    it's not necessary, it's completely unneeded.

    As I said in another thread a while ago. It used to help regulate the quality of the market, it was incentive for devs to make there games better.

    Take everything I say with a pinch of salt. Infact, goto your nearest beach and snort some seawater.

    If you work you ass of for 3 years to make a game, only to have it pirated by a few million douchbags out there how would that motivate you to make them better?

    Because a it might just make a few of those million feel guilty and want to buy it instead.

    why becuase the game is "bad" and that "bad" lable coming from some self proclaimed gamer somewhere from the bowels of the internet. That argument is so flawed its not even funny. Thats like saying women are responsible for rapes coz if they keep their husbands/bf's happier at home they wont go out and rape. What total BS.

    Every game ever made has people who love it and people who hate it. Even 2 worlds a game that if unanimously labled as a horrid, horrid game, has people who like it. So who gets to decide whats a bad game? If the game is bad don't buy it, but if the game is so bad then why pirate it? And if you didn't know the game was "bad" you should have done more homework.

    Piracy of things have been going on for ages. Back in the day you could not print the bible because you did not have the rights to it. Fast forward and you technically are not allowed to tape stuff of the tv.

    Standards come into play, it's not just about good or bad, theres also games that are worth playing, but not worth paying for. And piracy reinforced that, if a company didn't make a game to high standards, they would have had considerably less buyers and more pirates. People used to have standards, they wouldn't just have baught anything. Now, thats not the case anymore, and game quality is going down.
