But i am saying that the cost of making a game skyrockets in line with the ridiculous increase in computing power over time, what used to take a team of 5 or 10 a few months may take 100 people years to make. If they are making 3 times more money and the game takes 15 times more money to make, well you do the math.
Tell me this, do you think a company has a responsibility to deliver a quality product, even if this might hurt the amount of money that they make? (yes or no would be great) Remember that the money you spend on a game is putting food on someones table, and if it wasnt for the assult charges that would follow i would personally kick every pirate i could find squarely in the nuts. I'm not talking about big whigs in suits, im talking about someone they hire to sweep the floors or someone to keep all the windows vista computers from crapping out, someone who takes phone calls or arranges travel for employees.
Stealing is a crime, and it has its victims. Screw the word "Piracy", that makes it sound cool, its theft. No different from slipping a shirt into your coat at the mall. Just imagine how that would go down on this forum...
"Lol stupid ubiclothes and their anti-theft shirt alarms, I AM NOT A THIEF, why do i have to wait for the store clerk to undo this alarm thing from the merchandise? Thats time from my life i will never get back, im boycotting this store! You know if they made a better quality shirt they would make more money, its simple!".
