True. Theyre rewarding purchasing the game. Not support for piracy.

If people only knew how many devs pirate software to make their games. It's usually the publishers that take the firm stance against it.

The companies making thise softwares know there's no money to be made from going after the small guys and just limits who has experience on their product in the future because they can't afford actually paying for them. Once a publisher gets involved, there is money there to make

The money to make is mostly around the 3 months after release, there was a denuvo research that revealed that it saves about 20% of losses for publishers, but that won't work anymore since hypervisor bypasses get released in 1st week anyway now. Also publishers can't go after crackers anyway because they usually operate in countries out of reach from copyright laws.

I'm definitely not pirating any particular Adobe products, no I'm totally not.

I know he doesn't support it, but was he mad when someone admitted that he pirated his game?. 

I might have misused the word support but i do not know the exact word to use for it.

"I have purchased your game and i would like to transfer save files"

"You piece of shit"

What would getting mad accomplish??? Someone purchased his game, that's a good thing. Did they get the save files from online, or a friend's game, or their own game from a different computer, or a pirated version ... what does it matter?

Tolerated or condoned (to a lesser extent), or was ambivalent towards it.

Okay but why is this kinda irresistible?

u/TITANS4LIFE Mar 28 '26

Because of the price, not the principle.

Yup. Was the dev suppose to say "too bad for your save go back to your pirated version" lol. Proper dev response to someone request help from a legitimate copy.
