@deviltaz35: So the luxury is delivered in your doorstep, which the stuff u think is unaffordable, and u think u cannot deserved such a luxury even it is FOC, then u send them to trash, continue to work on it , more than willing to pay more than a quarter of your salary to pay for genuine version , or just forget your only hobby ?
Sound simple huh? Kids around must being always cheer at you and yell Bravo! wish you luck
@deviltaz35: Good point , but it does not applied to everyone. What happened out there is beyond what we know, so do not simply judge people before you are fully understood what is the reason behind that triggered the action in respect to what the person did.
If you are in the same circumstance of perpetrator , can u guarantee that you will not commit crime as well as him? most hypocrite or pure ignorance will deny this without critical thinking and lacking sense of empathy.
@deviltaz35: The Pirated version of most titles available in front of everyone, if we expect those children to wait decades and refraining themselves not to touch those games, it is like restraining them not to watch porn or watch violent movies, and distort the fact that the existence of pirated games were fables.
Does this sound practical when there is a pile of stolen quality food that is FOC in front of you ( no cops around ), and you are in hunger without a single penny to purchase anything, but you still choose junks in trash , at least not until a decade later u finally found a job ?
Attention here pure ignorance asshole, before you judge the pirates, imagine what if the AAA title games now charge you $200 in usd or up (do you need a screenshot ? ) , are you willing to fork out your own pocket money for it ?
If you say must support developers to pay for their overpriced games or simply dont play and eat shit, u are simply failed to understand the reason behind why pirates always prevailed, and u do not aware the bizarre situation that people were struggling especially since the US dollar has started to strengthen.
Those who keep saying just pay to get a genuine copy, no money dont ever play, well let me tell you this,
#1 Not everyone is born in a country where their currency is stronger than US dollar, like most of Asia country, because of the F@%kin Inefficiency government bureaucracy. Some country currency is 1 usd = 4x or 6x or even up above that, can u imagine how much it cost to buy a game ? Excluding Singapore...
#2 One average meal is 8$, people's average income 1.5k$, high inflation rate in the country + crazy taxes, and yet it cost me 200$ to buy a genuine game, how a student like me suppose to afford that ?
#3 Steam sales it happened, however we need to wait at least 3 years to wait the price to drop to rock bottom, is that practical ?
#4 yes ,we do want to support developers, have some conscience on their hard work, but under such awful circumstance, its a hard choice.
If valve continues as a dominant as the largest platform, we can never expect further improvement regarding the steam client user interface and poor customer support, and steams fonts size setting will never come to us.
