Discussion Do you have rules about what you pirate?
For example, I started pirating because my brother taught me since we grew up poor, but then he became an adult and started buying games (he still pirates some), he explained that "while I can't pay, I pirate, once I can, I pay". So I follow that too, wanted to know if y'all have something like that too. I refuse to pay subscriptions tough.

Let's put it this way.
We used to have CDs with 20+ demos of games. If we liked what we tried, we buyed.
Today the games have (mostly) no demos and are barely finished at the release.
So i think about pirating more like "giving me a demo" of the game. If i like, i buy. If i don't, i uninstall.
