Pirate any new game

>Pirate any new game
>Get bored of it after 30 minutes of playing

Is this the ultimate anti-piracy tactic?

It's called growing up and wanting more out of life.

No, old age is.

Try going outside

Games are more fun after u bought them unironically.

>new game
There's your problem.

Nothing was sacrificed in getting the game so nothing is lost when you stop playing it.
Buying a game incentivizes you to enjoy it more.
A bought game is more fun than a pirated game.

>spend day shitposting on Zig Forums instead just fine

Human psychology do be like that.
I stopped pirating when I realized I was placing more value on having a big collection than actually playing games I enjoyed.

>start game
>menu screen
>quit game
>crawl into bed with the lights out tuned into the local news radio station
I've always been an 'old man' even in my teens, but this year I turned pure geriatric and I'm barely past 30.

Maybe the new games are just shit. I still enjoyed 95% of what I pirated, other 5% it's just because the game didn't click with me

The only game I ever pirated that I enjoyed was Prototype.

Hardly. New games are just lifeless. I can play old games I haven't played before and still have fun, and the rare new release that's actually good (Sekiro was pretty cool).

I only ever pirated games few years back because I felt guilty for buying games fsr.

You're just forcing yourself to enjoy the game then. Pirating is the best way to accurately judge a game's quality because there's no incentive for you to enjoy it, the game simply has to stand on its own.

Most games are just mediocre. After you've played enough masterpieces, average games just don't seem worth it anymore. Replaying a masterpiece is usually better than playing something mediocre for the first time.

>frogposter
>growing up
hes probably underage and poor

Most based opinion in the thread.
Never underestimate the effects of sunk cost fallacy, it's harder to admit you threw money away for something you didn't enjoy, but a pirate has no such bias and will keep playing only if they enjoy it.

Hmm.
>new games bad
>no my hobby is NOT for adolescents it's just the developers suck now
>no I don't know what irony is

That's not what the sunk cost fallacy means or how it is applied.

It's the same concept and psychological effect, not sure how else to describe it.

get into gardening, boyo

No demo - I pirate

I can think of only 1 game I pirated and then bought, and thats Doom 2016

>only have it in me to play h-games

There are plenty of adults who spend their whole day on twitter retweeting epic quips. Modern video games are not all Super Mario and not only produced for adolescents.

Same happens to me even if I buy the game. But this time I just wonder why did I even buy a batch of games if I'm not gonna be playing it immediately after purchase.
Just spend your time on something else (preferably productive) and come back later.

>wanting more out of life.
Nah, that ain't it chief.

any suggestions for games that are worth playing regardless of price?

You're talking about guilt.
Sunk cost isn't even a psychological thing. It is an economic situation.

Personal finances have everything to do with psychology.

I've been playing a lot of Severance Blade of Darkness lately, and American McGee's Alice. Both games aren't available for purchase so you have to download them from somewhere. Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines is something else I really loved even though I pirated it.

>you've just grown up
>download old games know to be masterpiece
>have a blast

What did Zig Forums mean by this
