    How are you this naive? You know someone has to pay the a salary developers right? How would corporations pay them if nobody bought the game and instead pirated?

      They’re paid a salary as the game development goes on?

      Yeah you gotta support the corporations financially so the game can be successful and they can go on to lay off all their developers anyway.

      Remember Tango Studios?
