| JoeTheBro said: This is one of the stupidest things I've heard in a long time! Basically he is saying this situation below is ok. "Buy this car, it's great!" "Ya I don't really want to buy it but I'll take it for free" "No problem sir, here's your car" Next person "Hey I'd like that car too please. Can I get it for free too?" "If I said no, would you still buy it?" "I guess" "Then no. Sorry but unlike the other guy who didn't really want it, you have to pay" I swear the world keeps losing brain cells. |
This still isn't how this works.
Aquiring copy =/= theft, the car would still be standing in the lot for someone else to buy
What GOG is saying is this; "Take this car for a test drive, perhaps you'll want to buy it!"
Still a better attitude than; "Fuck you, we'll ruin your games with DRM and everyone but the pirates will be affected by this."
zarx; you have nothing pirated on your PC? MP3's, TV shows, movies? There are more horrible things to do in this world than pirate stuff, I hardly think pirating games makes you a bad person by default. What about services like Grooveshark or free Spotify? Content available for use to end users without being paid for, its not like commercials income will rack up a fortune (and Grooveshark doesn't even have advertising at all).
PS: For the record, no I don't pirate my games but I do download TV shows on torrent sites since they either show up here a year after everywhere else or simply isn't available at all.
