Anyone else notice that zoomers generally frown upon vidya piracy?
Why is this so?
Anyone else notice that zoomers generally frown upon vidya piracy?
They don't know how.
zoomers grew up with completely closed software ecosystems with everything working out of the box. of course they don't know how to tinker around to pirate shit
can't imagine my life where I have to pay for books, music, movies, shows or comics
zoomers are tech illiterates and have no idea how to pirate
even my grandma is torrenting shit while I couldn't teach my little bro how to do it because it's "too complicated"
zoomers didn't grow up in the internet wild west
Zoomers have scruples, unlike their socialist boomer parents who steal food from the tables of developers and artists alike.
Because their parents just give them anything they want.
I mean you need people to pay to keep it flowing isnt that right
You don't know how much money I saved by pirating medical textbooks.
Zoomers are the modern day equivalent of normies decades ago.
They're just as technilogically impaired as the boomers from 20 years ago were, despite growing up using it.
Pretty hard when you throw money at big corps and their new season passes or e-celebs just for saying your name during a stream. Let alone not paying for the FOTM
I think it’s more that they grew up with media neatly available at a single click/tap. Imagine growing up with parents who have a subscription to everything
Pirating a game is wrong, but not because it is theft. It is wrong because you are using powers that are only available to Jesus Christ and are thus assuming godhood, which is obvious heresy.
>mfw I got a bj from a zoomer thot for pirating her Sims 4 with all the DLCs
I don't know but its good.
Based Christian poster
24 here, been pirating since I was 8
Good. More shit left for me.
it's incredibly easy to get anything as long as you pay for it as opposed to the 2000s when no such service exist
thank god for third world countries and russia keeping piracy afloat
But what if my PC catches a virus!!!
Indoctrinated. Easily if they're naive, since the "awareness" campaigns were pushing third party agendas in disguise.
This guy
Because they think corporations are their friends
>zoomers
>using that word unironically
post discarded
Hold on let me pirate this purse
>tfw family thinks I'm mr robot because I know how to download a torrent
How the fuck can you be over 20 and not know how to pirate shit?
I hate attention whores like you wouldn't believe
this is the only argument I will accept and concede to
>Piracy is theft
How do devs lose money if I never intended to buy the game in the first place?
SO WHAT IS STOPPING ME FROM BECOMING A GOD ?
This is fake news. Zoomers pirate all the time.
How can one man be this based
United States of America copyright laws, mostly
>He still doesn't know how to pirate
>I think it’s more that they grew up with media neatly available at a single click/tap.
Piracy was very simple before corporations whined to global governments to shut everything down and are allowed to spy on you. But don't worry, the zoomers have their corporate approved streaming and download clients.
The guy FROM THE ISP COMPANY who installed my parents internet when I was a kid literally immediately showed me how to pirate music when he was setting it up back 98
I'm 21 and pirate fucking everything and so do all the people around my age range. That furnigger is just an out of touch retard
It's a multitude of factors
>it's much easier to get everything you want with the click of a button now compared to the early 2000s
>corporations have way more systems in place to track shit than they used to so if you aren't using a VPN it's only a matter of time before you're caught
>they're convinced corporations are on their side
>kickass is dead
I work at a high school, with kids there being 16-19 years old. I'm the IT support so generally I see a lot of what the kids these days do on their computers, and back when PopcornTime was a thing, every fucking kid had it installed. If it's easy enough they'll definitely do it.
Unironically this. Doom Eternal was infected.
>pirate now brags on social medias
for goddamn fucking sake...
this fucking generation i swear
>take the purse
>study its design and make thoroughly
>create a 1:1 blueprint of it
>put into a 3D printer
>give the original back to the old lady
>keep the copy
>Install utorrent
>press download button on game site
>Mount it
>Replace the steam files with the crack
>tinker
it's literally 2 steps for a show
based and Christ-pilled
>been pirating movies / games for people the past 10 years
>never have i been gifted anything other than a box of chocolate
Im thinking I was doing favors for the wrong people but a box of chocolate is still more than nothing.
>Why is this so?
They are dumb cattle.
Because Gabe was unironically right when he said that piracy is a service problem. Far less people will pirate movies if netflix lets them stream all the movies they want. Steam sales cause people to buy games that they probably wouldn't have bought (or pirated) otherwise
Itt
>Not finding the blueprint without the need to take it away from an old lady
Because they take the meme about girls cringing if you plug in your laptop to the TV too seriously.
Looks like we really are heading straight into that tech-dystopia dream. Companies have got the zoomzoom generation by the balls.
>didn't know how to watch a show otherwise
To be fair.
Almost no trust worthy streaming site ever stays up for long anymore and any replacements are sketchy as fuck trash that won't let you watch anything without adblock off.
>made money off of classmates because I knew how to “hack” a wii
My dad thought I was selling drugs because he saw that I was always buying shit.
Sure kid
Doom Eternal wasn't even cracked by anyone because the drm free exe was right there in the the files. You have no one to blame but yourself for downloading from a sketchy source.
Someone post the piracy justificaiton tier list. All I remember is God Tier was Duke Nukem saying "fuck you I do what I want"
>millennials are surprised not everyone is a thieving cheapskate and poorfag with no honor
Shocking.
>Install utorrent
>Install utorrent
On a fucking iPhone? I don't think so.
>>Install utorrent
Do you want adware? Because that's how you get adware.
Remember all those articles from 2005 with titles like "Digital Frontier: Generation Internet" that insisted the zoomers would be living life on a higher plane of digital existence, leaving us all behind with their innate tech-savvy skills that would come from growing up immersed in the internet as "digital natives"? These retards don't even know how to insert a stick of RAM into a desktop PC, they've been crippled by walled-garden software ecosystems and tard-proof touchscreen UIs.
Pretty much just this. If you’re gonna pirate, then pirate. Nobody cares.
Doing mental gymnastics and saying that it’s not stealing or it’s not a lost sale makes you look like a faggot.
Pretty much this. The only real argument against piracy is joining the botnet.
MY GOD
HE'S RIGHT
FORGIVE ME O LORD
FORGIVE MY HERESY
He probably would have been less disappointed if you actually did.
Install uTorrent 2.2.1
>Almost no trust worthy streaming site
The fuck are you talking about? At the absolute barest minimum you torrent that shit, retard.
>his smartphone doesn't run windows
only got your apple obsessing ass to blame
Zoomers are indoctrinated from birth to be subservient to the system
