    It seems you are possibly discussing piracy or piracy-related topics. Although this is neither against reddit's rules nor our own, it's important to remember to be responsible. Content creators can only create said content because they receive funding from you.

    Piracy is an important freedom in our sometimes restrictive societies, and it's important to remember these things before you pass judgement on people discussing it:

    • Some pirate games because they believe the creator doesn't deserve financial compensation for the state of the product that was released.
    • Some pirate something that they already bought simply to remove the DRM.
    • Some pirate to re-obtain something they already bought.
    • Some pirate to try products before they make a financial commitment to them.
    • Some pirate simply because they cannot afford it.
    • Some pirate to get something that's no longer available.
    • Some pirate because their country censors or doesn't import it.
    • Some pirate games because of timed exclusivity. If they don't have access to it yet, they use piracy as a method to access it before it's available to them.

    Lastly, here's a few tips: AdBlock is awesome for hiding fake download links. Deluge is an excellent open-source client that isn't in close cooperation with the MPAA (unlike uTorrent, uninstall it as soon as possible). Oh, and remember: torrenting in itself isn't illegal, and it's definitely not piracy! It's simply a method of transferring files. It's what you transfer that matters.

    Yeah, I think it's a combination of the facts that: Nintendo is usually a generation behind on hardware and you won't find Nintendo-esque games on other platforms, they do their own thing. PC, PlayStation(s), and Xbox(s) games overlap a ton.

    [–]GingerSpencerPotato PC is still PC 18 ポイント19 ポイント  (3子コメント)

    You're right. As much as i love to hate Microsoft, Play Anywhere is one of the best things to happen to gaming ever. I've been saying forever that i should be able to purchase a game and, providing it's not an exclusive, play it on any of my consoles or my PC. People have always come up with reasons why this isn't possible, or reasons why it would be unreasonable or unrealistic to expect this, but i have never agreed. Now that Microsoft has done it, i'd like to see it grow into something much bigger...

    [–]kiki_strumm3r 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (2子コメント)

    I'd add mobile to that. There's lots of console/PC games that are now on Android. Most older FFs, Telltale games, and a lot of mobile friendly games come to mind.

    Frankly it's one of my bigger complaints about Steam, even if it is a tad unwarranted, that they haven't come out with an Android app store and enabled crossbuy.

    Ah, you're right. I didn't consider this as i didn't think about how it would cost less, but it saves you from buying the game twice. As far as i'm aware, though, aren't these Play Anywhere games technicaly Xbox One exclusives anyway? (as in, not available to buy for PC otherwise) Or are they simply Windows 10 exclusives?

    [–]GingerSpencerPotato PC is still PC 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (2子コメント)

    I originally hadn't thought about /u/Viltref's example, but i thought they were referencing EA Access. They used a similar slogan - "Play First, Play More, Pay Less" when advertising the EA Access subscription. An EA Access subscription is roughly £20 a year and allows you early access and discounts to some EA games, and eventually some games also become free.

    To be fair you can not spend money for games on PC. I'm not talking about piracy. I'm talking about F2P games. There are plenty out there.

    [–]Mushroomer 13 ポイント14 ポイント  (0子コメント)

    There are plenty of F2P games on console as well, several of which without the PS Plus requirement. Let It Die is pretty fuckin' neat.

    Honestly, this comes off as more of a piracy arguement than anything else. The "Pay Less, Play More" was in reference to the XBox hardware being cheaper than PS4. PC hardware is going to be more expensive than an XBox ONE if you intend on doing any modern gaming. If you take this as any sort of unilateral comparison, it ONLY makes sense as a piracy arguement.

    Not to say that was the intent of the author. It just wasn't thought out.

    I don't know about Sony, but Microsoft handles the Matchmaking servers for all games and account systems on top of the text/voice/video chat both in and out of game.

    First party games also utilize dedicated servers and by virtue of being first party can pull from the subscription money as well.

    They also use the money to beef up datacenters on every region for faster dl times.

    Except piracy also has existed on consoles since the very beginning.

    Publishers love to blame poor sales on pirates so they don't have to assume responsibility for a shitty game or port.

    It's propaganda they sell to the shareholders and you are buying into it.

    Can we stop this lie? Piracy on consoles is so much harder that it's not even worth it most of the time. Xbox 360's require you to flash the DVD drives for fucks sake. Don't even attempt to equate the two, it would be dishonest to do so.

    Tbh, piracy on the PS3, 3DS and WiiU for example is way to easy. It depends on the console. Once you have a exploit and (maybe) a CFW, piracy is instantly there.

    I didn't mention consoles though. I'm saying that bragging about piracy is dumb because it just harms the community in the long run. If consoles can get away with it without seeing too many negative effects, that's whatever (it's still wrong, regardless). However, PC is a totally different ball game, and I feel like PC players get scapegoated more often. All that aside, can we just agree that bragging about stealing is a no-no? Encouraging theft doesn't help anyone.

    [–]conquer69 27 ポイント28 ポイント  (9子コメント)

    Plenty of reasons to advocate for piracy. It isn't a black and white issue. Being 100% against piracy is very idiotic.

    I agree with piracy if:

    The game is no longer sold. Lots of old games in this group.

    The game is old and still sold but it's a badly emulated version full of glitches while the pirated copy works flawlessly.

    The game closed multiplayer servers.

    The game is censored or has removed content in your region.

    The game has always online DRM (singleplayer games), content locked behind DLC on day 1 and other bad business practices.

    You already bought the game before but lost the physical media format.

    You won't play the game for longer than 2 hours. Otherwise it's not different than buying and refunding on Steam which hurts the studio more than just pirating and is "legal".

    The game doesn't sell in your region and thus, the publisher doesn't expect a single cent from you anyway.

    The game has always online DRM (singleplayer games), content locked behind DLC on day 1 and other bad business practices.

    This one I have a problem with, because "bad business practices" is vague and subjective enough that most people can find a reason to pirate just about any game.

    Titanfall 2 locked certain skins and made you buy bags of chips or Target products to unlock them--pirate. Overwatch utilizes an RNG lootbox system that encourages in-game purchases--pirate (or more realistically nab a cdkey). GTA V has shark cards--pirate. This DLC is available on day one, and even though it may have been produced after the game went gold, I still find this upsetting, so... pirate. Some port is imperfect in some way I find objectionable--pirate. There are preorder bonuses, pirate. Early access, pirate.

    What triple-A title doesn't fall under any of these categories or a similarly objectionable (to someone, somewhere) category? I could really pick and choose and download just about anything I want.

    [–]conquer69 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (2子コメント)

    Yep, the other reasons are perfectly reasonable. I just found that specific point potentially troubling, but not without merit on its own.

    Nobody cares if you download a game that's not available to you legally anyway.

    Piracy is why consoles still exist. If you don't like a game's price or DRM method, you can play something else. Plenty of games out there.

    No its not because the Microsoft ad wasnt even remotely referring to paying for its online service, its referring to its crossbuy program in which you pay for a game on Xbox and can play it on PC as well. The argument being made by is OP is "why pay less for a game on Xbox when you can just steal it on PC for free?".

    This is advocating piracy and the OP realized afterwards that you are not supposed to do that here.

    I mean it doesnt even make sense in the context of "Oh I was referring to multiplayer services", how does MS saying "Pay less" about their online service make any sense?
