    Not everyone deserves to own and play every game that gets released either. Being poor isn’t an excuse to steal.

      People also deserve to be paid better but I don’t see that happening. Maybe your revolt could be better aimed than getting all huffy about poor people playing games rather than staring at a wall.

        No one deserves to be paid wild money to be able to spend it on luxury items like video game consoles and every game that gets released.

        You’re just justifying stealing in the same way people justify looting as “people are starving and stealing to feed their family” while they’re stealing luxury handbags and iPhones.

        Just because you can’t afford something it doesn’t give you the right to steal it.

          “No one deserves to be paid wild money to spend it on luxury items” but people must pay for them. Huh. Sounds like you don’t think anyone should have games.

          Or whatever. Frankly I couldn’t care less what sort of moralizing melodrama you throw at me, it just make it sound like you never had real problems, that something so insignificant gets you worked up.

          I could talk about the differences between piracy and stealing, I could talk about the immorality in the gaming industry and the job market, but I doubt you’ll listen so I’ll say this instead: People will still keep pirating because they can and if that bothers you, that’s your problem.

            Yes, people that want a luxury item should pay for it 😂. Gaming isn’t an essential human right. You’re not owed every videogame you want.

            Also it’s pretty clear that I’m not the one getting worked up here lol.

                So no one can take a few seconds to reply to posts without being upset? Interesting take on forums.
