Why does /v/ HATE pirates so much?
There is literally nothing wrong with getting things for free.
they killed my family and took everything they had while they were on a boat trip

Her name is Kumiko and she is a lesbian who plays the euphonium.

Rich people didn't get rich by blowing all of their money.
>>337368715
I wish I could get things for free without being a faggot and feeling guilty if it's a good game.
>>337369114
Enjoying your McDonalds job?
>>337369667
>the only alternative
post smug Kumikos

If $60 is blowing all your money then you need to pick up more than one shift a week at McDonalds. Maybe then you wouldn't be as reliant on EBT. :^)
>>337369589
Why would you be a faggot and feel guilty?

>assumes he's one welfare
>has a problem with someone assuming he works at McDonalds
>/v/ hates pirates
Moralfags are an incredibly small minority. It's more likely people are just pretending to be moralfags to make you mad.

If you don't give your money to the few good developers who makes good games, they can't make more games.
>>337369783
I've never paid more than $50 for a video game and never will. Games prices aren't affected by inflation and instead have gone down in value due to competition.
>>337369783
What sort of person spends $60 when they could spend $0 ?
>>337369550
>lesbian
It's just adolescence.
>>337369783
You're projecting pretty hard there.

If I may interject for a moment, what you call "piracy" is actually unauthorized copying. Publishers often refer to copying they don't approve of as “piracy.” In this way, they imply that it is ethically equivalent to attacking ships on the high seas, kidnapping and murdering the people on them. Based on such propaganda, they have procured laws in most of the world to forbid copying in most (or sometimes all) circumstances. (They are still pressuring to make these prohibitions more complete.)
If you don't believe that copying not approved by the publisher is just like kidnapping and murder, you might prefer not to use the word “piracy” to describe it. Neutral terms such as “unauthorized copying” (or “prohibited copying” for the situation where it is illegal) are available for use instead. Some of us might even prefer to use a positive term such as “sharing information with your neighbor.”

I dont hate them but I'll explain the common reasoning of those who do:
>people complain about catering to casuals, but dont buy any games => only casuals pay => devs further cater to casuals
>>337369114
Didn't realize rich people didn't hire illegal immigrants
The majority of pirates on /v/ are just whiny faggots who think they're helping a cause when they pirate.
If I want a free game, I want a free fucking game, simple as that.
I don't hate it. The only thing I don't like about piracy is how ego-run those hackers are, and how they demand everyone to suck their dicks dry before releasing a break. Well, another thing is that less popular games tend to not get pirated at all or are stuck on old versions.

Not gay in the source material and the studio confirmed it was just "adolescence" in an interview. Sorry
>>337369783
Here's the choice, you could either pay $60 for something or $0 for something.
I choose $0
I got a "friendly" notice from my ISP to stop pirating
Either I get a VPN or pay out the ass
Or
God forbid
I actually pay for movies, anime, and video games
Kumiko the cutest
