Nobody really cares about the disk you steal from a shop, its worth a few cents at most. If you steal a physical copy from a store you steal the information on the disk, that is what actually is valueable. You take something a huge group of people has spend 8+ hours of working day for several years.
Piracy advocates keep gobbling bullshit about how you aren't actually stealing something, just copying. They pretend like information and data doesn't hold value on it's own. That is a ridiculous thought. Basically if they don't work a physical job they might aswell just not get paid anymore, since their work is essentially worthless.
With piracy, you are still stealing what isn't rightfully yours. Just because you are making a copy doesn't excuse your behaviour, remember the disk is just a carrier for the valueable information. In a transforming market towards digital only with the pirates logic no game developer would ever be paid.
Friendly reminder that if you pirate, you are no better than a dindu shoplifting.
It's supposed to be frequent line breaks because something something comment formatting in Reddit. Regular paragraph notation does not fall under that umbrella, so that guy's just retarded. Not that you're any less of a fag for making this thread.

Meme fad that only came up two years ago.
Accusing people of being from reddit because of double spacing like this
When in reality people have spaced like this since before 2010 but newfags arent aware of that so they get angry when they see something like this
you don't even know what reddit spacing is those a paragraphs you fucking retard

>I don't have the right to copy it you don't, in basically any country on earth. Otherwise creative industries wouldn't exist user. How would you fund game development if piracy was entirely legal, with no DRM systems in place and no authorities going after site hosts?
It's not about the value of the information you retard, it's about the difference between copying something and taking it. If you take a disk from a store the store (or their insurance or whatever) has to eat that loss and they have to pay to get a new copy of the game to sell. It is theft. The original item has been taken from its original owner. If you pirate a game nothing is taken from anyone, everyone how had the information that you pirated still has that information. It's copying without permission, it's not theft. You can argue about the morality of that however you want, but it's not stealing, it's a different crime, a different action.
I don't care about giant corporations or the shitty brown people and faggot liberals that sit in hot mobile trailers for 16 hours a day 7 days a week to make some game that I'm expected to pay 60 dollars for just to realize it's barely worth 20.

Reminder that Disney copied a bunch of old folk tales and has been making money off of them for about 100 years now

I could switch around your wording to make you sound like a gangbanging nig but im not bothering
Gangbanging niggers kill people and sell drugs and other crimes that have obvious victims. Copying data from a corporation is a victimless crime. But I wish it wasn't, because your average code monkey retard and idiot with a degree in game design deserves to be victimized. I wish every time I torrented some shitty game it took food off the plates of the devs.
So if you aren't a construction worker why do you insist on being paid? By your logic teachers, office workers, everyone who doesn't physically change the world is a wasted resource. Its just information bro xd
I'd even go a step further and say that not only is piracy theft. Even the second hand market for non-multiplayer driven games is also theft to some degree. Change my mind.

Because publishers have zero interest in preserving anything and with everything moving to digital piracy is the only way you'll be able to experience delisted games. Fucking alpha protocol just got pulled off steam, if you didn't buy it before you HAVE to pirate it now. >In b4 "it's not your IP you're not entitled to play it" go fuck yourself if that's your argument because if you gave a shit about this hobby you'd want to see it preserved. shit like this is why I'm against stadia and streaming. give it time and one day that you liked will only be a Wikipedia entry if you're lucky

Not reddit spacing btw.

I'll pay only if it's someone attached to that data. You repro apologists are worse than dindus; you're fucking serial plagiarists of video games.

Wages stagnating since the 70s are a problem. If they followed inflation minimum wage would be $34 an hour.
Politicians taking bribes and changing laws to benefit corporations or special interest multinationals are a problem.
Piracy wouldn't exist as a problem if the general population had money to spend. Same problem when games or consoles dont sell, its because only a minority of people arent shackling themselves to debt in education/healthcare to survive.
>sexual kinks are why women don't deserve to be respected Damn nigga I guess men don't deserve to be respected either cuz there's a shitload of faggots on this board that post about wanting to be a cute girl or wanting to have a big tiddy mommy gf.

Most girls will want to talk to you about what you call them in bed vs. Out of bed.
Also you're just slut shaming, girls are free to express what they want for the first time and it hasnt even been a hundred years, leave them be and improve yourself instead of being an incel.
