MODERATORS
If someone steals my bike, I lose ownership of the bike, that's theft.
If I pirate a movie, Disney still owns the movie.
If I buy a game, I don't even own that copy of the game??
In my opinion, theft is a bit more nuanced than that. You pirating the game denies the producers of the game the profit they would have otherwise derived from you purchasing the game
no because otherwise I simply wouldn't have bought it
That's why it's called piracy, not theft.
Here's my chance to shill for GOG in this thread! It feels nice to legally own a copy of Stardew Valley
