Then offer better downloads? FitGirl’s repacks exist because some people have incredibly shitty ISPs that impose harsh data caps with dogshit speeds. Downloading an uncompressed 70gb game is just not going to happen, what do these companies suggest people do? Purchase their games and never successfully download them?

I don’t even bother with games since steam has better service but this fitgirl is a giga 🇹🇩

I dont buy on steam though either grey market keys or code on gamestop. Got to break up these monopolies somehow lol

These corpos got a union to fight her so she must be doing something right.

Remember folks, corpos are not people and they are inherently a threat actor to anyone who is working or buying. Treat them as such.

I remember at least one indie dev saying that they would prefer you pirate the game instead of using key resellers as they tend to cost the devs lots of time and money dealing with credit card fraud.

If I am buying grey market, I don’t give two fucks about what the dev thinks.

If i respected their capitalist operation I would buy the code from gamestop.

But yes, you are making a valid point. If you respect the dev, pay them!

Why would you spend money at all if the dev doesn’t get anything?

If I can’t own it, you shouldn’t get anything from me.

Although I did buy the factorio DLC. They earned it.

The amount of hours of fun that game has given me, it was practically free anyways.
Looking forward to playing the DLC

Seems nice
