That's usual, I found I was over level even without the bonus series on some worlds.

Pretty much. Although I suppose they can wax on about morality or just get all ragey over some company's products

Could be both, really. If it doesn't sell well, you could blame piracy for it or your game could have been garbage. Although I'd imagine companies would be more inclined to suggest the former, heh.

Would be cool if we could get an accurate metric of how much money a company "loses" due to piracy.

Different from not working at all. Odd that there's no backup service so you're not locked out of a single player game due to planned or unplanned outages. Cracking a game you paid for doesn't really seem like stealing in any sense, either.

Especially in key battles in wars, you do get an appreciation for what a knife egde the leaders dance on.

Sure is an interesting approach.

Checkpoints ? What is this, Dragon Rising ?

I'm glad I'm not part of the Internet.

Beware the Revenge of the Fifth!

Pft very, very little work to find a decent torrent site. Well unless they're hunting porn, but I imagine the DD sites like RS/FS/Oron can pick up the slack for that

Arma 2 or Arrowhead ? Either one is great fun, I mostly spend my time with the editor just making battles and engagements. I'd recommened your get the JSRS sound mod for it too, sounds are a hell of a lot better than the vanilla.

Haha, that's pretty rich. Not so sure on describing it as counterfeiting, it might well work as they do recompile the files with slight changes and so on. And sometimes they try to pass it off as the real deal (who's dumb enough to believe some Chinese store is selling games 80% cheaper than everywhere else I'm not sure).

Yeah I need more interesting photos, that was on a foggy day

EVE ?

Was going at the idea that stealing decrements the amount they have. Not really the case with pirating the game, and is a bit different than slating him as a mugger. Although, I suppose you could consider stealing as getting something for nothing, so may be. The raging on this is always cute though.

Wondering why my coworkers are so cheerful and chit-chatty. Suspecting they're normal, but I'll go with 'insane' as my conclusion. Spent 70% of my day on Wikipedia.

Well, what he did with Gothic wasn't stealing, really. But meh, carry on.

Wait, mkreku is a mugger now ? Hm I guess those "You wouldn't..." anti piracy videos had the right idea.

Luckily, I wear adidas when I play the game. EDIT : Because 'Impossible is Nothing'
