Yeah this is from 2019? Seems pretty prescient

Nope. It's a common joke to show that a company doesn't actually lose money when a game is pirated.

It's simply a comment on how piracy =/= lost sales. Don't look too far into it.

[–] Zacryon@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

No. Afaik this only takes effect after certain revenue and install thresholds.

F2P games can still make money. Look: microtransactions. So this absolutely applies to them.

[–] Zacryon@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago

Ah yeah, sorry, wasn't thinking about dark pattern games.

[–] Venat0r@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago
