I find it funny that they specifically refer to the past year for a large increase in piracy. Remind me when it was that companies started consistently charging even more for the base package of their games…
Or when they popularized the concept of “base” and “complete” editions as a means of turning a $60 game into a $90 game.
This is precisely why I’ve always waited for the GOTY version to release (or whatever other subtitle they slap on the box) but through all of their BS I find I’m less and less willing to part with my money. Certain companies have become a no-fly zone for me and that list is only growing longer.
