Around 43% of the respondents stated that they never or rarely pay for their pirated games. Keep in mind this is on PC where somebody can pirate a game, wait for a steam sale, and buy the game at a massively discounted rate, all while technically being able to check the "I paid for my pirated game" box. But there's no steam sale of either BotW or Persona 5, so they can't do that sort of thing. This drives piracy rates for these games up significantly. Also, keep in mind that if you pirate a $60 game on release day, and then pay $10-$15 years later, you are still a theif, because you didn't pay what was asked of you at the time. So here we have a poll which asks incredibly softball questions, giving people every out imaginable, and we still get around 43% of pirates admitting to not paying for their games. |
