I should start going to schools around the world showing how piracy affects the way of life so that our up and coming generations can stop this shenanigans and we can all be happy.

piracy is barely an issue. truly even if current numbers doubled it wouldn't be anything to worry about. Modern publishers just suck at budgeting.

Yea, it really has minimal to no effect on the amount of profits or losses a company has, as a majority of piraters weren't going to buy the game in the first place. If anything, one may even argue that of the few lost sales for people that may have purchased a game but instead pirated it, the overall effect of people pirating a game and getting the word out that so and so is a sweet game may actually lead to more profits.
That's not to say that the idea of piracy is a good one, though, I just hate hearing people blaming these companies losing money on that as well, as it is absolute bull shit.

And there again, the usual BS argument for piracy surface again...

Are you shitting me? I'm massively against it, just sick of people saying it leads to losses.
