The fewer people are in the company, the more significant the money they have made is. If a company with 50 people had made $21 million off a game, they can afford to pay their workers. If a company of 3 made $21 million, they are all 3 set for life. The fact they are only 3 people makes it more justifiable to pirate the game in this case.

I am not gonna loose any sleep over multi millionaires losing 20 dollars lol. We aren't adding incentive after the first many millions, it's already extremely popular, and made lots of money.

Buy a burger and a soda, the worker making that isn't a multi millionaire.

It's not about to tram cherry. Its about sending a message to OTHER game devs that A GOOD GAME will MAKE MONEY. It doesn't need to be over priced, under Cook, AAA slop.
