What the fuck? No that is illegal.

AC4 is good. Not that many pirate games out there sadly OP.
>>
I pirate on 3ds only, I do play PC games but don't pirate them
>>
>>342479167
No because I'm not an edgy criminal
>>
No I viking them.

>>342479167
I've torrented like, 2 games in my life. Some hentai game and that game where you try to kill yourself as a baby. But times I was given a direct link that automatically started downloading in u-torrent.

Other than that, I don't particularly know how, or care to know how to pirate games since I usually just guy games on sale or from key sites.
>>
I pirated MN9.
Holy shit what a fucking mess.

Only games that aren't sold anymore

You know I really try, AC4, Witcher. ME3. I just can't stand these games anymore and I just boot up my free to play tank/boat/plane games instead which just defeats the entire purpose of being a pirate.

>do you pirate games?
Depends on whether it's still being sold. I still love to play SNES, PS1, and old PC games for example, and I feel not a single twinge of guilt of pirating something rather then paying retarded money to some random fag for a cart/original disc, none of which goes to a dev anyway. If the devs had them up somewhere easy to get a normal digital rip of (suitable for emulation/virtualization, no DRM shit) for a couple of bucks then I'd absolutely buy them, or even re-buy them in the case of games I once owned and lost. Something like Chrono Trigger would be worth tossing another $5 at no hesitation. But if they don't want to sell it then I don't see how they can bitch at me not buying it.

I don't pirate new stuff though. I'm not a collector, I'm not a Day One'er, I'm not poor, and I'm not (that much) of an asshole so there's no point.
>>
>>342479167

I see no reason to risk my computer safety over Videogames.
>>
>>342479167
yes, in order to try them for a few hours
if they're good I'll buy it
>>
Yeah. Really depends on how I'm feeling at the time.
>>
>>342484630
It would take a serious amount of retardation to get a virus by trying to download a pirated game.
>>
Only pirate shit like telltale games, cod, ac, indie games that are more than 10 bux
>>
>>342484930
That's why I said risk.
>>
>>342479167
I used to when I was a poorfag without a job... nowadays I just buy em when it's on sale for cheap.... unless it's a uncensored weeb game with lots of fanservice, then I buy day 1.

>struggle to afford food
>get asked if I pirate games

I don't remember buying a videogame in the last 5-10 years that was piratable, beside spending 60 yuropoops on Path of Exile.

Only after a certain amount of time when devs have made their money. Paying for 15 year old+ games is a joke.
>>
I pirate a lot but I don't play many games, most of the time I money cheat to finish them fast and move to the next game.
>>
>>342479167
I literally pirate anything by a AAA studio. Indie devs usually make shit games but I'll buy the one or two a year that are kind of okay when they're on sale.

Of course I own/owned ps1,ps2,ps3,psp,gameboy sp,nds,wii,xbox360 all hacked/flashed never bought a game for them.
Only games I ever bought were gameboy sp game because I didnt know how to pirate games for it.
On pc I only buy games I want to play multiplayer on.

I always pirate EA and Ubisoft games

Not even for free.

There is absolutely no reason to pay money for free stuff and I'm not saving up money to use it on that

It's actually much easier on consoles
On pc you have to worry about the crack not working well, or incompatibilities, patches, on console it's much easier, you just burn the disc/copy to the hdd and it's done

I feel you on this. I don't pirate new games, but I don't really care about downloading a rom for a game that is in no way being sold anywhere for the original developers to get my money. If the game is available to buy, I'll buy them later on.

Why would I pay 30 dollars for Shadow Hearts to some random neckbeard to get my money, and not the developers?

i found myself enjoying games less when i pirated them. you get no online interaction, you lose motivation to finish games because hey,you didn't even have to pay to get it. pirating is a miserable experience, you're better off buying games that you actually enjoy and supporting devs who deserve it.

Are you retarded? You can get a good used, last gen smart phone for 30-100 bucks. Even with a shtity job you can save up for that, dollar by dollar.

Phone plans without a contract are only 30-40 dollars a month. And having a telephone number is a necessary 'luxury' is you actually want to be able to get jobs or housing, you autistic fuck.
>>
Yes, because I can. If you actually pay for things available for free you're either very rich and very stupid
>>
>>342495685
Personally speaking, I've never really ran into issues on pirated games for PC. Open the ISO, install and play. Games being cracked have come a long way from how it used to be and the process couldn't be more streamlined these days.

It took me about 5 minutes to get Metal Gear Solid V working, from the download finishing to successfully playing without issue. That game is protected by Denuvo and there were several steps to get it working, including changing my timezone, but it works. You're just lazy/stupid.

Yes, because I play PC games on a shitty laptop and I never know if something will run well or not. I end usually end up buying those that run well and I enjoy, which so far are like two games Dankest Dungeon and Endless Legend.

Otherwise I play on my PS4 and I buy a couple of games every month. More than I can afford right now, but I get bored and my wallet starts itching.
