![]() ![]() Quote from: Greenleaf on June 28, 2015, 02:52:06 AM I just checked one of the better known pirate sites and Universe Sandbox² was there in six versions. ![]() I dare say the last type is not in the majority, so let us just stop talking about them. they want the product, and can afford the price, but would rather go through hell and back getting a working crack, for an old version, than paying for it. they are interested, but want to try it out a bit before getting their own copy, after which they either buy it or would not have been happy customers anyway. they are really interested, but truly do not have the money, so they would not have payed anyway. they are just slightly curious about what the product is and want to see, but would never pay for it anyway. The crack users (software crack, that is ) are generally split into five types of people How large a percentage of the people, going through all that, would actually have payed the full price if there was not a crack available? It seems to me that most people, with the money to use, would have saved themselves the trouble. Finally you have a copy which is several versions behind the latest state. Then you generally have the trouble of making it actually run properly. In reality, getting a cracked version commonly means that you have to take the trouble to find a cracked version which is not a fake containing virus/trojan/nothing. Crack missing or defect or the data files being corrupted. In all the comments for the cracked versions you could see people complaining that it did not work. The newest was a12, most much were older. I just checked one of the better known pirate sites and Universe Sandbox² was there in six versions. I don't understand what makes people feel inclined to steal. I guess they have never heard of budgeting money. They're too busy being cheapskates to afford $24.99. Quote from: The Ventifact on June 27, 2015, 10:11:54 AM Its a sad, sad day when people resort to pirating. Pirates piss me off so much! They've got to be the worst breed of gamers ever! Money made is money made, and money lost is money lost, you either have or you don't. Its the same whether you sell a physical book or a digital game. Every copy that is stolen from me, money lost, I can't make it back, and I can't make someone pay for it. It would be like if I wrote a book, I sell it in bookstores around the country. Its the cost of production that makes the game have value. Technically, there are "unlimited" copies, but that game you steal still has value because the hard working people behind the product are being PAID for their work, their skill, and time. They think that because its digital, they have unlimited copies, so it doesn't matter, however, it does. When people don't pay for it, no money is made. When a copy is stolen, money is lost on that copy, but they don't see that. They always pull the "its not stealing" card because since its not a physical item, it is not deemed "stealing." Full on BS right there! Don't they know that every time a copy of a game is pirated, the proprietary owns of said game are at a loss of money? Guess not. Its a sad, sad day when people resort to pirating.
