[citation][nom]idroid[/nom]FUUUUUUU i am gonna pirate everything!!!!!! screw the FBI.... i am a bad ass naah just kidding... even if i don't support pirates i love them... they give away stuff for free that cost (for some less fortunate people) a lot of money, I've (like everyone) pirated a few stuff but just for the feeling of "i can get away with anything" that it gives.... seriously, pirating is not that bad although you shouldn't do it because people who sell that software have worked their asses coding the programs they sell us they should be paid for their work.[/citation]
awesome, tell that to adobe, maybe a consumer level but not gimped version of cs would come of it...
seriously, most of the pirated software is ungodly expensive and is only really marketed at businesses and the pro realm.
or is software that is universaly used by damn near everyone, to the point that it comes bundled with many things, and at that point, you pirating it doesn't matter much at all.
any game or app that gets pirated, its not that you made a bad game, its a few factors
cost of game... do people think its worth it
drm... will people put up with it
is the game good... would people pay for it
are you a tech demo game... looking at you crysis and witcher, most people didn't pirate it to play the games, they want a tech demos, and at least in crysises case they locked all the graphical options out of the demo.
you make a 1% far noise app, people will buy it but dont complain that 95% of the people pirated an app of 16 sound effects that took 3 hours to make.
