Okay.

not video games

A right

Not victimless but not as bad as stealing. Why can Sup Forums only view things in black and white?

Justified when the company that made the game promotes scummy practices

For winners

fun

Mostly justified

here to stay

pirating

Overblown as both a threat and a boon

Completely legal in 3rd world countries.

...

Free.

>tfw downloading new albums from bands I'd never have given a listen to
>if it's shit I can just delete it
>if it's good I can buy future albums knowing I'll like it

Vidya is different I suppose but goddamn 70 dollars for a game you may or may not like is ridiculous.

a way for poorfags to play

Piracy improves sales unless if you're pirating something from an extremely large company. It increases exposure and smaller developers need as much exposure as they can get.
However if you pirate and try to justify it by saying it improves sales but you've never actually convinced anyone else to buy the game then you're retarded.

...

...

Just because you wouldn't buy the product after pirating it doesn't mean other people won't do it. You clearly have a very limited perspective. Indie developers have tracked sales and found that there are in fact people who will buy the game after pirating it.

Not that I would do it mind you.

Would you rather
A) love games so much you pirate+emulate them to play as many as possible, then support the devs of the games you like on a foundation built on trust and respect
or
B) buy every game that catches your fancy because you hate your fellow man, hate fun, hate integrity, and most importantly hate yourself so you support shitty predatory devs, support DRM, buy lootcrates, buy preorders, buy season passes, support full price for digital copies, complain about refund systems

it's not a hard choice

irrelevant

>modding support, both kit and sharing
>varied multiplayer that ties into singleplayer unobtrusively (in game markets and hubs, player made content interaction, community world altering)
>regular updates that improve and expand upon the features of the base game

Wow look you just made me buy your game

Piracy.

I pirate because I can get free stuff. I know it's illegal and I don't care. Lock me up.

...the right of all sentient beings.

Absolutely dead. TPB is filled with malware and fake torrents now

a fucking blessing; actually what introduced me to video games in general. great for testing the waters for other things, too
