>pirating a game>see thisi feel bad bros
>only feel bad when you're reminded what you're doingbrown behavior
If you want to do charity, give some food to the homeless dude you walk by every dayThe college dropout making that game will probably be fine
>>746487142Who gives a shit.
>>746487142don't forget to block it from internet access in windows firewall since those kikes probably steal some of your data anyway.
Honestly if I like a game enough I'll buy it. I think like 99% of the games I pirate I end up uninstalling it within a few hours, since I usually only pirate games I'm not sure about anyway.
>>746487142Then pay if you actually like it and continue playing it. Even if not now, then later. And be honest about it.
>>746487142Don't feel bad, a single copy won't make any difference anyway.
>>746487287>implying OP leaves his house
Don't feel bad Mr. ##### #### with ip address 192.168.##.###. We give out fake torrented copies of our game on various pirate websites with an ip tracker and rootkit whammy slammy combo. Enjoy jail time bud! The authorities have already been notified since before this post was live. Hope it was worth it pal.
>>746487703I live in a first world country, piracy is legal here :)
>>746487142>sar please do the kindly and let us track youNah, they deserve to be pirated
>>746487142>you're a rockstarwell, you(the studio) certainly aren't lmao
>>746487142I don’t feel bad they can easily apply at McDonald’s. Ai is going to ruin dev work anwyay. In the near future everyone is a dev
>>746487478this, we need more people pirating this game
>>746487821>Ai is going to ruin dev work anwyay.It's opposite, most games are now vibe coded, I saw game in popular releases where developer literally, according to him, don't know a single thing about coding.
I sometimes pirate free games just so the download counter on their sites wouldn't go up
>>746487228thisop is a NIGGERFUCK ALL NIGGERS (and jannies)
>>746487142don't feel bad, the game is fucking shit anyway, I've pirated it yesterday
>>746487287Don’t do this anons, you’ll get that food thrown at you
>>746487142I don't feel bad because everything I do for myself is justice, so it's not a problem at all.
>>746487142You know you could always buy it if you liked it
>>746487142Fuck em. Indies deserve to suffer.
Art made for money isn't art, it's a product.The only indie devs I respect are the ones who publish on itch.io and let you pay whatever you want.
>>746487287Homeless vagrants are, by and large, homeless by choice. Don't give them food, money, or attention.
>>746488506no wonder europe doing so bad with all those doctors and engeneers.normies still (after so many years and examples) believe that niggers are just like them.
>>746487287>contribute to some loser piece of shit crackhead on the sidewalk instead of someone working hard to create something that makes people happyyou have the iq of a shitskin
>>746488506>t. bitterfag who has never tried to achieve anything in his life because he's a pussy but prefers to blame everyone else for his total failure
>>746488506>how dare you make a product people enjoy without being part of a massive corporation who own everything you produce like a good goy
>>746488506the Argentinian was either a gift reseller or someone abusing currency exchange lmao
>>746488462Pirates don't do that. Pirates are the biggest fags because they can't even be morally corrupt and just pirate. Instead they have to do mental gymnastics. Every. Single. Time.
>>746487142>compares me to RockstarI have a vendetta and will steal all their games.
>>746489193I used to pirate before buying when Steam demos suckedI buy games I like because I'm an achievement hunter but I want to know if I'll enjoy the game beforehand
There's nothing wrong with pirating indie games; they're made on a small budget without any ambition.
I generally pirate before purchase, and I may never even get around to playing the pirated copy.>get FFXVI from FatTranny>never play>see on humble for cheapish>buy>playing now
>>746489193I pirate anything above 10€, digital content isn't worth more than thatI buy small indies all the time
>>746488506they are called native americans now anon
>>746487142yeah i buy games i likei also buy games i don't like on accidentbut you never pay full price
>>746489193I rarely pirate but I always buy from key resellers, never official sources.Can't say which one is worse.
I'll preorder and pay full price if I know it's going to be worth it.
>pirate indieslop>Pre order every $70 AAAslop
>>746489662>$6 taxLmao
>>746489662>if I know it's going to be worth it>it's a remasterIncredibly retarded moment. The wide majority of remasters/remakes nowadays are just inferior to the original.
I'm not poor anymore so I just buy the games I want to try
>>746487703heh theres no laws for that in my country thou
>>746490261My wife directed it.
>>746487142why are you pirating indie games?! theyre cheap enough
Think about it logically: The sort of person who has time to play games don't have much money to spend in the first place. And people who work serious career jobs also don't give a shit about video games or people movie games. It's a losing battle.
>>746490110That's on $100. In Yurop, they pay like $20 on $100.
>>746488582I hate the homeless too but this is a massive cope.
>>746490413Yes, but it's already included in the price. So it's really the publishers problem.
>>746490447Why do you hate them? Homeless women will give blowjobs for food.
>>746487142just buy it later if you can
>>746487142>pirate game>see that>play game anyway >it sucks>uninstall and send a twitter message to the devs telling them I pirated it and it was shitI’M SORRY FOR PARTY ROCKING
>>746490468Tax in Yurop can effectively push a product into the "won't buy" territory. It's so insignificant in the US (especially in good states) that we rarely factor it in to decisions, and the price varies by county.
>>746490392what about the people who inherited a shitload of money and don't have to work, still pirating cheap ass games
>>746487142>indieDon't worry, your money would've probably been sent straight to troon surgery or domestic terrorism funds.
Buy it then. I personally still don't give a fuck.
>>746487142>pirating game>command prompt flickers on screen
I dont feel bad, these guys didnt sell their game DRM free on GOG or itch.ioFuck em. If they dont care about my consumer right to own my game, why should I give them my money or support them?Anyone who supports steam and DRM software should be banned from owning or developing video games.
>>746490934>donatingare they still calling them donations?i thought nowadays even normies understand that this is an extortion.
>>746491112>conhost.exe
>>746487287Nah dude, Salvation Army or St. Jude's. Almost every other charity is for profit, even that bum asking for handouts is making about $100 a day.
just don't be a fag and pay for the game if you had fun with it for a while, think of it as a free trial.
>>746490620Well, they are just being smart with their money. Pretty based.
>>746491247I just give my money to F1NN5TER.
>>746491112>on linux>run any software/game through heroic games launcher>its a flatpak with no access to any of my user or system files>and if they somehow break out of that with some impossible exploit, my system is read only with bazzite I can roll back>and if they somehow break out of that with another impossible exploit, they'll have to get my root password one of the few times I enter it>then they can go through my PC, which theyll see I have a password manager, which is authorized by 2FA, so they'll have to get that too, and did I mention all of my passwords are 30+ random characters 200+ bit entropy?
There should be special text for a pirated version.>YOU PIRATED OUR GAME, YOU FUCK.
>>746491360>bazziteimagine falling for the meme
>>746491396XIII had to get a few crackfixes since the copy protection showed up in multiple spots. I remember one where there's supposed to be a keycard on a table, and a message popped up saying "If you want the keycard, you should consider buying the game."
>>746487142I make around 12k a day on my one business. what should I branch into next? is there anything thats more fun or interactive than what currently exists? Im not on storymode thoebeit
Why do game companies and indie studios not understand ownership?I don't own it, I don't buy.I do own it, I buy.It is that simple.
>>746491590You've never owned a video game ever unless you wrote it.
>>746491590>want to watch a movie on the big screen>have to buy the entire cinemapaying for service and experiences is a thing, you know? not all purchases lead to ownership
>>746487228Unlike whites who dont feel.vad at all
>>746491672We can go deeper, just because you bought the movie doesn't mean you own the rights to the movie. You just own the ability to view it at anytime anywhere. You cannot play the movie for other people at cost because now YOU are providing a service. Without a loicense mate. Nothing wrong with watching the movie with 1,000,000 people but once you start charging people to view it then publishers get all lawyered up.This is why emulation and ROMs are so misunderstood. Legal teams purposely obfuscating language for their advantage.
>>746491875Most movie licences actually do have clauses for crowd viewing.
>>746491875Over a reasonable amount of people will usually count as public exhibition, which is prohibited.
>>746491942>>746491953SEE??????
why not write an e-mail to ask the developer if they're okthey're hardly affected by your pirating
>>746492032Most people believe they will not receive a response or legal action will be taken against them for asking a question.
>>746487142fuck indie devs KEKthey should be paying me for playing their reddit sloppa KWAB
ITT: living failures and burger flippers that will never amount to anything in life and will disappear from the collective memory one minutes after their demise.
>>746492259you're in this thread too, you know?
>>746492312Yes to have a laugh at you. The one watching the monkey at the zoo is not a monkey nor in the cage.
>>746492343you are in the cage, anonyou're too blind with rage to even see yourself
>>746487287They'll just spend that food on drugs don't do this
>>746492343>N-nuh uh, I'm n-not the monkey. I'm o-only here t-to heckin' own you, I swear!You are lower than a monkey in a cage. You are an ape that doesn't even realize it's in one to begin with. You fling your own shit at your fellow man, unable to comprehend that that very shit is stinking up the very place you frequent.
>>746490447It's not a cope in welfare states. America though, sure.
>>746491339Baste him with cum
>>746491748Can't feel bad about things you don't do
>>746487142why did you make a fake screenshot shill you worthless retarded turd
>pirate a game>greeted by a wall of marketinese>feel vindicated
>>746494470kys
>>746487228brownoids literally can't fathom past 1st order consequences
>>746487287>he automatically assumes there are homeless bums around meCity fags have such a warped view on the world
>>746489450kek what a retard i hope your game crash nonstop at gayhamut
big ambitions has 13k reviews in under 2 days, i think they will be finealso companies and marketing reps waste thousands of dollars and horrible spending of their resources to try to get ecelebs to shill their game for 1 hour, they pay like 10s of thousands of dollars they also do shit like business expenses with shills or execs for fancy dinners that cost thousands of dollarsdont worry about your 20 dollars, its like charities that pocket 90% of the funds for their own "non profit salaries" and only spend 10% for front facing donation goals
>>746487142>Pirate the game>its good and enjoyable>Huh what a good game, I'll buy it>Pirate a game>it's shit>Huh I'm glad I didn't buy itWhat's the problem?
>>746497828devs want you to pay even if you didn't like it
>>746497225I like it, even if the combat is brain dead (less so than FFXV, though). It's the first FF I've had a desire to complete since 8.
>>746491247if you give st. jude $5 they will spend the next 2 years sending you physical mail, email, and phone calls begging for more. i can guarantee you that they spend more money predating repeat donations out of empathetic people than they get from their first donation.
>>746497909Going through a refund process is a chore, i don't want to waste my time and money.
