    They are salaried anyway, they should be happy if people are enjoying what they created, pirated or not.

    Maybe if they didnt have such weird data farming people would be more willing to pay for it. They basically justified all of the Krafton worries people had (outside of firing the devs).

      People can run their own justifications for piracy, but god this has always been a shitty one.

      It’s like not considering veganism because “The cow’s already dead. It’s been chopped up in that steak on the counter. Me refusing to eat it won’t change anything.”

        Indeed, if the game isn’t financially successful, you can bet that publishers will shy away from similar titles and also the devs in the future.

        Still, Krafton is one of the worst publishers I can imagine. So not giving them money is fair here.
