I haven't paid for a videogame in the last 7 years.
I always pirate games. Always. My favorite ones to pirate are from small indie companies.
I email them afterwards stating I pirated their game and inform them that I also fucked their mothers.
Videogames will never see a single cent from me, ever.
ok
Good. If Indies keep making games the market will never crash and we'll never be able to reshape the industry and remove the cancer of lootboxes
Redpilled.
If the money from loot boxes goes towards supporting the game for the next decade, then there should be more lootboxes. Only autistics and children buy them, who gives a fuck.?
But the money isn't used for that so you have no point
Based
If anything it's the opposite. Why use the money from loot boxes to fund improvements in other areas when you can simply reinvest, make more lootboxes, and turn a bigger profit?

>Credits roll
>Thank you for supporting our game
Kek fucking retards.
>Why yes, I DO steal video games! However did you know?
Extremely based, that's wonderful if you really write the emails
How would you know what the money is used for? Are you privy to their accounting books? Selling lootboxes to aspies that need to collect every cosmetic item has 0 effect on me. The money leeched out of these retards, on some level will go to supporting the game, developing new games, paying people’s salaries etc. in effect, retards are paying the tab so I can have more things to enjoy. I hope the Big Vidya lobby convinces congress to make lootboxes mandatory.
absolutely based and redpilled. I also pirate every single video game I own.
I'd like to personally thank all the pathetic virgins and whales for supporting game devs so that they keep making video games for me to enjoy for free.
Why make a video game at all? Why not just break into your home and rob you. Some sort of product is required.
I pirate games buy them on sale for 5 dollars years later if they were good
You're, dare I say it, an absolute champ
Because there are examples of exactly this in games already, and not just with lootboxes.
>Heroes of the Storm's entire 2.0 update was doing less content updates and adding lootboxes
>Overwatch has become incredibly stagnant but every recycled event/holiday has new loot boxes
>Riot has done nothing to improve their game that doesn't involve making more money, and they've gotten progressively greedier especially this year
>FIFA's entire marketing strategy is built around releasing the same game every year so people will spend thousands on player cards with each new iteration
There's no reason to work on making the games better when whales will eat shit all day, and the non-shit eaters suffer as a consequence
holy seething
>cue Yea Forums seething
you're free to believe this or not but i have a dedicated PC that runs a script 24/7 which continuously torrents and deletes fallout 4. at any given time half of my internet bandwidth is dedicated to pirating fallout 4
>A GENTLEMAN AND A GAMER
A toast to you
I have one single question for you user, then I won't bother you anymore.
How can you be so fucking Based?
PIRATECHADMIND
lmfaooo
Is it worth joining a private tracker? Sometimes its very hard to find an updated version of some games.
>pirating games
Based.
>posting frogs
Unbased.
I am conflicted.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
BETHESDA IS GOING TO GO BANKRUPT IF YOU DONT STOP!!!
S- STOOOOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>I want people to think I am the joker.
>in an anonymous board
Cringe
That's pretty cool OP, but I like to take it a step further. I'm not just pirating their games, I'm profiting off of them.
I just grab the GoG installer I got from Piratebay for some shitty Indie Game (because of the small file size), repack it and just upload it on Steam, under the same name but sell it for half the price, or even less.
I wallow in smug joy as the following weeks are spent shifting through hundreds if not thousands of hate e-mails from the "oh so poor" butthurt developers and their fans, demanding me to take down their game, threatening me with lawsuits or notifications from Steam that they've terminated my account. I laugh everytime because by the time they suspsended it, I had alrady gotten a good chunk of money from people quick enough to purchase their games from ME.
I just make a new e-mail, new Steam account and the wheel of lucrative seething turns again. Fucking having a blast.
A toast! But please do tell me gentleman how does Steam not track you down since they have your payment info?
A toast for all of those who haven't paid a single penny for any game ever
>only having one paypal account
Also they don't really give a shit. Their customer support gets millions of e-mails per day, which is why it takes a couple of days (sometimes weeks) for my pirated games to get banned from their site.
same
it keeps the conscience clear
My man, you’re speaking a different language than me. Those sound like problems for Trannies, Koreans and thirdworlders. Perhaps play some games that aren’t terrible. But don’t pay for them. Embrace your inner chad.
>when you don't even have to download story heavy movie games to pirate them, and you just watch them on youtube
Yepp, I'm thinking this is based.
I pirate porn and never buy it
this but unironically
