>if game uses denuvo you literally get better performance in the cracked version
Literally only pros and no cons. Or are you an impatient child that can't wait for a few weeks until the game gets cracked?

But gigachad how could a multi million soulless corporation survive if we keep pirating their games?

but I do pirate all my videogames and have for years. Imagine being a cuck and paying for something you can get for free

>Pirate game
>It's 120 gb
>no more space since 500 GB SSD only holds 2 games and 800GB HDD is already filled with games i like but never play
>Have to drag the external drive to store the shit
>"I'll install it once I finish X" which hasn't been touched since half a year ago
>It's probably shit, the waste of time will give me more anxiety once responsibilities kick in, it's probably not even a fun game

The pirate life is too hard.

my dad won't let me pirate as long as I live under his roof, so it's just buying games on steam sales for me thanks

because its already almost impossible to muster the will to start up a game
if i don't buy it and force myself to get my money out of it i would never play anything ever again

I just wait until its cheap. I have like 1000 games to play in the meantime.

no thanks i don't intend to subject myself to AAA trash

Cloud saves

>implying I play AAA games at all anymore

I'll be here playing Hades and Kenshi, thanks. The great thing about living in a world where all the great Developers of the past have been either subsumed by or become themselves the bloated, worthless corporate trash that ruled the Atari era of video games, is that you can appreciate all the more the absolute trove of Indie Diamonds in the rough.

We're living in a world with basement gods like Yacht Club, Team Cherry, Supergiant and lunatic individuals like Toby Fox or Chris Hunt who just lock themselves in a room for ten years and come out with some autistic masterpiece.

And the best part about these games? They're almost all cheaper than your average shit-ass 3DS game, and they're definitely all cheaper than ever inflating AAA prices.

I would but I don’t know where to look or start, and I can’t really ask on here or I’ll be called CIAnigger, which I understand, you gotta protect your sources from taken down

Most of them aren't worth it even for free.
I value my time.

Why even play games then? If the only reason you play is so you don't feel you wasted money, there is no reason for you to play at all.

Most people that say this are larping. If those sites could get taken down they would've already been taken down. The piratedgames subreddit has a great megathread about everything you need to know about piracy, even links to the most trusted torrent sites.

I pirated every game I've played these last months. Locked inside the house and have zero fucking money so I dont give a shit at this point.
Still not gonna bother with AAA shit because the recent releases dont seem to be fun imo.

Go give igggames a look. The site has a few guides on how to correctly crack games, and you can get them through torrent or just file sharing sites,

Thanks user, when I get a new pc rig I’ll be sailing the high seas!

Because i have no interest in playing the same rehashed garbage sequels that they have been feeding us for decades
I tried Far Cry 5 for example, and it felt exactly like FC3. I got bored of it and gave up after a few hours.
I also don't have enough space because terrible devs don't know how to optimize and end up releasing 100gb+ games

>mfw the first game I pirate in more than a decade is Endless Space 2 purely because they wouldn't put the game on sale after the Sseth review
>buy the definitive edition (that even comes *without* the Academy DLC) for $15 a month later

It's important to employ both the carrot AND the stick where appropriate, for best result.

coughfreegoggamescough

because I don't want to play that garbage. For a select few AAA games, I either watch the youtube movie version or ignore it entirely

piratebay, you know, the site that has been the most controversial pirate site out there? Surely you've heard of it?

Here is a con: updating games is harder

I simply don't pirate games I don't intend to play

I'm rich, or at least moderately wealthy. I care less about 80$ to buy a game than I'd care about spending half an hour getting a pirated version of it to work.

I just now realized that I fucked up the wording, I'm an idiot. Should've been "why aren't you pirating every singleplayer AAA game you want to buy?"

already do, i just dont really play single player games often. i miss my friends when i do

>mfw some pirated games are easier to run and also run faster due to lack of Denuvo and not having to install shitty 3rd party launchers

I mean fucking ubishit, ea, etc... all force you to install their products, on top of steam if you bought their game on steam.

Yep I’ve heard of it

Because they are shit and huge, not worth the download time, wich is longer than play time for me

>I value my time.
while being on Zig Forums, funny stuff

I am legitimately too retarded to properly navigate the pirate scene and get torrents or whatever is used.

Denuvo :(

I always point people to the piratedgames subreddit when I read something like this. They have a great megathread about piracy, with literally everything you need to know to get started.

i tried torrenting subnautica but it just started steam and brought me to the shop of it

because pirated games don't have cheevos, and i can't flex my e-muscles without them.

I pirate and if I played more hours than the amount of dollars it costs then I buy it
Good way to filter out shitty cinematic experiences and to only have good games in your Steam library

I want to pirate the new Tony Hawk game, please show me where

Sad thing is there are people who unironically say this.
