, you just chose to give your money to Gamestop instead of the devs.
The issue is musicians make most of their money from live concerts and merchandise, not CD sales or streaming. While vidya only really has one source of revenue, game sales.
Steam sales are when publishers make the most money. Because they sell way more copies.
This
>even though she's into him
I've bought Terraria at full price at least 6 times now.
I usually don't moralfag, but I played a pirated Rimworld for probably 300 or 400 hours and I felt bad so I bought it at full price.
Nagatoro wouldn't spend so much time with him if she didn't like him, right? I need to have my fantasy
nagatoro is desperate for senpai dick, user
this is a spinoff series, it isn't even real
The way this new generation of kids is attacking file sharing is worrying, in my day kids rallied against the government trying to get a stranglehold on society
Nobody is attacking file sharing we just think it's funny to piss off piratefags.
It's made by the same guy. It's just the manga version
It was real enough to give me a boner. That's all I care about.
Please is there more?
I didn't know I liked this sort of thing
...
Considering piratefag links get spam reported and delete, yes, someone is attacking filesharing.
Whether or not you are doing it intentionally you've attracted idiots.
Going to need a hard source that it’s the same person
Probably shills trying to prevent pirates from pirating games. They will come here regardless.
There's a short VN, that's what the manga is based on. It's not a professional production but it's out there, not hard to find.
>that reverse-NTR picture that one user drew last night
true, shills are a serious as fuck problem these days, though it fucking depresses me to no end how normalfag this place has become.
Does /t/ not exist?
Are the people spam reporting shit pretending it doesn't exist?
For fug's sake even 8gag Sup Forums has perpetual sharethreads.
>reverse-NTR
post it
bruh
...
>would rather get nothing instead of a reduced, fair amount
ok, try reducing bloat, making a good game and hire people for their skills and not their skin color or sexual orientation, devfriend
Maybe they shouldn't let the game go on sale if they wanted the full profit.
Holy fucking shit.
...
FUCKING DELETE
Good
user when was the last time you went and bought a game after you pirated and enjoyed it?
...
>2017
>paying over $20 for a video game
...
>If you pirate a game, you cared enough to try to play it, ergo you're a lost sale
A person cares enough to pay 0 dollars for the game. That person was never a customer to begin with.
...
this kill the nagatoro
Cuphead.
What's the name of this manga/doujin?
I read the first 2 chapters, and it's been tickling my femdom kink.
I buy games to put up the facade to others that they should buy games.
And then when they buy games I work on I get paid. Capitalism, who knew?
>this gets translated meanwhile my favorite mangaka has finished manga that date back as far as 2010 that haven't been touched by translators
>seven years
>he hasn't just learned jap and translated it himself
wow
based as fuck
>implying I'd ever pay upwards of 80-100 dollars for a game
The tables have turned now bitch.
How many image sets of this are out now? Last I checked there were only 2
