Ask almost any PC gamer from Asia to South America, and they will tell you the same thing: FitGirl is the one name in piracy that everyone recognises

i’m surprised, i just thought if you couldn’t afford a game these days you waited till it was 90% off on steam

I thought there was something like patient gamers who only played games a year after release or something like this but I can’t find it

I was checking this year and most of the things I want from a few years ago are still at 50%. But I don’t have enough time to play everything so I won’t likely pirate new stuff even though I very much know how to do so safely.

Hell, new games aren’t even competing with just each other- I’ve had a blast playing a lot of PS2 and PSP this year. When you don’t give in to hype and peer pressure, you’ve got near limitless options for entertainment.

Steam doesn’t release every game in every market, do they?

I used to, but steam is based in a banana republic where I don’t want to send a single avoidable cent anymore. I stopped buying anything from steam months ago. Haven’t gotten a new game since, but I will look into gog, who are based in Europe if I am not mistaken.

Still is more than a dollar so would rather play first and pay later when I’m not having to go to the food bank.

That’s me, I have a MASSIVE wait-list on Isthereanydeal.com and buy most games at around $5, including triple A games, assuming I haven’t already gotten them for free from Epic, Amazon or Good Ole Games.

However, if I know it’s NEVER going to go down or it’s from Nintendo, torrents all the way.
