I'm actually just about to buy this (thanks for letting us know about this, by the way) but this is insane. You know, I have always said people will only stop pirating when things are free and this just proves it.
I cannot believe this. I just... I can't believe you're even suggesting such a thing. The thought that there isn't some high-minded principle, some dedication to a higher justice, behind piracy? Scandalous!John Funk said:Hmm. Wow, it's hard to believe that pirates would be this unprincipled. Man, it's almost like the rationalizations that pirates use for their behavior (DRM, price, etc) are actually just flimsy pretenses to get stuff for free. Can you possibly imagine that?!
I don't agree.Baby Tea said:That is not an excuse. Not in the slightest.GiantRedButton said:Maybe the pirates had no other possible option then to pirate.
If I lived in Far-away-istan with no access to these games, I still wouldn't have the right or reason to pirate.
It's never the right option.
This ^^ Right now I think that the indie developers are the only ones that actually deserve my monies. And since this was so awesome, I bought all these games again, this time instead donating their full cost to charity and giving my wonderful friends a chance to love the indie gaming crowd. =D GO INDIE GAMES AND THEIR AWESOME COMPANIES!LiquidGrape said:I buy all my indie titles at full price.
Moral high ground, y'all.
Seriously though, piracy on this level is perpetrated only by the very lowest common denominator. We proper internet folks shun them.
Actually, you only need a bank account.GiantRedButton said:Note that only people with credit cards can purchase the bundle.
For some kids its simply easier to download it from somewhere else than steal there moms credit card, which are quite rare in some countries.
I'm sure there are some hard workarounds, but those are rather...hard.
More important, what a great deal, alot more interesting than the piracy discussion so thanks for that info
too
I'll try to buy it really hard, but note that i don't have a credit card. I'll edit the results.
Maybe the pirates had no other possible option then to pirate.
Edit: Up to now, no possibilty to buy the games. Has anyone an idea to cirumvent the creditcard requirement?
In germany 22.7% of people own a credit card, none of the in my family or me.
So i can't pay for it even if i wan't to.
I guess thats the reason then, the pirates CAN'T buy the bundle, they aren't cheapskates.
But Pirates don't pay 1 cent and everyone loses their shit.Low Key said:I think it's kind of shitty people do that. However, there is a silver lining to everything. I was looking at the top 10 contributors and to my amazement, someone had given $1000. In fact, all top 10 contributors combined gave almost $4000, which is pretty cool IMO. At least there are someone people willing to go above and beyond.
they will never realize.John Funk said:So... get a friend to do it, and pay them back? Use paypal? Don't acquire the damn games?dogstile said:Most of my pirate asshole friends don't have a credit card.John Funk said:I'm going to go out on a limb here and say "ungrateful, self-entitled dicks," that's who.
Hmm. Wow, it's hard to believe that pirates would be this unprincipled. Man, it's almost like the rationalizations that pirates use for their behavior (DRM, price, etc) are actually just flimsy pretenses to get stuff for free. Can you possibly imagine that?!
It really blows my mind that pirates don't seem to have a concept of "If you can't afford it, you don't get to have it."
This, I couldn't afford a credit card if I wanted one, and that won't be for a while yet ^^' All the same, I'd mail a penny in if I could. Won't pirate the pack of course, don't hold with that kind of thing.MugenHunter said:What about people who can't pay for things over the internet.
