@stappern@Talignoram6571 It’s a difficult question. I’m a game developer. We estimate that about 25% of all active copies are pirated.
If all pirated copies would just disappear, would those people go buy the game? I don’t think so. They would just stop playing. They don’t care about the game enough to spend money, or they really just cannot afford it.
But you could argue that more people are playing the game, and they might buy a sequel in the future.
i mean you pulled this data out of nowhere, wheres your proof that you are losing money? you admit that people playing the game doesnt mean they would buy it and you even admit that they might buy the next one… so how are you losing money?
why? no victim no crime. you are literally not hurting anybody.

So, do we loose money? Yes, a little.
