Do I really have to do this?
Hey look a forum description. Support is just one of many topics of discussion which could arise here. I get that you both probably think your software piracy is somehow justified, but you're actually just too poor to afford it. You wouldn't steal an MB if you couldn't afford one, so why should software be any different?Elitist technology geeks, this is your home. Confused noobs, go back to Google.
And while I'm on that analogy, anyone who stole a car and asked advice on fixing the fender bender he got while driving away with his stolen ride in the carport would be chastised heavily.
This. World of Goo is intentionally DRM-free because there's no EA requiring it, and those who are responsible for it are gamers too, who are just as annoyed by DRM as every other responsible, non-thieving gamer out there.
We get shitty sequels because they're economically viable, carry less risk than an entirely new game, and despite their shittiness people lap them up (surely often because they enjoyed the original and didn't bother to think the sequel might actually be shit), not because of piracy. People still pirate shitty sequels, just probably with less frequency (because they're, well, shitty). EA still puts out new and innovative stuff (Mirror's Edge comes to mind) despite piracy, although I agree that software piracy is morally and legally wrong and that it surely affects their bottom line in a negative fashion.
