I don't care why you pirate games (though the money excuse is still bullshit) but I do at least respect you admit you're a cheap fuck and that makes you somewhat better than the people that sit there and lie to themselves.

And yes, piracy does hurt developers.  That is why so many of them do not like putting their games on PC's or do not give their PC version half the attention they give their console versions.

 

From what I have read in interviews with developers, the main issue is the fact that they dont want to optimize the game for all different possibilities of Cpu, ram and video card.

Ail and twestern thank you for amusing me with your little crusade against piracy. It is fun to observe people battle against something that causes very little damage while ignoring a much bigger threat, used game sales.

 

I'm going to take a guess and say you don't work in the software industry.

I do so I actually have a clue of what damage it is causing to the industry I work in...



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
