“steal”
Stealing implies a transfer of ownership. Downloading a “COPY” of a digital game only infringes on a copyright or licence or whatever the multi-million dollar company wants to claim it has.
If you don’t own the game by purchasing it, then it’s not stealing if you pirate it.
Maybe he’s gonna break into the publishers office and steal the master copy 🤣
I am, again, mostly fine with that.
As long as that means you don’t pirate anything that has a physical version or is on GOG.
I mean, that’s not entirely true, my views on piracy are more nuanced than that, but in terms of how much I can stand behind that line as an argument.
I am mostly fine with that.
As long as that means the games I buy physical are still manufactured and sold by the publisher and not Joe Bloe on eBay for a 900% “rare retro game” mark-up.
