How do you fellow poorfags afford video games now that none of the major releases can be pirated?

my D44M torrent's finished in another hour.
I already know it's going to be shit, as I watched the early leak stream 2 days ago, but I just want to prove a point to the still optimistic morons around the world.

Besides that, no "major release" has been worth jack shit in ages.

Dark Souls III was piratable in the week it came out.

which ones of these "major releases" are actually worth playing though?

notice how you don't hear anything about all of those "AAA" games with denuvo?

By not being a poor neetfag like you. Most of us have jobs and can easily afford video games, you poorfucks will never understand the feeling of earning 1200$ a week. :^)

I don't because major releases look like shit.
Plus I don't pirate.

I have a job and am not a fucking idiot with my money.

I make ~288 a week. I've bought only 3 games this year so far. Only other games I'll prolly buy this year are Dishonored 2 and Deus Ex.

I buy them at half price on release because PC master race.

I hack whatever system I can for free games, gt my 3DS hacked and have about 60 games downloaded to it, got 2 spaces preserved in my menu just for Pokemon Sun/Moon.

You got away with stealing games before now you can't. Maybe you should just acknowledge that the price of entry is just too high for you and you just aren't entitled to experience things you didn't pay for.

I pirate indies sometimes and feel super bad about it.

I spend money on vidya instead of food. no regrets.

Where's this meme coming from? Piracy's still completely possible and majorrity of games on PC can be bought for at least 20% off even on release day. I remember buying Titanfall deluxe edition for $38 bucks off some Mexican site on release day, and then buying Street Fighter V for $31 on release, as well as MKX with the Kombat pack for like $30 bucks on release.

Only consolefags can't get games for cheap, and they also can't really pirate unless they're on Wii U.

but dark souls 3 was cracked, and half of denuvo games were cracked

Buy used

What's the difference between buying used games and pirating anyways? Both have the same result of the company who made it not seeing a dime.
>>
>>337361151
>How do you fellow poorfags

Got a job. Not the best paying job but it's enough for everything. $576 per week after taxes. Good enough for a used car, rent, food and vidya. And enough to put away a little bit into a ira each year.

simple
i'm interested in 1 game every 5 years if i'm lucky ,since..12 fucking years so i dont even bothering pirating shit

They aren't going to play it and tell others to buy but also are going to go around telling everyone why it's shit and not to buy it.

Pirates do have an affect on sales dumb faggot. What effect they have is up to publishers.

>>337364695
Yes but one gives another person capital to buy another game and the other doesn't. Not that it makes a difference since most pirates weren't going to buy it or couldn't afford to anyway but they still can give positive word of mouth which is more precious than one sale.

I've rented around 5 different places in the past 16 years of living on my own and I can say it's far better than owning.

Water Heater goes out? Manger fixes it. Roof needs new tiles? Manger fixes it. New fridge, stove, washing machine, or any fucking appliances? Manger fixes it. Hell I don't even have to mow my lawn yet I can still have my BBQs on it.

All that extra money I'm not spending on fixing shit or buying new shit I've invested in hunting land and video games.
