Is it me or does playing pirated video games not feel as "fun" as when you purchase legitimate game licences?Like, because I didn't actually pay for permission to play the game, I don't feel like I earned my experience. Or that the game technically isn't "mine" to enjoy.
I think it's just that you wouldn't pay for a game you didn't wanna play (at least full priced) whereas you will pirate any old slop Then there's the social aspect, you want your steam friends to see you playing the latest fotm slop fomo
That only happens because modern games are slop. Nobody had this issue when pirating Chrono Trigger.
>>738153545It's because you weren't actually interested in it and only got it because it was free
>>738153674That's a different beast because you might have the issue playing Chrono trigger because you can pirate 20,000 retro games in 2 seconds then you just have overwhelming choices
>>738153545>Is it me or does playing pirated video games not feel as "fun" as when you purchase legitimate game licences?I can't even imagine what level of goy brainrot this is
>>738153903It's a fake thread and op should be banned desu
>>738153545It feels more fun because I am in complete ownership of it. Nobody can alter or take it away without my say.
>>738153545It is you.
>>738153545I wouldnt steal a carBut I would take my personal replicator device to a car lot, have it scan a car, and then let it perfectly recreate that car for me at home.
>>738153545nah that sounds dumb and stupid
I would steal a car.
Limewire still exists? surely thats just some dude with the name right?
Nigga you betta stop playin before someone takes your ass seriously.
>>738153545To me it sounds like you are a massive faggot.Every second I play a pirated game, I relish at the thought that a dev is going home to his starving family, telling his malnourished children that the reason they can not afford food is because that one anon (me) is playing a pirated game, instead of a paid one.

>>738154493I just download and copy and paste 1 million copies to drain their bank accounts and bankrupt the studio's instantly
>>738153662Yeah, people with Steam backlogs complain about abundunce saturation, but the ability to just vacum up every vidya in existance at no cost realy does create an unmanagable mess.
>>738153545No, it's not just you, ~2% of people have an IQ of <70 and are also mentally disabled.
>>738153545/v/ would steal a car if they knew how to drive and get away with it.
piracy is probably going to be dead soon in order to stop child porn or whatever bullshit they come up with
>>738154705Kek
>>738153545Pirating is bad, and yes, I will keep pirating.Pirating since 1998
>>738154915
>>738154705
>>738154705all you had to do was steal the damn train
>>738153545Its okay if its Nintendo games.
>>738153545Have you tried playing actually good games?
>>738154281By responding you lost the argument. Their goal was to say anything that grabs your attention

>>738155262At least my mother gets to live i guess
>>738153545I remember this advert playing before legally purchased DVDs and it always made me feel guilty, like I'd done something wrong just by purchasing a movie.

>>738153545I think you might just like the achievement dopamine. It's the exact same thing otherwise, unless you simply feel compelled to 100% games you buy to get your moneys worth.
>>738153545Yeah if you're white being a nigger feels bad.
>>738153545dont give money to evil lol
>>738156452Things you want are evil? That just means you're evil.
>>738156535and?did you have a point, or...?
>>738156583Yes? Money is used to signal companies that you want more of the thing so it's the best to use money on the things you find value in.
>>738153545LimeWire still exist?
>>738153545opposite for mepirated games are fun, bought games are an obligationit only feels good to buy a game after finishing it pirated
>>738154848> ~2% of people have an IQ of <70 and are also mentally disabled85 tho?
>>738153545the only memory I have about those "you wouldn't" ad things was that IT crowd episode because my teacher showed it to us for some reason, we were done with tests and had nothing to do so we watched random videos for hours.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPEeaxI0OPU
>>738157070It was a very short lived campaign because everybody made fun of it. According to Wikipedia, it was only on DVDs released in 2004. I remember it being on the DVD for "A Series of Unfortunate Events"
>>738155875
>>738157195well, that was very unfortunate
>>738153545Sounds like you weren't that interested in it to begin with and just downloaded by impulse
>>738153545It is just you, stupid fucking retard.
lmao pirates win againthanks for funding my hobbycuck
>>738153545midwits dont get it. you paid real money therefore you're invested
>>738153545i had pirated a few games when i was younger and broke but when i got money i ended up buying copies
>>738153545I impulse bought like 20 new steam games and I am going back to the ones I pirated. Its just about game hooks
>umm doesn't piracy give you guys the ick?you should genuinely kill yourself OP
>>738153545No, can't say I feel that way at all about licenses. I do enjoy games I got on a physical disc more though. Makes the experience feel special.
I pirated Gotcha Force, had a great time with it, and recommend it to everyone who isn't a pussy about pirating. I can't imagine being the kind of autist who just can't enjoy it unless they pay two hundred smackeroos to some aftermarket kike on ebay.
>>738153545>Is it me or does playing pirated video games not feel as "fun" as when you purchase legitimate game licences?Well, being OP, it's natural you'd feel like a giant faggot regardless of what you do lmao
>>738154705surprised nobody pulled this /v/ classic yet
>>738153545>Is it me or does playing pirated video games not feel as "fun" as when you purchase legitimate game licences?That's completely psychological. Many people have difficulty accepting they just wasted their money so their brains trick them into "enjoying" the game.The games I've probably got the most most playtime in are MGSV (1000's of hours trying to perfect stealth all missions), XCOM enemy within, XCOM 2 wotc and RE2 remake and their all pirated.I dropped Pragmata* (pirated) on the 4th level, because it's absolutely fucking tedious with an annoying ass game mechanic (hacking). I'm half convinced most people who finished it only did so to justify their purchase to themselves.tl:dr it's psychological and not everyone is susceptible to it.*anything thinking of posting fearmongering about hypervisor you'll be shouting iinto the void btw
>>738160660fuck you
>>738153545Its usually the opposite, pirated games are more fun because I judge them less harshly since I didn't paid money for it
>>738153545It feels funner because i know my momey isn’t going to support the lackies of the zioniist occupation government
>>738155021> Pirating since 1998It really does feel so fucking cool when ever I show my son how to score free computer games, after growing up in the 1990s and my parents not being able to afford them when I was growing up.
>>7381535451. Pirating games means you do it in bulk; literally thousands of games become accrssible to you and decision paralysis kicks in, along with thinking about other games while playing one.2. Not playing on original hardware with the intended controller or things like frame rate (if certain aspects are tied to frame rate) can make it less than ideal. Mario Sunshine will always feel better with the Gamecubes orgasmic triggersOther than those two things, no absolutely not.
>>738154705Don't open
>>738153545Games dont feel as fun if i dont have a physical copy to play, but playing digital copies always feels better if its free.
>>738153545Pirated, non-pirated, what's the difference with digital games?Pirates are better off because Sony ir Gabe or whoever can't just revoke the license to the game you are 'indefinitely renting' when they feel like it.Now, for me, my autism compels me to play all games only on original hardware with official, physical software.When I wanted to play Barroque last year, for example, I bought a Sega Saturn.If I had a great time.Plus Sony can't revoke my ability to play Gitaroo Man unless they break into my house.

>>738153662>I think it's just that you wouldn't pay for a game you didn't wanna play (at least full priced) whereas you will pirate any old slopThis basically. I used to pirate every game I played and ended up buying the ones that I liked so at one point I stopped pirating games (other than to try them out first) and just bought them because I was gonna do it eventually and I'd rather have them on steam for convenience sake and achievements.
>>738153545Yes but only because I'm a trophyfagLiterally the only reason I still pay for games and play on console, that and my attention span is fucked I can't play big story based games in a desk chair
>>738153545>I must earn good goy points to enjoy a thingthat's why kikes rule over your ass
>>738153545when you buy a game you gaslight yourself into believing it's good when it isn't and you force yourself to finish it because it costs you money.When you pirate it you have no buyers bias so a hood game will be good and a bad game will be bad no matter how much you try to shill it to yourself by believing you actually made a sound investment.Buyfags literally cuck themselves into enjoying shit because they paid for it.Pirate chads see gaems for what they are.There is a reason why review codes are given for free.

>>738163719This is true but refunds exist for a reason, so you're not stuck with a shit game that you thought would be good
>>738163457I've got to hand it to Gabe, I've pirated practically nothing that's on Steam. Even of my purchases, literally the only thing I regret paying for was Fall Guys. He was dead accurate that piracy is a service problem. I'm still a pirate, but typically just for retro shit nowadays.
>>738163719>poor reviews of media made before the 90's did not exist because everyone had to pay for it and was thus compelled by psychological mechanisms beyond their control to enjoy itHow did the 80's video game crash happen again?
op are you japanese
I pay for games that deserve it
