I asked Dad the other day if he could buy me "The Henry stickmin collection" on Steam as I am a big fan of the flash games. When I was searching for the Steam page I found a bunch of websites where people could download the game for free. Why the fuck would anyone pirate an Indie game!? I understand pirating something like "The Sims 4" because nobody wants to spend over 100 quid* on DLC and expansion packs; but this was £11.39** and made by a small group of people who actually care about their work and you just go and screw them over like this!?
You could call me a hypocrite because I literally have "TheWatchCartoonOnline" open in another tab (according to some random ass website it isn't a piracy site, but let's be honest, it is.) That's because Mum and Dad never bought Netflix or any other streaming services (gen X loves it's pre recorded cable TV) sooooo
*$126 (quid is a slang term for pounds £)
**$15 (that's why the conversion isn't a whole number)
Saerte
i agree, it's like i get pirating something like a quadruple times 10 AAA game but a indie game? thats pretty stupid. most indie developers are just some teenagers in their room and dont have the money to constantly maintain a game from pirates.
