1 year agoI wish that older games were still available in some official capacity. There’s nothing morally wrong with pirating a game that’s no longer available for sale.

for legal reasons, I don’t pirate anything… but a friend told me that piracy is more convenient, and that it has more benefits (like, retain ‘ownership’ of content without annoying DRM)
train of thought (legal): what streaming service do I need to subscribe to to watch this? okay lemme go grab my wallet and sign up for an account
train of thought (piracy): click download
if companies don’t want you to pirate their media, they should make it more convenient and flexible to purchase legally. adding DRM and making things subscription-only will push more people towards piracy.
