Yep. Im ok with people pirating stuff. There is different shit happening in live. Just steal what you need and move on without making it bigger than it needs to be.
But acting like you isnt leeching of others people work, like you are doing a honourable thing and the only ones against it are greedy corporations is fucking cringe. And then there is also people who make it into their personality lol.
I would’ve linked website if it wouldnt get me banned. Idk, maybe i can link it in pm, not sure if there are rules against it.
Regarding outliers/variation/sample:are you saying that if i would do the same experiment i wouldnt see the same picture for other critically aclamed titles (idk, celeste, StS, etc.)?
Its just funny that pirates keep saying that they steal games to stick out to greedy companies and to punish them for making bad games. Yet when you point out that they steal good indie games just as much (or even more if you take into account overall sales of those games) all you get is insults.
All that hubris while providing 0 statistics themself.
Ah, typical thief jerker, almost as if fresh from reddit :)
Another answered the same, so i got an example of fallout 4 with 45k downloads
Oh wow, your anecdotic evidence taken out of the ass, without any stat how many people actually do it to back it up, so it means nothing, really blown up my brain, good job. :)
Ironic that you are talking about stupidity lol.
Still better than your argument, or rather, lack of it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Okay, fallout 4-45k.
64k if you count the second torrent on the list separatelly (undertale would be 67k in that case).
Thats because some anti-war people have unrealistic expectations to what they consider support. Not enough to just not like it. Anything less then beaten up by police and lost yout job on protest is not enough. Hell, before Navalny got to prison there were rumours, every now and then, that he is kremlin project to divide opposition, so the barrier to count as antiwar could be even “actively tortured in prison” for some.
When in reality 75% of the population dont give a fuck and wont care both if putin conquers europe or if they are separated from moscow by 4 new country borders.
Okay, lets see some critically aclaimed indie game(undertale), as indie game undoubtly deserving to be bought, and compare it to AAA game series released the same year which deserves to be pirated, according to community. I will use call of duty because its the type of game series i see often said to be the reason to pirate by thiefs: AAA, high price, every year title, shitty studio.
I use very popular local torrent website, as i dont want to search what is the current most used worldwide website for it, and if it tracks number of downloads.
Undertale(2015)-51k downloads.
CoD black ops 3(2015)-54k downloads.
So now answer me, why? Is undertale the same quality shit as call of duty? Or is it even worse considering that it is way less popular, so in corelation of pirated copes divided by copies bought, more people prefered to buy CoD?
Its funny that people like you believe in this bullshit, and then shit on russians for believing in propoganda as if you dont do the same :)
Yeah, because pirates never steal from indie developers and act like assholes if those developers ask not to do it. Those damn parasites asking to be paid for work, gee.
Well then they probably should’ve said that instead of saying something unrelated to the point ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Subs are kinda like tip, except you get something in return. Usually its emotes you can use on any stream on twitch. Some streamers can make other stuff like sub only discord channel but its optional.
Gift subs are exactly the same except you give the benefits to some other chaters.
“Supporting creators is fine, but supporting them more is so stupid”
Ok LUL.
“Lifted millions out of poverty”
Some people were effectevelly not much different from slaves up until 1970 as they had no passport, worked for food (oh, sorry, for workdays, which is even worse) and required permission to move from kolhoz. Ah tankies never change.
All what communists did for citizens is: lost the election, overturned it with force and forced millions of people back to medieval society with fancy goals.
Why would they need to make games when they can just sit on their ass and because of steam monopoly on games storefronts they would still be paid?
“As for not listening to TF2 players, I’m pretty sure the game is still pretty popular so they must be doing something right.”
Like what? They arent doing anything but release workshop cosmetics lol. Did they even fixed the bot problem after all this time?
