I'm probably going to have to aren't I? Damn it Valve!

I am not against people pirating my games. It creates exposure for the game. One could argue that it could even help with sales. There are people out there who pirate a game to get a feel for it then actually purchase the game to help out the developers, especially when they know the game is an indie game. I know everyone has his own opinion on this topic, as it is very controversial, but I see it as a helping mechanism rather than a harming one. When it comes to games, especially indie games, exposure is what matters. Piracy helps with that.

To me, the biggest evil is having to pre-order a game in order to get certain content. Then finding out when the game is released that it is absolute shit. This happens a lot. Big companies rely too much on pre-release sales. If the game doesn't have enough pre-orders the developers will give up, if the game has too many the developers will give up... it's bull shit. I don't support buying a game before it is out.

Yeah, it'd be fun making a game like that. Let's just hope that all this waiting will pay off... Half Life is the shit.

Haha, eventually I will need some testers yes :)
