And here I am not knowing the last time I pirated a game. It's been over a decade probably

Meanwhile, I'm probably going to pirate Xenoblade Chronicals X as it's only available on the Wii U and fuck buying/renting one to deal with 1 game.

    Anymore, I only pirate as a demo service for games that I don't think are going to be worth the spend (Starfield is a prime example). That being said, the majority of games I've pirated over the last decade were purchased once I knew the game was enjoyable. But fuck dropping $70 on any game without a demo or pre-release reviews in full

    So far I've been okay with steams 2 hour return window and only had to return a few games over the years.

    I had a big fight with blizzard over Diablo 4 where I messed up the accounts I wanted to install the game on so I could play with my partner at home, and troubleshooting the issue to even figure out how I'd fucked up took an hour or something with a few minutes of in game time figuring it out and they refused to refund it so I could buy it again on the right account.

    Took a couple weeks of back and forth but they finally refunded so I could repurchase.

    I pirated a game yesterday. That game was a console game for a console that hasn't been sold in 20+ years. I don't feel bad about it.

    If the publisher had wrapped it in an emulator and stuck it on steam for $5 I'd probably have just bought it.
