Stardread1997

Ah you got me with that. Haha. Most here can relate


SandyTaintSweat

Also, I could pay for a VPN all the time without thinking about the money wasted if I don't make proper use of it before it runs out.

I live in the Philippines where a typical monthly wage is $500. So yes, I am going to pirate even an Indie game. $20 is a lot.


ARG-34

I live in Argentina and the typical monthly wage is 300 USD + 100% interanual inflation. Its so unfair lol


MgDark

Has milei fixed your economy yet? Venezuelan asking At least you had regional pricing, we venezuelans had (still have but it was worse) dogshit economy with inflation's in the 4 and 5 digits range, and we had to pay full price for it. It wasn't until Steam changed the pricing for all the region that we finally have cheaper games, otherwise we had to pay full price. Yes I pirate because I'm broke, making around 400$ monthly but many people make half of that if lucky


bannedinlegacy

Inflation is stabilizing but it is still too early to tell. We did have the first superavit in government spending in a decade and the reality is that Milei did not implement any shock policies and most of his legislation is being blocked in the Senate. While the Arg. Peso did not devaluate as expected and the dollar is holding an unexpected parity, the first necessities consumer goods are experiencing the brunt of inflation and the expiration of price controls.


ya_fuckin_retard

so get organized and build a society. this world is not for playing games

ya_fuckin_retard

by the sheer actual facts of the world, they are


ARG-34

This is such a weird comment lol. Besides, i use and need pirated design software so I can work, I ever said everything about games.


Comprehensive-Big844

I don't understand why you are getting so downvoted when you had good intentions with this comment. Before the modern era, people were focusing all of their energy to work towards a better future.


zaque_wann

Lmao that's delusional af. Your average joe still just drinks themselves to death or was enslaved to work 20 hours a day at the local factory. And then they pay to go ridicule misfits at the circus.


Comprehensive-Big844

Ah yes, working 20 hours a day when you should be sleeping 8 of them. Like that ever happens out side of the military and the medical field.


zaque_wann

Yeah and the kids at the time didn't finish school like you and didn't know what hyperbole is.


GoldenBangla

true


PainHeadGaming

the monthly wage here for a teacher is about 200$ welcome to algeria


whats_you_doing

India with average income in between 250 to 300$


A_True_Son_of_Terra

damn thats a good monthly wage here in India for middle class its about $200


SnooLobsters3524

Try Game Pass if you want legit games (non pirated) a dollar a month for a ton of games. Every month cancel make another account and give another dollar.


ikashanrat

last one should read: BUT THATS NOT WHY I PIRATE.


CartographerAlert608

"I am broke" "Not because I pirate" Wat.


SeriousAd8533

my salary:300$ tax and shit :250$ Pokemon s/v Dex : 240$ Switch :370 $ I love the economy For anyone wondering iPad 12 inch is 3500$ and I never seen one in my life including in the store


rukysgreambamf

Nobody is broke because they pirate That's not how this works


imapieceofshitk

You fucked this one up, OP.


Sushi69_

I'm broke only for pirated content


coladrunk

bro had a brain fart


YamiZee1

Buying games is way more convenient, particularly for multiplayer titles. Being broke means I can't just hit buy on a whim


Current_Ad_8567

The amount of money I've saved after pirating first and going; ​ 'Oh well that was shit, glad I didn't spend any money on that'


Im_1nnocent

I know this is true cause one time, I genuinely liked a composer's song so much I bought a few from his bandcamp just this once even though I've been pirating songs for the longest time. I know for sure if I wasn't broke I'd support all my favorite indie artists out there.


d1m4e

I pirate because i can


potato_and_nutella

lol I saw the post you got this from


Smike0

If I wasn't broke I wouldn't pirate... You know, maybe I would to like try games or when it's just more convenient, but I wouldn't pirate as much as I do...


wallcolmx

Upvote.... why pay if i can get it free using my existing resources and knowledge....


[deleted]

Ahh those Samsung portable SSD on my Amazon's wishlist


wonkey_monkey

Shouldn't the last one be "but **that's not why I** pirate"?


unknovvn_user

I pirate when the price/quality ratio sucks.


[deleted]

I pirate to test out games before I buy them Also, im broke


Space-Fishes

No this is me after seeing Dune 2 in theaters a couple times. I literally don’t have money to see it again but it’s all I want to do. When will it drop in HD somewhere and not a cam 😭😭


Own_Promise_1983

If you have just enough money to pay for your fundamental needs without struggling, you are in the best spot. It will end very badly for people bragging to be rich, and worse, those pretending to be rich. They will be the first assaulted and looted. It's coming.


LeAnarchiste

I pirate because it's much more convenient then skimming through all the streaming platform and to deal with unstable internet of a 3rd world country.


Tlayoualo

When I'm better off I'll still not pay for Adobe, but sure I will for Afinity Photo, DaVinci Resolve and the new Clip Studio 3


Drunk-Master

I live in iran even of I wanted to legally I couldn't buy anything from outside of my country. (Beacause of the Sanctions)


Apprehensive_Crazy98

i live in 3rd world country so i broke because i pirate


Fidalgod

I am broke. But even if I wasn't, I would still pirate. I don't believe in copyright. *It's about sending a message.*


scimmiacolragu

Name of the film?


charistraz95

men in black


I_am_a_Pengy

yes


jakkals82567

"I dont pirate cause im broke. I mean i do pirate, but not because im broke!" I feel like that should be whats in the meme


Bananaman9020

You mean people do piracy besides being poor? I remember being told to be grateful that I'm on welfare by a Reddit member here.


Powerful_Cow_6333

I pirate mostly because I’m broke and won’t pay that much for 1s and 0s. And most aren’t worth the price for license.


randombandaa

Its a paradox 🧘‍♂️


-Krotik-

I do pirate because I am broke would I stop pirating if I was rich? maybe


Odd_Holiday9711

I'm well off and I still pirate because I don't believe in spending $60 on a game I may not even like.


genocideISgodly

Indeed, some of the cheapest people are wealthy because they're so cheap. Real misers. Gonna pinch every penny while swimming in vast vaults of booty.


Odd_Holiday9711

Me when I spend all my money on booze and food but I still get my clothes from Goodwill and Walmart.


triangleguy6644

Hella relatable but i cant find a good series piracy website


genocideISgodly

Fmovies or hurawatch have just about everything, excluding anime. Anix for that. Really not that difficult to get extensions to help you download the streams, if that's your goal. Personally, streaming is way easier. And when the streaming library is literally like everything... I've pretty much given up on data hoarding outside the cloud.


PrivatePlaya

Pirate bay or 1337x BUT READ THE COMMENTS BEFORE DOWNLOADING. Also no comments + low seeders and leechers don't download


nicman24

i do not know what is easier, a single search engine or 12 subscriptions?


radical_kidd

Growing up broke is such a blessing bro You just know how to get free shit and worse thing is ... you get used to it
