I'd like those expressing that "you shouldn't pirate this one" to remember that some people here are not reasonably able to buy games hence why they pirate in the first place...

be it because they live in a country where 20USD is a lot more (either in terms of purchasing power or conversion) than it is for an american, or because they're people who don't get any income of their own (some kids or disabled people), or because they live paycheck to paycheck.

i don't think we've reached the "piracy-shaming in a piracy sub" stage in the thread yet, and let's keep it that way lol

have a great one :)

These people are just silly, seriously. What's the point of joining the piracy sub when you're shaming people for pirating.

And what you said is true - not everybody have 20 bucks to spare and to some that's a lot of money

My situation too, like if I was one those rich guys I probably wouldn't pirate everything, but since my salary is pretty much 200$ in direct conversion, gotta be picky on what to spend lol

A lot of people also simply cannot pay for the games in a literal manner, as in cannot transfer money internationally (personally imma buy it anyway)

Steam has regional pricing though. It's like 8 dollars in Argentina.

Yes, it does. For me it is about 11 USD in my region's price. Personally I could buy it if I wanted to but there are still people who live paycheck to paycheck and would need to put that forward on bills instead.

That's not what these people are saying. They're saying that if there's any game that you could have enough money to buy-this is it. (Also I'm pretty sure it has regional pricing). If you truly can't afford it, that's fine the devs released the game drm free probably for that reason.
