>>738892974>>I'm very much nowfreudian slip that guy is confirmed a millionaire
>$30 for an indie game
pirating another fifty copies, good luck at the end of the month rentoid :^)
>>738892974seems like a very reasonable response?can you stop pretending to be a retard just to get some (You)s? i don't understand how you find joy in that
>>738892974It's just not really worth it to comment on piracy as an indie developer.
More or less how I feel about piracyTrannies and thirdies treat petty theft like a badge of honour that needs to be shared with everyone instead of like something shameful that you do in secret
>>738892974>you could play, possibly enjoy, and perhaps even support our future endeavors for a myriad of reasons>or fuck you, return our game instead because...reasonshmmmm
>buy game >play it for an hour and don’t like it >”just return it bro” >ask steam for a refund >money is not trapped in your steam wallet, can’t get an actual refund
>>738892974Pirate any indie who talks like this
And what was the game then?
>>738893227Free publicity If you want to get rich u gotta think like the jew no morality among successful people morals are brainwashing tools to keep the poorfags working hard and eating shit lol
Bully crybaby bitch indie devs that get mad at a single (yes single) negative review.
>>738893946>moral relativismGot a leftist here
>>738892974How is this unreasonable?
>>738893814What dogshit country are you from? In Canada when I request a refund I get to choose whether it goes to the original payment (credit card) or the Steam wallet.
>>738894004Based dev response
>>738893265>shamefulThis guy feels bad when he is watches movies for free
>>738893149I think it's amusing how many "indie" games these days are just a small team getting massive funding from a big publisher. Shit ain't even indie
>>738894052cheats are cheats, regardless of whatever flowery name you give them
>>738894010U don't know what relativism is pal that or you're just illiterate can't read posts right LOL!
>>738894004based>>738894140and? this is just some achievement hunter faggot crying
>>738894004Lol based
>>738892974Faggots not being able to keep their mouths shut is why piracy is dying
>>738894140>UHHH CHEATS ARE CHEATSLmao then don't use them, you fucking Melvin
>>738894004fricking based
>>738893181>seems like a very reasonable response?You don't belong on /v/.
>>738894004>people who use them should be allowed to earn achievementsWhy? They didn't achieve anything.
I pirate but niggers that pirate and then attentionwhore about it are always obnoxious.
>>738894142So when is your transition surgery?
>>738894383>Why? They didn't achieve anything.Ableism or something.
>>738894236>this is just some achievement hunter faggot cryingThe dev is crying even more on Twitter than the achievement whore, dev is actually whining that his "overly positive" rating was ruined by this single review had.If all it takes is a single negative review to trigger the fuck out of someone, then they shouldn't be making games.
>>738893829>saving a thumbnailnice job phonenigger
>>738894052hope you're buying a copy for every person that agrees with the reviewer
>>738892974If you gonna shill, what game nigger?
>>738893885The Japanese samurai fears the freemangadotcom circles.
>>738894004>crying about achievements for a game no one will rememberDo these people really have nothing going for them in their everyday lives?
>>738895754this one >>738894004
>>738892974>Boo hoo im a millionaire stop stealing from meHe needs to kill himself.
I made fun of this jewish friend of mine heavily cause he told me he pirated ninja gaiden 4, a game i bought and loved. I rubbed in his face that he pirated a game that sold worse than hundred line, a game he purchased full price and fucking hated, so much that he rants about it just mentioning the name. He did eventually buy it, and every time hed play it go "OMG THIS GAME SO GUD" then stop playing after 40 mins to play deadlock.Anyway, i can only justify piracy if publishers are dicks or the game is abandonware. Games like rollerdrome and disco elysium, it honestly is morally correct to pirate because the dev studio of those games dont even exist and will never see a cent of it. Same with the original dead space trilogy.If the game isnt being legally sold, pirate away, just dont complain about it or posture about it. Pirates are becoming the new vegans of the gaming subculture and its gay as hell.
>>738896713Posturing is half the fun, the other half is playing it
>>738894463Bro you know I fuck ur ass lmao
>>738894004just don’t use them? it’s like people bitching about how broken junction is in ff8 when they went specifically out of their way to grind out card and refine
>>738893885it still amazes that even after decades being the international market, the japanese are so fucking idiotic with how the rest of the world works.The big dogs on top are understandable. But the common joe are pants on head retarded. "Purissu du nutto pirate geym!" even when the game is out of circulation, and pretty much abandoned and the only way to play it is to pirate and emulate.
>>738894383you didn’t either. it’s just a few kilobytes of text
>>7388967137/10 fanfic, anon. good effort, but needs more gay sex.
>>738897616the post you are replying to is both phrased amicably and makes a cogent point beyond nippon honor (and is also about mangos rather than vidyers)i ain't gonna grandstand, being a pirate myself, but if you truly can't grasp why even commonners might not appreciate piracy then you just lack the theory of mind
>>738896713>Games like rollerdrome and disco elysium, it honestly is morally correct to pirate because the dev studio of those games dont even exist and will never see a cent of it.insanely based
>>738892974all too easy
>>738897871The point is that their way of thinking is not applicable on how the international markets work.Piracy was the only thing that even made their media massively profitable in the first place since early western adaptations were so fucked and fumbled. The market started because of it and kept growing even when even when it's still there. Them clinging to their honoru system is backwards.
>>738894289This. those cocksuckers should be shot.
>>738893885I don't blame manga artists for the situation at all, it's distributors. Legitimate manga sites charge absolutely insane prices, the figures are astronomical. I don't seek out legitimate avenues because I could not justify those prices no matter how much I made. There is no affordable avenue to purchase manga if you're buying it outside of Japan. Anime does not have this problem to nearly the same degree because much of it has been seamlessly integrated with existing TV streaming programs and the rest is still on monthly subscription sites. There is no manga site I'm aware of that you can just sub for a flat recurring fee and read all you want. Everything is token-based, you pay X amount to read a single chapter of a single manga. It's also broken up so no one site has everything from every publisher, so you're going to have to use multiple sites no matter what. Fuck that. It's made especially difficult to justify when the alternative is "free site with almost every manga ever made with a tagging system and we don't require an account". I'm sorry, but you have to make your service more convenient and accessible than pirate sites, and that can't just constitute playing whack-a-mole with them. Manga authors and studios shouldn't be pressuring customers to use the existing, terrible system, they should be putting serious pressure on the system to not be so utterly shit.Also, he's completely wrong about the whole 'getting it for free' bit because I feel like it was really only around 2013-14(ish, I don't have some exact date) that they started putting serious effort into the western market. Before that you had tons and tons of fansubbers for anime and scanlators for manga doing all their work for them because there literally was no alternative whatsoever. That was the case for literal decades, and now you give people the option the option to pay insane prices for a terrible service and get mad when they don't want to.
>>738898158>honoru system is backwards>is not applicable on how the international marketsfair enough, but also largely not the pointyou are framing it as a purely economical issue in the world of "markets", while japs are coming from the ethical position of "fairness" of getting something that's sold for free (see also: NoA trying to convince to pack in wii sports for free and NoJ resisting)this is just a completely different axis of interpretation, which can be argued from an ethical angle as well (such as massive markup compared to japanese magazines and volumes), but always circling back to that one gaben quote and how legit markets spring up from gray markets is simply missing the point
