I use to be huge into piracy back in like 08-09. What happened to the scene? Now I don't even into games anymore. Last game I was into was Dark Souls before it became a meme game.

1. Being Arrested.

2. Have a live & Got a job (Some of them Working For Denuvo)

3. New Scene nowadays is just some script kiddies who only can crack simple steam protection.

At the current rate society is going, poor people will be extinct by 2050. Most outreach programs and programs designed to help the poor are axed and companies and the government are allowed to fuck them over even further in any way they want, combined with the US going further and further down the corporatocracy rabbit hole to the point of being a breath away from electing the first CEO of the US
>>
>>333572592
I didn't play every game that's come out since the dawn of devices that can play videogames. It's basically 20 years of backlog.

Nah, the US will just regress into India 2. The rich will be completely untouchable, outside the law and the poor will live in literal shit.

Well it's true. Current poor people will be dead. Then the next highest 20% will be the poorest.

It's funny to me how words like "socialism" are villainous when capitalism has brought nothing but destruction upon the world, with the exception of some kind of false hope which I guess has some benefits.

Just pretend to be a girl on Steam, insta-free games. All you need is an anime avatar and ERP skills

Video games comparatively to other hobbies is cheap as fuck. If you can't afford it, get your life together.
>>
>>333573662
Depends on if you buy all AAA games new, extra deluxe packages etc. Depends if you buy all the DLC for P2W games. You can easily spend thousands per month on video games.

Humble Bundle my family member of dark pigmentation.

My steam library is massive thanks to years of bundles, on top of games I buy when they're (usually) on sale.

This. SNES, GBA, N64, PSX, GC, old PC, PS2, Wii, DS, if there's ever a time in your life to make an old backlog, it's now. I bet some of you knuckle heads haven't even played the first Dungeon Keeper.

Shit I spend maybe $100 on games a month and I still have a massive backlog and it's only expanding.

There are still hundreds of retro games you can emulate and DRM free indie games you can pirate.
>>
>>333573662
when you play vidya on faggot console its dirt cheap yea
>>
>>333574260

>DRM free shit indie games

Fixed
>>
>>333568795
We will get free games eventually, just wait a year or so
>>
Contrary to what /v/ memesters say, PC is in fact the poorfag choice.
You can buy the games cheap or outright steal them.
There are many free games available.
If you're willing to play emulators and old PC gamers a toaster is enough.
>>
>>333574349

You get what you pay for.

But you can literally brute-force all the games until you find something you like because money isn't an issue.
>>
>>333574171
Video games is my primary hobby, so much that I even spend time on this fucking board and it's still cheaper year by year than my random other shit that I don't spend nearly as much time on.

I have no fucking clue how anyone over 18 can't afford it, what with the amount of free games, cheap sales and quick price drops.

>tfw really need to stop impulse buying because it's hurting my savings

I cannot help buy into the hype every time and also buy shit on sale. I'm the worst but at least I have a big backlog. I have deluxe editions for dark souls 3 and Ffxv paid for, that's it I am done for the rest of the year..except for resident evil 4 coming to psn and maybe doom and maybe if something is really cheap like FF XIII-2 and LR because I haven't played past the first. SFV looks fun too and can't forget about P5..then again I haven't played persona or SMT so I can cop some of those as well for around $10.
>>

nigga PC is the choice choice. If you're poor you can choose to do shit cheap, if you have money you can sink more money into it.

You can't tempt me jews

>>333574262
A decent PC is 1000-1500 and lasts 3-4 years. If you can't muster up $400 a year to maintain your primary hobby, you've got bigger fucking problems than not being able to play the hot new releases.
>>
>>333568795
I think its dead only for this year though. People who help pirate the games only want to experiment. You'll live OP.
>>
>>333574125
fine then, name an alternative site.
>>
>>333574570
I don't know how either.

I (soft) limit myself to around $100 because I just wanna be aware of what I spend. More about self control because if I wanted to there's maybe six games I'd want to by this second...though realistically I know it'll be a while before I get to some of them. Deluxe Dark Souls 3 on PC and Hyrule Warriors on the N3DS count for this month.

Last month I said fuck it and got said N3DS and a few games for it.

...like I said. A (soft) limit...
>>
>>333568795
>pirated 2 new releases this week
The fuck you on about nigga?
>>
>>333574881
I don't have a limit and I still hit average about $100 a month, it's not an expensive hobby.

Piracy being dead (which, yeah right) is a much bigger issue than just "lol no more free games", it opens up the door for companies to take away games you've already bought to encourage you to buy new versions. Imagine if your earthbound cart stopped working because Nintendo wanted you to buy it on the wii or whatever.

That's the world we're stepping into. This is why people pushed against the banning of used games on consoles.

Remember PT? It's a warning about all digital content. That it can be taken away at the publisher's whim. This is why "piracy being dead" is a big deal, not for pirates, but for the paying customers.
>>
>>333574954
Not at all. I know smokers who spend around $150 a month on their favorite brand and that shit astonishes me.

Rise of the Tomb Raider

Crappy Canadian dollar and high taxes, a game for 69 US ends up being like 120CAD
>>
>>333575130
I care about one game on that list and only because I enjoy blowing shit up.

I won't be buying it for a while longer since they are gonna do what they did with 2 and introduce all kinds of new interesting shit later. So I'll buy the super special GOTY double magnum bigdick edition when it's on sale.

What a fucking loss for me. Fifteen dollarydoos.
>>
>>333574659
>just dropped almost 1000 on a new rig this last week

The difference between an i5/970 and an i3/610 is like night and fucking day. Being able to play games made after 2008 is like a whole new fucking world. I don't even care that my shit is already outdated and will be obsolete within a few years, I have an enormous backlog to tear through now
>>
>>333575326
I'm Canadian dude. Don't buy new releases or mass buy them on the 30% off E3 deals and cancel the ones you lose interest in.
>>
>>333573270


>nothing but destruction upon the world

What have those dirty Romans done for us, brothers? Other than roads, plumbing, education, written word, law, architecture, security, farming techniques, trade and wealth? What have they done? NOTHING!

WTF???
I played all except RTB.
neo /v/ are wanna be pirates.
