Fortune on the catalog!
Make an actual real fucking game that's fun and I'll buy it. That means no naggers, no trannies, and any women have to either be fucking quiet or raped.
pretty much every retro shooter
youve bought them all, right?
Ah, forgot to mention a very important one:
>NOT MADE BY A WOKE TRANNY OR homosexual
What you really meant to say:
>meeeeeeeeeee meeeeeeeeeee meeeeeeeeeee meeeeeeeeeee meeeeeeeeeee, make everything about me, meeeeeeeeeee meeeeeeeeeee meeeeeeeeeee meeeeeeeeeee, I don't want to share the spotlight with anyone, I don't see anyone else as people, the world should revolve around me and only me, me me me me me, look at meeeeeeeeeee!
Why couldn't you just be honest?
>I don't want to share the spotlight with anyone, I don't see anyone else as people, the world should revolve around me and only me
There is unironically absolutely nothing wrong with this mentality
It is the mentality of a spoiled brat crying because it's his sibling's birthday and for once someone else is the center of attention. Is that what you are? Just a crying little brat?
I'm sorry anon, i can't take a frogposter seriously
Because you're determined to deny reality and will jump on any excuse to do so. I get that.
No, he means he's in the extreme majority of people who like to buy video games and like to shoot stuff, oggle hot women, big explosions, and stuff just being awesome. And games should probably target to that most common denominator if they want to succeed.
Your masturbatory aid(s) of LLGBTQAGQDZD++ targets the 1% of the weird people of the 10% of the progs of the 25% of gamers. You don't have a target demographics, and every times you insert a fat disabled black transwoman, you're really saying that it's all about you. Not your public.
>>OMG STOP PIRATING!!!
>make a good game then
>>OMG ITS NOT ALL ABOUT YOU
Get some fucking professional help. And then have a nice day. Actually you can just skip the professional help.

I only started to pirate when I saw games becoming pozzed. The only game I bought this year was AC6. Pirated the rest.
Devs get kicked out all the time for profits. Mtx is everywhere. Games are built around GaaS format.
Piracy only hurts publisher. Devs got paid already
wrong.
steam devs are paid per sale once Valve have sucked their 35% take.
How could you possibly be this retarded, and wrong?
You're trans hahaha
unironically only trannies call others trans
When did you decide you were trans?
I hope a pitbull bites off your sissyclitty and dilates you with its tail
remove intrusive drm
make games cheaper and fun
slap devs up until they just act humble in public and communicates with the fans
no indie dev that follow these 3 steps fails
the only way to fight pirates is with a strong navy

I'd argue their shit practices would go even more out of hand if you removed piracy
Hey guys OP here. I really really love sucking out nagger shit logs 😀 trans btw
>The European Commission paid €360,000 (about $428,000) for a study on how piracy impacts the sales of copyrighted music, books, video games, and movies. But the EU never shared the report—possibly because it determined that there is no evidence that piracy is a major problem.
>"This positive effect of illegal downloads and streams on the sales of games may be explained by the industry being successful in converting illegal users to paying users," the study authors write.
yep, that happend

>Hurting the industry
>By putting out devs out of business
I don't see how it hurts to keep the pool fresh from all stagnant shit that fell into it.
>It's seriously hurting the industry and putting lots of honest devs out of business.
Only if you pirate indie. Pirating AAA is morally correct, as giving money to corporations is always the incorrect choice.
Its a non issue t b h. Only third worlders pirate and they pirate AAA slop. Indie devs do it for passion not money. ANd they can only earn some money by being on gamepass. Good quality devs swim in money, Cdred, rockstar, baldurs gate, fromsoft etc. If its a slop it is what it is.
I'm literally pirating free games.
Pirated versions are always better, since they remove the bloat at best, change nothing at worst, and you tend to not be able to automatically update the game which is always a plus since QA is for Qretardedpajeets Afuckingshitup.
we accept it.
stop posting cats
this is a videogame board not a cat board
Cats are gay. Only women like cats and trannies.
sexo thread?
It really isn't a big enough problem that much more need to be done than just throwing on Denuvo for a few months, then removing Denuvo.
Fuck off, Piracy is important, your game doesn't need to exist and doesn't serve any purpose, you will never be unique.
I have always been an anti-piracy Chad my entire life, but even I have to accept piracy is VASTLY more morally sounds than always online GaaShit. If the only path to true ownership is to pirate, then AHOY it is.
Piracy doesn't affect me one bit. Anons torrent and I still get to play game. Anons torrent and I don't even notice the so-called "crippling DRM". Anons torrent and games still cost the same price.
It hasn't affected a single thing with my Vidya experience. I haven't torrented a game since I was a teenager but I don't even need to now since I can afford to buy whatever I like.
So, why would I want to combat it? Let people pirate if they want to, doesn't change shit.
Make prices in third world countries fair
Price games according to their inherit value, with $60 being the highest, games launch at quite a high price
Games need to be more than a minimum viable product for people to be more loyal to them as well
However none of these would actually raise profits in the short term so it won't happen
>Aislop
real
Why would you buy games when pirating is free, quicker, and convenient ?
You type "[name of game] download "free"" in google, and use the first result.
Click click click, in your HD, clickety click, installed, click click, playing.
No DRM, no bloatware, pre-patched, even pre-modded.
Why the fuck would WE combat it?
WE are the ones doing it
toxobrains deserve the rope
