I don't pirate games anymore. I did download a lot of Xbox, Xbox360 and PC-games in 2000-2012. These days I will buy my games from Steam sales or GOG.
Used to do it with games that comes with denuvo and games that felt overpriced on day one release. Pretty much like most pirates do. Now days gaming feel stressing than actual comfort and joy, due to this i barely play games nowdays but watch full walkthrough or speedruns on youtube and twitch. Getting old some might say.
yes, because the last few years of pc games have been poor. i've skipped games and half finished games due them being crap. just cause 4 - crap, didn't buy just caus3 3 - crap, didn't buy far cry 2, 3, 4 etc - crap, didn't buy any after 3 (only purchased 2 & 3 wish i hadn't) didn't bother playing 4 to end, skipped bd, primal, 5 and will skip new dawn battlefield hardline - crap, only tried campaign, didn't buy, saw mp on youtube, skipping bf v, bf1 sucked which i purchased for £5 mp was rubbish never purchased any of the ac games as i thought they were overrated and basically the same gameplay in each game didn't purchased metro 2033 / redux or last light, completed them though but because they had barely any ingame settings and no mods, i deemed them not worth buying i purchased metro exodus cheap but will not complete as i found out there isn't many maps and the endings are crap, also it's a buggy mess compared to the first two games.... downloaded many other games simply because they sucked to much after playing. never, ever got a virus from downloading a game, paranoid much? never experienced that at all, if a game is properly cracked then any weird protections are removed like drunk cam in gta iv. i purchased gta iv after trying the scene rls but wish i hadn't bothered as it was boring, not enough action for my liking.
Primarily I like the FitGirl REPACKS due to them being module by design in that you don't need to waste GBs downloading languages you don't need and they are normally fully updated and pre-patched. (similar to a unofficial equivalent of GOG). One of my favourite games is Zelda Breath of the Wild which I played exclusively via CEMU. This is by far the most superior way of experiencing this game due to all the enhancements and modification packs that have been created for it. It could be argued that piracy is the technical correction of legitimate short comings. But to answer the question, do I download pirated games? yes and I also buy games as well.
i used to when i was young i dont game any more....but now days u can go to game stop rent them or trade real cheap they even have game consoles for people to try out the games.
I''m pirating some game i like until they release all the DLC, except Grim Dawn, god, i love this game
Without pirate we would buy every kind sh****t. There is games worth zero $. How much cost your time playing it.
Yes! I still play games from the 90s and want to go on playing those and the ones I find interesting today. Most of the games I have were purchased later in their life, but I keep using the NOCD cracks. If I like a game I will buy a copy but I hate the idea of using Steam so I download an unSteamed version. This way I will the one who decides when my game is obsolete not the chain of distribution. Anybody remember Motor CITY Online, one of the first online only games,. When EA decided it was over everybody stopped playing. BTW the use of cracked game seems to have protected me from the lost of "features" in recent Windows 10 updates. I purchase games, but I play "fixed" games so I get the maximum for my money.
I never! When you know how much work goes into developing a game you understand that the price is just that. Slipt with your friends and it will be cheaper
back in the early days, I pirate them a lot! Nowadays I'm earning my own money so I can spend to games that's worth paying. If you liked the game please support the developers by buying their game! Some publishers are a**holes, but please don't think of them think of the developers who worked for it. It's okay to pirate if you wanted to test it out first for some time, but please don't encourage to spread piracy among other people, just keep it to yourself.
