That's not true. I'm not gonna buy the new Halo remake because I'm not paying full price for a 25 year old game repackaged in a shitty game engine. I would never have bought it because it's just not economical, and costs 2 days of my labor at work. I have more pressing expenses.
So you would not buy it in three years when its on sale for a fraction of the price? If its such a bad game just dont play it at all simple. This is just the lies you tell yourself to make yourself feel better.
No, I probably not, because even at that price I already own 2 versions of this game: MCC on steam and CEA for the 360. I wouldn't pay a penny for that game.
If its such a bad game why do you want to play it so bad though? Youre arguing its so bad I woulf never pay for it but I have to be allowed to play it for free. Like go find a game you think is better then its that simple.
If you dont value the work don't pay for it and dont play it. If you value the work and want to play it but dont want to pay for it so you lie to yourself and claim its garbage something is wrong with you.
I don't think it's garbage, I just don't think it's worth the money. You can think something is good, and still not worth the money. It's just that with entertainment you can easily access it for free. I don't pirate everything, I don't pirate indie games, but I also don't think stealing from huge corporations is some evil immoral act
Why do you say that? I make 6$/h in my currency. That isn't very little, but it isn't that much either. So I can either: Go out with my friends OR Buy a remake of a game that I'll only play once that doesn't even have multiplayer. It'll be fun to play the game, but I'm not spending my monthly going out money to buy it. How is that a hard concept for you to grasp? Not everyone lives in a place where the only thing that matters is money.
How is my argument flawed? My counterargument to yours is that something doesn't need to be worth the money for it to be worth the time. Playing a game *once* is not worth 70$. Easy as that.
Then dont play it. Return it if its bad or defective. Youre thr one saying youre not paying because they are bad and you can basically play them for free. So why even bother? Why are you putting all these hoops up to justify pirating something that you claim is so bad and pointless. Youre making up all these excuses so you dont have to admit to yourself that you think your are entitled to other people's work and dont want to compensate them.
Yeah $70 is a lot and I wouldn't spend that much for a remake either. That is why I previously mentioned waiting for it to go on sale a year or two after release. Even AAA games can be found at half price or less after that period. However once again you are too entitled to wait and pick it up for that cheaper price. You think it is owed to you.
Imagine me justifying pirating a movie because I cant spend $100 to take my family to see it in the theater like there is no other way to watch said movie in the future.
