This is why we have budgets

[–]AnAnxiousDev 31ポイント32ポイント  (3子コメント)

Indeed. Seems hard to grasp for some people that we can buy a GPU and also have money for games.

Plus with things like Humble Bundle my budget for games can be like $15 a month and get a ton.

Console players don't understand budgets... they spend $600 every couple of years on a brick with 2 controllers that wants to be a PC when it grows up.

Like half of the games I play are free anyways, so I don't really ever feel the need to pirate anything... (League, WoW, and Hots)

You can get a month free subscription with a lot of things.

It's where I noticed I don't like the game anyways, so I didn't have to spend a penny.

The free month is used more for whales that play. People are content for whales. Btw whales are people that spend a lot of money

You can pay with gold and it's so easy to make gold in that game it's essentially free

From my personal experience:

All PC owner I know use Steam, humble bundles, green man gaming, isthereanydeal, bundle star, cheapshark etc... and 90% never pirate, the rest usually buy the game once the price drops.

All console player I know have at least 1 device modified to some extent to get pirated games (handled linkers/wii with a huge hard drive and a custom channel for most).

[–]Gemeye 4ポイント5ポイント  (5子コメント)

I pirated the mass effect series, loved it, and bought it through origin. I don't know how a console player gets to test a game like that. Or even finds out about games to try, since I can just change to a different tab on my gaming device to do so.

[–]nhikoBut Steam is awesome too :) 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

When I was wayyyyy younger (Steam was only used for counter strike... yes I'm that old), I pirated a lot of games, played very few. In that list I LOVED the Soul River / Blood Omen series. One of the 1st thing I did when I had a job has been buying every single one of those games on GoG.

I mean setting up USB loading on Wii's is a must if you're a poor college smash T.O. I own the games I've pirated because ripping dual layer Wii discs take a helluva long time.

Holy shit the double standard. 'Most of my pc mates are legal and stuff, but hurr durr ALL of my console friends have modded consoles for pirating' like wtf man, I never had any friend who modded a console, who are these friends?

[–]nhikoBut Steam is awesome too :) 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

it's not double standard, it's the ppl I know around me. It's not meant to be a globalisation, just what I can observe.

And those friends are in general parents, piracy on console is an easy win: no buget cost on a machine that can't really be messed with (compared to a PC).

I went through a different route with android handled, the game are dirty cheap to begin with... but sure, my kids can't play the "real" mario/pokemon...

[–]BigDingDongMHHH 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ah okay, I understand now. I didn't really get that part with the console pirating, that's what made me concerned.

[–]Lunatitchi5 2500K, MSI GTX 970 Gaming 17ポイント18ポイント  (6子コメント)

278 games on Steam, 20 on Uplay, 16 on Origin, and numerous on sites like GoG, Gamersgate, etc. Yup, Piracy is surely PC 101 :x

I can't even remember the last time I pirated a game o.o

[–]ggKevini5 6500 / R9 390 / 8GB RAM 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

The last game I pirated was Dying Light just to see if it would work on my PC at the time. I had a Core 2 Duo paired with an R7 260x and 4 gigs RAM. It didn't work very well, so I uninstalled it. I've since got better hardware. I still haven't purchased Dying Light, but I don't have the pirated version either. That game deserves the money, IMO, I just don't have it at the moment.

I used to pirate them, but with the simplicity of steam/GoG, it just becomes such hassle just for a couple bucks, it's not worth the time anymore

[–]Lunatitchi5 2500K, MSI GTX 970 Gaming 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Agreed, so much easier to just pick it up for (usually a discounted) few bucks.

[–]MotherfuckingMooseSpecs/Imgur here 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

The only games I've ever pirated are old games that require CDs and a code. For example the original Battle for Middle Earth.

[–]Shadyssi7 6700 - GTX 960 4GB - 8GB DDR4 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

I pirate shitty ports cause the developers obviously don't want my $$. Mostly Ubisoft titles unfortunately.

[–]Lunatitchi5 2500K, MSI GTX 970 Gaming 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

I used to pirate games as trials really, but it's too much hassle these days. My ISP (Virgin Media) is one of those bitches that complied with the block requests of torrent etc. sites.

I've got a decent job n stuff so I don't mind wasting a bit of money (though I'd prefer not to :p), though I do tend to wait for launch reviews before I buy anything.

To be fair, I took a considerable chunk from my bank account when I bought my 980 Ti. But I have one of these things called "a job", and I had more money next week.

Sadly, this is me. I don't pirate though, just a victim of paying for my rig with my Rig+Steam money. I did just recently buy all the witchers and H1Z1 so they should last me a good amount of play time :)

[–]TheOriginalSamBellSteam ID Here 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

That's funny because thanks to Steam sales and offers from other places, like Humble Bundle, I have almost 400 legally acquired games in my library. Pretty much the only thing I don't pirate.

Idk, Origin Access feels like leasing a car instead of buying it. Part of me wants to feel like I actually own the games I bought. However, your entire library on steam is also digital, so i guess i don't really own anything.

No man. I do the opposite of piracy. Instead of playing games I didn't pay for, I'm paying for games I don't play.

My friend just got his first month of "Origin access" and damn that thing is soooo good! For 4-5$ / month (something like that) you can play so many games, all great titles like bf4 PREMIUM, bf3, bf hardline titanfall, fifa 16, even plants vs zombies garden warfare

honestly, When I was a kid I would pirate games... and to be fair it was Doom. Because of my adult status, I have purchased all of them to make up for stealing the .WAD files... The only time I pirate it up now is if the game is unavailable to purchase(Im looking at you Punisher... If only I could buy you)

hmmm, 11 months ago i sold both my consoles to build a pc...havent pirated a game once. then again, when the games are so cheap all the time...why would i?

EDIT To be honest, ive spent less than the cost of 3 games at console price and have 100 some games...pc gaming is just too expensive i guess. Thanks to humble bundle and the gobs of other retailers.

Hmmm... last time I bought a piece of hardware for my computer was a GTX780 on launch day. That's $650, and it came out... 3 years ago? Yup, exactly 3 years ago.

Planning on a GTX1080 (partner card, not Founders Edition), so that's another ~$600, three years since the last purchase, not a bad track record IMO. And obviously the rest of my system is quite a bit older as well. I did not upgrade my system until a bit after 2nd gen Core i parts were out. Was on a C2D Q9550 E0 before this.
