minus-squareKairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoIf I’m low on cash, I pirate. When I have cash, I buy up the games I want. If it’s a game I enjoyed years ago and it’s on sale, I grab it. The idea that piracy results in lost sales is flawed. No one I know who pirates can purchase the game to begin with. Is a library piracy? No? Cool, discussion over.
