You faggots are reason that shit like denuvo is a thing, all you are doing is killing modding and giving jews more reason to force DRM. You are not "saving" the gaming industry, you are only making it shittier.

>>14711394

I wonder who could be behind this post

>>14711394

>You faggots are reason that shit like denuvo is a thing

Cracked too i dont give fuck

They got bought out by Take-Two who are pretty much the shadow EA.

>>14711404

There isnt, but there are still some games that deserve $10 or $20.

>>14711394

>>Piratecucks

Nice oxymoron. The only form of entertainment that's worth buying is physical- and even then, most physical forms of entertainment aren't even worth $200+ unless they're raifus.

>>14711401

If you crack it, it'll only come back and somehow even worse than before.

It's not worth $40 even after they "finished" it (ripped off a bunch of existing mods) but it is a very fun game that you should pirate. Just be warned that once you get the hang of it, the fun largely comes from self-imposed challenges and mods. The solar system is almost completely barren. Once the thrill of reaching your firsts (orbit, thorough science scans, landing) wears off, there's no real reason to go back to a place. Science Mode is a nice idea but poorly executed - you'll be scraping together every last bit of science from Kerbin at the beginning and earning more than you'll ever need by the end, even with mods fleshing out the tree.

That being said, I had a lot of fun making a permanent base on Minmus recently with Kerbal Planetary Base Systems, KAS, KIS, etc. It would've probably been more fun if I had used a life support mod, but I'm satisfied with the experience.

You're worse than he is. Please kill yourselves first.

>>14711432

Then it will be cracked again, and again and again

Crack - cracking cycle is a never ending chase that publishers will always lose

I will still get a free game and buycucks will just get more bloated one with DRM

>>14711435

>Please kill yourselves first

Im working on it

>>14711435

Bait or not, there are retards who actually believe that crap. Stop bumping the thread niggers.

>>14711441

If shit like denuvo becomes gradually harder to crack, it will eventually get to a point where it's nearly uncrackable and at that point people will be left with no modding and a shit DRM client.

>>14711435

>>14711455

I'm not baiting, I'm simply saying that shit like this will only make things worse in the future.

>>14711471

>it will eventually get to a point where it's nearly uncrackable

Impossible

>>14711471

And it'll be the buyfag's fault because they're the ones who gave them the money to continue existing.

>>14711471

Denuvo is the most effective form of DRM one can conceive and it's still useless. If you can play something, you can crack it.

>>14711479

>I'm not baiting, I'm simply saying that shit like this will only make things worse in the future.

Pirates aren't the only ones causing denuvo you moron. And it'll always get cracked, no matter what you say.

>>14711455

Sorry, didn't realize OP was the moron trying to shit up his own thread.

Since you're gonna an-hero anyway, wanna cuddle a bit and watch some kino? It doesn't have to be gay or anything either.

>OY VEY YOU'RE KILLING GAYMES

Do you really think anyone here cares about whether new games are made or not? I have multiple life times worth of old games I've never touched that are a thousand times better than anything made in the last decade. Why would I care if pirating is killing the industry? There is no reason for me to give a shit as I have no investment in whether or not good games are made at all, let alone the quality of them.

It's hilarious watching you shills come here and beg people to care about an industry that abandoned them over 10 years ago.

So this game is like one of those flash games where you see how far you can launch something like Toss The Turtle but on a higher budget?

>>14711425

I agree, I pay what I think its worth. Usually under ten mostly close to five.

>>14711338

KSP has the misfortune of looking like a typical indie game with wonky physics where the "gameplay experience" is watching shit go horribly wrong, making stupid looking ships, and then getting bored and crashing them for fun. The reality is that it's actually a very full featured rocket science sim that takes it's simulation aspects far more seriously than it's meme game appearance implies.

Just pirate it though.

>>14711394

>You faggots are reason that shit like denuvo is a thing,

The reason Denuvo is 'a thing' is because there is no way to properly secure data on a disc, it was ever thus, whining about it is irrelevant. They can be copied so they will be copied.

>all you are doing is killing modding

Not even close

>and giving jews more reason to force DRM.

Jews would do this regardless, we should neither placate nor appease.

>You are not "saving" the gaming industry, you are only making it shittier.

Its doing that all by its self anon. We're not the ones hiring rainbowheads and pajeets to rape you with lootboxes.

>celestial bodies cannot be tilted at all

>mods can't change this, it's baked into the game's core

>WONTFIX

>Its doing that all by its self anon. We're not the ones hiring rainbowheads and pajeets to rape you with lootboxes.

I'm mostly just following indieshit and I still don't want the few decent developers to also move to DRM.

>>14711338

Don't think I'd pay $40 for it, but it was certainly well worth the $15 I did pay.

>>14711394

If I buy something, I have the right to do whatever the fuck I want to, including making copies and giving the copies to whoever I want.

An hero, commie.

>>14711756

Pirates are the very definition of commies.

>>14711762

Anarchists, not commies.

Communism is literally the antithesis of anarchism.

>>14711781

This. Pirates are either indifferent to the state of the industry or even actively enjoying its demise. Indulge, do not endorse.

>>14711394

Look at this faggot and laugh and at him.

>>14711394

No you are the reason shit like Denuvo is a thing. Because you keep paying them for it. They make your experience worse and charge you more for it and you bend over and smile while telling everyone else that they should follow suit otherwise it might get worse. Video games are making obscene amounts of money. They've been growing hand over fist for fucking ages. And you know what they do with all this extra money? DLC, Denuvo, product placements, Microtransactions, etc. And you are the reason why.

They know DLC doesn't work. They know piracy doesn't harm sales (for good games). And most importantly they know kikes like you will always give them money, no matter what, because you're too stupid to do otherwise.

You've made your bed, now hand them $40 so they can fuck you in it, you piece of shit.

>>14711394

>>>/out/

You want niche games you pay niche prices. Don't moan about the industry only realeasing crap games when you won't support good ones.

>>14711338

For some reason I am seeing this advertised at my local college, and now here. What a surprising development.

>>14711394

Oh you're retarded.

>>14711338

pretty much what said

>>14711681

id definitely recommend the game

its fun and pretty realistic (tough me orbital mechanics)

in not regretting the 40+15 bucks i spent on it

but you can always pirate

KSP and Factorio are both worth whatever you pay for them.

>>14711338

If you really want to buy it get it on sale. 40 is a bit too much considering the game look is quite shitty. They didn't even add clouds to the various atmospheres.

>>14729131

Here's the only anon that isn't a retard in this whole thread. It's just like he says, the game costs $40 because there is nothing else like it out on the market. Same reason Factorio devs can get away with their "no sales" policy.

The only way to stop piracy would be to sell the game on specialised hardware, like a tiger electronics thing or arcade machine. Even then emulators would come a few years down the line, but at least its a few years instead of a few days.

Now, releasing a game on a cloud gaming platform only would also be a way to stop piracy, but given latency and bandwidth issues it would never take off. This way is only beatable by a leak or hacking the servers to get the game data.

Denuvo like DRM will get worse, but only to their detriment as it will have an increasing negative impact on the quality of the game (shit performance) so it will get to such a state that even normal fags "works on my machine at 60fps guis :^)" will start to notice and at that point corporations can be taught a lesson.

>>14711394

Pirates are merely a convenient scapegoat, and DRM doesn't exist just to stop them. Businessmen want to lock down software and ownership rights as hard as they can. Look at the shit Microsoft tried to pull with xbone. That wasn't to stop piracy; it was to suck as much money out of customers as they could. Even if every pirate suddenly stopped, we'd still be getting DRM shoved down our throat, because these companies don't even want us to be able to make backups of the software we paid for.

>>14729394

>>14729131

t. samefagging shill

You know this entire fucking board is infected with literal teenagers when they complain about a video game costing $40-$60.

News flash, kids: when it's your mommy's money in the first place, it doesn't actually matter. There has literally never been a time IN THE HISTORY OF VIDEO GAMES when $20 has been the "standard" price, counting for inflation. It's a meme that's been brainwashed into your dumb ass.

Either pirate the game or pay what they ask because what they're asking is fucking pocket change.

>>14731054

For triple AAA games,sure,but for indies a low price IS the normal,and don't think that "it's just X" is ever an argument for a game,it's not.

>>14731065

>for indies a low price IS the normal

Nah that's some recent bullshit that exists entirely because indies can't afford anti-piracy and you guys pirate the FUCK out of them so they aim for low price + wide audience to make money in spite of that. The shareware generation didn't price things for peanuts as while piracy was rampant it wasn't even a tiny fraction of what it is today.

>>14729593

Cloud platforms would only work in countries with insanely good internet infrastructure, like Japan. The Switch version of Phantasy Star Online 2 is a great example of this. The Switch apparently can't handle having the game files on the system (something even the Vita can do), so PSO2 for the Switch had to be cloud based. In Japan, it seems to work passably, but outside of Japan, the connection is so bad that hardly anyone gets through the tutorial. Also, since the Switch doesn't have the game files on hand, there's practically zero probability of the Switch version ever being compatible with private servers in the future.

>>14731233

>Look what happened to DCS games

Literally who?

>>14731256

Exactly. High quality games made for smaller communities unknown to normalfags like yourself have trouble surviving because they are unable to fight the extreme levels of piracy and credit card fraud. That's why we get so many generic wide audience indies now rather than niches being filled.

>>14731307

>tens of dollars

>a lot of money

Poorfags shouldn't have been allowed on PCs. Go be a nigger somewhere else.

>>14731323

Word of mouth from pirates doesn't mean shit as it's word of mouth from a community's e-celebs that sells games today. Pirates just tell other pirates to pirate then come up with bullshit like "I'm helping by spreading word of mouth" to feel better about being a nigger.

>>14731392

I worked on a relatively large indie game for a while that was a hit and got to see the numbers. Uploads to TPB didn't boost sales. A popular streamer touching it sent sales into orbit. Pirates do nothing but enable others to avoid paying while trying to convince themselves they are not parasites. For games that can't get a popular streamer's attention, like niche games, they just get eaten alive by pirates.

>>14731054

I'm more upset about the fact that it costs $40 when they didn't even put in all the features they said they would. They pretty much grabbed a bunch of mods people made and slapped them into the base game and said that was it, no more updates. Bunch of faggots don't deserve my money if they're gonna pull that shit.

It's a great game, but I don't think I'd give em $40 either.

>>14731310

Or maybe it's because they don't spend any money to market themselves? How the fuck would I even care about a dime a dozen jet sim? Fuck, I grew up playing Novalogic sims, fuck you. Even going out of their way to reach out to communities would help, I don't even know what the fuck you're talking about.

>>14731392

From your ass.

>>14731462

>implying pirates care about whether or not the game industry thrives

Pirating is activism. You are actively destroying the cancer on society that is video games. The bugman must be obliterated.

>>14736843

Piracy increases the availability of mental poison from AAAs while simultaneously killing competition not funded by Jews.

>>14736895

Which furthers the destruction of society and brings us closer to the end of this miserable cycle. It's the perfect crime.

>>14737011

>>14737043

>every single facet of society and media is pozzed but if you just start supporting a degenerate hobby that serves no purpose but to give bugmen an autistic time sink you will save the white race

Nah, I'll pass. Should have picked a better career faggot. You're not going to ever convince a piratefag to pay for a video game. They are almost universally indifferent to the state of the industry, especially around here.

>>14737079

I'm aware they'll always be niggers. I just want to be sure they know what they are.

>>14737089

Pirating games is not only ethical it is your duty as a consumer. Better start studying for a more productive job bud, it's only going to get worse post 2020.

>>14737097

No, it'll get "better" from that perspective. Encrypted memory is coming. It will be the end of reverse engineering. A permanent end to piracy and individual power.

>>14737472

Sure it will. Now begone kike, your shilling here is like rain on a coat. Cuckchan is where you belong.

>>14711394

adding a (you) to this

you're a fucking embarrassment

>>14731065

This is complete nonsense. The only reason between AAA and indie games is budget. You're going to sit there and tell me that a game ALWAYS deserves more money just because they spent more money to make it? That's LITERALLY COMMUNISM. A product is worth what it's worth, regardless of whether it cost millions or pennies to produce.

>>14711471

There is no such thing as uncrackable. Any problem made with machines can be solved with them.

>>14747706

you should read that study and not headlines about it. It ultimately finds that there isn't enough evidence that piracy causes any harm due to a lack of sales information being made public. I'm personally of the belief that piracy doesn't matter except in one situation. The people who pirate wouldn't have bought it anyway and it literally does no harm. The only exception is Boris selling copies of the latest game out of his garage at local markets. Pirates and piracy do not matter and nothing gets achieved by pirating.

>>14711394

>piracy causes DRM

That's like saying racism and intolerance is the reason why muslims bomb people and ride trucks of peace on pedestrians.

>>14755406

No one would be spending $100k on denuvo if they didn't have to to keep you guys from stealing everything that isn't nailed down like a roving pack of niggers.

>>14755455

The study says that no conclusions could be drawn about video game piracy because a lack of information. It does indicate that film and music are harmed by it, however. Dominoes fall one way.

>>14711394

gas yourself

>>14755470

Film and music are harmed by being shit. Piracy doesn't effect film and music film and music have just become so terrible people don't want to pay $40 to see a movie or $20 to listen to an album.

>>14755470

>It does indicate that film and music are harmed by it

I'd like to see source for that, because I've only witnessed the opposite. The Beatles have stopped making music long ago and they're still making millions for their label even today, despite being the band with the most pirated songs in the entire world.

Music is the easiest piece of media you can acquire. Be it listening to it on youtube, recording it through the internet, or even listening to the radio. Hell, if it wasn't for Napster, we'd all still being forced to pay +$20 dollars for an entire album just to listen to one song that caught your attention. Its creation was a very much needed, and justified, reaction to greedy record labels who were steadily raising prices of their products, and forced them to change in such a way that paying for music is as easy as finding the specific song you like in a band's website and being allowed to listen to their music before buying it. If it weren't for piracy, you'd either have to hope the radio would play songs you were interested in their entirety so you'd know you liked them, or take a shot in the dark and shell out +$20 for the whole album it comes in, only to find out all the other songs are shit. Thanks to piracy, labels were forced to drop their kikery, which is why now you're able to go into a music store and find music players + headphones on aisles to listen to what you're considering to buy.

You can test drive a car before buying it. You can test a mattress before buying it. You can look at a painting before buying it. It's all a matter of having the courtesy of showing your customer that your product is good, not deny them until they shell out the cash, which is precisely what today's publishers are fighting hard to get rid of, and also why we see so much mediocrity in modern media; why make something good when you can half-ass it and charge people for it without letting them know your product is mediocre beforehand.

Piracy is merely a guarantee that you'll be able to try before you buy.

>>14755452

I doubt your sincerity, are you just seeking attention?

>>14755678

While I love pirating I think you're grasping at straws. You can test drive a car, mattress, painting, etc because you dont own it and decide to pay for it after a few weeks or months. They remain within the premises of the store thats selling them.

I don't remember ever reading that in 1984.

>>14711338

I allways say: if you aren't sure pirate it, if you like it, then buy it

But in this case, you should pirate it, aparently after the acquisition from take2 they start to push some spyware and fuck up the mod community, if after that you still want to play it, pirate a older version instead

>>14762855

>I allways say: if you aren't sure pirate it, if you like it, then buy it

Nobody has ever actually done this. Once you've already pirated it and finished it you aren't going to pay for it.

>>14767815

I do it all the time. Hopefully you've learned something about making broad generalizations from this experience.

>>14767815

I bought Hollow Knight and Sonic Mania for PS4 after pirating them. I buy games if they're good and don't have mountains of bullshit attached to purchasing them. I was thinking of buying Peggle 2 since the first one was pretty fun.

>>14762855

the mod issues existed beforehand with KSP itself contracting Curse as their official mod repo, this predated the taketwo buyout. This cased butthurt but so far it hasn't been a problem.

>>14711354

Don't pirate Kerbal Space Program. Its actually a good game. I got it for 7 dollars when it was in alpha though.

>>14711394

Just came here to laugh at this retard :^)

>>14767969

KSP in Alpha was pretty comfy. Nothing can ever compare with the first time I managed to achieve orbit, back when there was no map or maneuver nodes, only one type of tank and one type of engine and one type of SRB, and the atmosphere was solid pea soup all the way up with no gradient. I actually had to bust out a fucking stopwatch and an orbital velocity equation to figure out how long to burn at apoapsis. Felt like a Mercury astronaut.

>>14767933

You can pirate Sonic Mania on the ps4?
