A shitty gaming studio that loves to ruin game franchises
EA and Ubisoft are responsible for ruining more of my favorite game franchies than I think all others combined.
Rockstar games grabbed a pirated MAX PAYNE 2 and more!, slapped a price sticker on 'em and uploaded to steam! 🤷🏿♂️ LMAO
pirates rights violation here! 🤣🤣
But you can feast on your sense of pride and accomplishment!
don't copy that floppy https://www.google.com/search?q=don%27t+copy+that+floppy
Devil's advocate: is the time spent playing a pirated retro game still a kind of lost revenue, since you could be spending your time buying and playing all their new shit? I say this as a long-time retro gamer who finally broke down and bought some new shit recently.
Going to work is lost revenue.
Yeah, game companies should be lobbying for UBI for everyone
In a sense I guess? But then it’s still their fault for not keeping it available for purchase.
Or they pull a Nintendo "Heres a game we made 20 years ago. That will be $50"
Yes, just as much as when someone dares to enjoy a different hobby.
We are just statistics to them.
I'd say no, because they don't own your time by default.
Odd contradiction. I support pirating when a person can't access media legally (whether due to financials or just dick-moves by corps). However, this is the same logic that writers are striking against with streaming and I sure as hell support them.
