I have 100s of games from Epic I got for free. I assume every time I get one they must give some kind of cut to the developer. TBH I usually try to only buy games if they're MP because that's really the only limitations of pirated games(usually.) Steam workshop is another reason.
>>31137This too. Support the indie devs you really like. For AAA games it doesn't even work like that. All the devs are already paid as much as they're going to get when the game comes out.

A lot of younger people are completely computer illiterate because the extent of their tech use are locked up phones. They don't even know what file folders are, much less how to torrent something, and are stupidly paranoid about "viruses."

>>31147>are stupidly paranoid about "viruses."I mean that's not inherently a nerative. I consider my own childhood paranoia on the matter to have been a great motivator in developing my own tech literacy.
Hell even on stuff like PlanetMinecraft, kids don't trust the companies making these closed systems and are at least aware of stuff like linux, with some adoption. I think they'll turn out alright as long as the rent-seeking remains blatant.

>>31136idk how to pirate most games

>>31137Remember to buy indies directly from the developers whenever possible so a cut of the game isn't going to Steam or whomstever.
