    “Many” so what’s your source for this?

    Also I have bought a bunch of games and I still pirate sometimes what are you talking.

      What’s yours? This whole “pirates are also buyers” is just a cop-out, but sure your anecdotic experience is valid proof against the more logical alternative

        Me, my friends, all first hand sources. I bought AC Origins, Cyberpunk 2077, RDR2, COD MW 2019, COD Infinite Warfare. More curious about yours cause you mention cop-out you saying from first hand experience lol? Logical what, your own kinda logical like wdym. Origins is like the only denuvo title I ever bought cause I don’t see any boundaries unlike you. You seem to be caught up in a logical cage and can’t take any other pov that doesn’t fit yourself.

      Common sense logic kinda dictates that once people have obtained a product, they’re unlikely to go back an pay for the same product even if they liked what they got the first time. The only outlier I have seen, is with small(er) indie games where people are more likely to offer support. Someone pirating a AAA title, liking it and then buying it shortly after at full retail is pretty rare i would say.
