When if ever do you find it okay to start pirating and emulating a game?

Yes, a lot of the times loll. I mostly do it whenever I am not sure about a game and/or I think the publisher is trying to hide something or just there isn't enough info about it or the game is just unplayable with the DRM in place... If I do end up liking it, I will buy the game (like I have on steam for example) but if I don't like it, I won't pay for it. I generally know if I will like a game within an hour or so and if I don't like it, then I wont play past that hour

The other thing is that when they pull off shit like MGS V: GZ where the game is enjoyable but the whole game is only an hour long... And the $30 asking price no way justifies that purchase...

Like its hard for me to go and blindly buy a game these days just cause of how missleading the publishers/developers are unless of course its highly recommended by friends

I guess in a way, paying for something becomes more valuable in that sense when you have the freedom to play all the games for free but oh well, I do pay for mediocre games from time to time provided there in one condition, they are anime!!!
