2025

pirating games

It's a dying art, the next generation has zero computing abilities because they were all raised on phones and tablets so eventually piracy will just be lost.

GO BACK NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER GO BACK NIGGER NIGGER

Is that your daughter in the pfp?

ain't no way y'all still pirating in the big 2025 :wilted_rose:

Yeah it's scary to watch the number of seeders dwindle over the years. Gets pretty bad with anime now. Even recent anime that isn't hyper popular is basically only seeded by friends and family of the uploader

seeders

Just switch to direct downloads. Even if you live in a Third World country you can get fast internet these days, it's not the 2000s anymore.

Kekaroo these poorfags be out here pirating while we rizzlers be supporting dem Mutli billionaire global ahh corpos

Niggas will spend $80+tax+tip+dlc on video games then wonder why dey can't afforded a house

Even decent torrent sites have all been declining, especially last 5-10 years. It's so hard to find stuff now.

Works on my machine.

Why pay for something which you can get for free... hmm...

imagine paying for a bunch of pixels and 1s and 0s.

y'all

lil bro

not sure which is worse, this or the fact that OP is a phone posting eastern european

twitch streamers straight up stream anime

Why are you zoomers so afraid of piracy?

soulja boy

can't even spell his name right

What?

Bro what the fuck. It's CP.

MyAbandonware

problem?

pro piracy

eastern european language

kek

There's no monthly subscription fee to it and it's not on their goyphones.

are you too poor to buy games?

Is that a teacher? What the fuck

anti piracy

25 year old computer illiterate shitskin

Piracy is okay now as long as you don't seed, the megacorps said so.

I MUST PAY, I'M PAYING, I'M DONATING TO MY FAVORITE VIDEOGAMERINO, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I'M FUCKING PAYING, IT'S LIKE THE TWITCH STREAMERS, I'M PAYPIGGING OOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAH

he thinks jews play by the same rules as the goyim

5 is not worth your time

i'm not pirating games because they are so shit there's nothing worth pirating

It's a good thing the authorities are finally cracking down on piracy.

Piracy is only a lost sale if you would've maybe paid under any circumstances.
Companies would never pay so it's not a lost sale.

Lecherbros, the big boys said we are in the right

hi child slayer

buy for a coffee

It really is that simple. Why do anything else when buying is the quickest and most simple route?

But you are seeding as soon as you are in the process of downloading the torrent.

Basically this.
It's too funny that games have become so shit that they're not worth pirating.

Then why are you in this board?

hate all current videogames

don't watch movies or series

still post on Anon Babble and Anon Babble

Pirate songs :I

Pirate movies :I

Pirate anime :I

Pirate comics :I

Pirate videogames >:OOO

It's actually kinda freaky seeing how electronically illiterate young people these days are. I had to show a coworker how to navigate fucking Google Chrome and several others were genuinely impressed I knew how Word and Excel worked

pirate games

You find free gog games you know.

janny ban this low effort ragebait thread

hanging out with zoomie friends

topic veers off into some anime that was currently airing

one friend bitches about not being able to watch it on some site

about to ask him why doesn't he just get it from nyaa

stops me mid-sentence as soon as i mention qbittorrent with "and what, get a virus?"

Society is collapsing.

It's like the other anon said. Piracy isnt really going down its that direct downloads have simply increased. I havent torrented in a couple of years and its because I can just direct download games instead. Also I lost my private tracker login to IPT and dont want to use a public one

companies make music stupid

people pirate the shit they listen to already

companies ban it hard as they can

no one buys shitty new music

entire industry grinds to a halt

literally no musicians making any money any longer

Video games next boys

Game pirates are criminals and probably closeted communists. Stop pretending like you're top shit because you know how to find torrents. Pay for your games you black monkeys.

That can't be right. These little shits grew up with technology. How can they be tech illiterate?

Can mods just ban Pirat Nation already

Always been that way. In Germany and the US torrenting (when seeding) always gets you a fine or at the least a letter from your ISP while direct downloads are fine.

Derail this thread and post more cute elves.

They didn't have to navigate command prompt to get doom running.

It's mostly people who already spent money on the game/console and being upset that people got it for free

I would never pay for a video game so it's no a lost sale

t. got filtered by happiness

The 'technology' they grew up with was made to cater to their every need and interest. It was made as foolproof as possible. The little shits know how to navigate the apps on smartphones that throw endless entertainment slop at their faces, but that's about it. Navigating around on a personal computer and using programs is a scary thing for them because nothing will hold their hand if computer says no.

They grew up with apple, we tried to warn you fucks about apple.

My favorite example of a pirate getting his comeuppance was Kim Dotcom. His tubby arse got raided by SWAT teams and was put under house arrest. And he spends the rest of his days foaming at the mouth raging on Twitter/X about EBIL and corrupt America is and how great Russia are, because his assets are still frozen since the megaupload debacle. I hope it happens to one of your scene legends again too.

How can they be tech illiterate?

Smartphones and voice commands. Modern devices are so easy to use that literal toddlers can use it, you just have to (barely) know how to read.

Oh no, free shit with zero risks

normalfag sees Cyrillic

instantly runs away in ignorance and fear

How can I use this knowledge to gatekeep anime? I didn't realize it is this effective at scaring away faggots.

Remember that drama between Merc321 and IGGgames where both ended up doxxing each other, but former was so destroyed by it that he quit pirating?

you just have to (barely) know how to read.

Nope, you only need image association, that's how toddlers are able to do it. It's the pinnacle of Apple's design philosophy and why operating computers will soon become like magic.
Ironically a good thing if you're in the industry actually.

Maybe I don't want communism on my computer.

games get worse and more expensive

You're retarded if you don't pirate

A lot of them don't know how to navigate a basic file directory when they get an office job.

Meanwhile regular Chinese kids are now being taught AI prompting classes in middle school.

Right here.

People stopped torrenting years ago, I personally haven't done it for like 15 years because I know ISPs track them.

Born into it /=/ Good at it

Also they're so incapable they never once having used the Windows command prompt

I always get flak from midwits when I suggest this but instead of bitching about games turning to shit, just turn the financial markets into your main vidya.

At least you'll have financial security then, and you can enjoy older games on occasion regardless.

Wasting all your time in a digital sandbox for nothing when you're in your mid 30s isn't quite as ebin as it used to be.

lil bro

I hate this new derogatory lingo like you wouldn't imagine.
I fucking despise how everyone on the internet always post with a constant smugness as if they need to feel superior constantly.

Anime and obscure films/tv-shows are even worse off than games since even small indie stuff at least gets a steam release nowadays. Physical media is dwindling and streaming services can just remove shows without a warning with no "legal" way to watch them.

Not necessarily, you can set your ratio to zero. (If you're a degenerate)

Yeah you're right, with vocal commands and AI it's going to get even worse.

people who grew up on old tech had to learn the ins and outs of a computer to get decent use out of it

eventually these same people develop convenient workarounds that take out the hassle while maintaining utility

these convenient workarounds are passed down to the next generation without the knowledge that went into making them

next generation only knows convenience and no one is around to show them how to use technology

even worse, tech companies going for a black box approach where knowledge is kept as trade secrets and people are discouraged from experimenting with their hardware

We did a shitty job passing the torch

I'll never fucking stop pirating and seeding the everloving fuck out of EVERY piece of media I get my hands on.

Chinese kids are now being taught AI prompting classes in middle school

Great. More AI sloppa is exactly what we need

Setting your upload speed to 0 just makes it become unlimited

zased
the world needs more men like you for they are the ones who allow the access of media for everyone who knows how to look

why is this polaACKS! daughter brown?

every time I hear a company do retarded stuff like this I think maybe it's probably a fun place to work

Lel, if they win this... It'll be fucking hilarious.

I don't pay for AAA slop
I will however buy indie games on sale
I've bought Dusk, Furi, Buckshot Roulette recently

It's baffling that all it takes to be a seeder is a 35$ rpi 3b+, 4 hours of time to setup Raspbian + transmission, and yet very few do it.

The main reason to not pirate games in 2025 is because so little good vidya comes out that you have money to buy everything you actually want.

It's not the 2010s or 2000s anymore where each year games you'd wanna try out come out, draining your wallet if you paid for all of them.

Great. More AI sloppa is exactly what we need

Half of the Western youth being fomented into ignoring AI on political grounds works out so astonishingly well for China in the future that one wonders if they didn't had some covert hand in signal boosting this.

I usually only pirate games that I can't buy or specifically to spite Nintendo nowadays.

You are a fucking treasure, and I thank you for your service.
My ISP sent me a warning in the mail a few years ago, and I haven't had the balls to seed in a while. There's only the one provider in this part of town, so if I burn that bridge I'll be shit out of luck.

youtube.com/watch?v=zfR_Jj4grZE

I don't really know how's the sitaution in USA, but I highly doubt those letters are followed to actual actions, I think it's more of a scare tactic than anything.

These little shits grew up with technology. How can they be tech illiterate?

They grew up with phones, not actual computers so all they know are the absolute bare essentials.

Meanwhile regular Chinese kids are now being taught AI prompting classes in middle school.

God China is going to be even more fucked.

I never pirate due to this logic, and tell me if it's wrong: if a game isn't worth my money, it's also not worth my time.

Like, why would I pirate AAA western woke dogshit? It isn't worth a penny of my money or a second of my time. But an actually good game, made outside of the USA? Sure, if it looks interesting, I'll support the studio hoping they'll continue to make more games I may enjoy.

I never pirate due to this logic, and tell me if it's wrong: if a game isn't worth my money, it's also not worth my time.

What about the games you cannot buy anymore but might still be worth your time? There is so many old games you probably don't even know of existing.

I pirate because I am entitled to free games.

How can they be tech illiterate?

Picrel was the breaking point.

I am 25-years old and I've been pirating stuff for at least 17 years now. Why stop now when I am so good at it?

i havent paid for a game in something like a decade. i dont even remember the last game i paid for.

Torrenting games has never been easier than it is currently so why wouldn't I? I usually do buy the games though if they are any good.

that's how it is in the US too
the most an ISP can do here is drop you from service

Phones are easier to use than computers, and kids usually have just a phone and no desktop in the house.

lmao why is lil bro so mad

Reading these replies makes me glad I live in yurop
Just move over here guys it's so easy lol

wait a minute...

Fuck no we dont need any more brown mutts.

komentarzy

What a goofy fuckin language. Do you make postulates on webbenforums? Fuckin freaks

viruses back then: install an unwanted search bar on your browser

viruses now: crypto locks your shit and demands U$500 ramson

I simply can't afford to pirate.

No game is worth more than 30$ (40 if i'm being EXTREMELY generous).

Even recent anime that isn't hyper popular is basically only seeded by friends and family of the uploader

and forget about torrenting anything that only you've basically heard about, lmao. i can never upload anything even when i'm seeding 24/7 because torrents are on their way out. it's a sad state of affairs

Why does the fitgirl repacks use the windows cmd console? Did I just download a shit ton of viruses on my computer?

There was a small period in the 2000s where tech still wasn't as widespread and kids only had exposure to computers at school. Shortly afterwards touchscreen phones became a thing

HURR DURR VIRUSES

viruses in files, all kind of them from music to films and games etc. were more common 20 years ago than they are today
you can download basically whatever unless it's some super shady russian site and you can be sure you won't get any viruses from it, just use decent sites and don't be a retard

Yeah I know but for the joke to land I need to say that Console window popped up on my screen for a nanodicksecond or otherwise my fellows buddies will not understand the joke! Laugh now!

Name one pirateable game in this crackless denuvo infested era

normies be like.....eat the rich!!!!!
but get mad at some dumb polish kid downloading oblivion remastered on his pentium 4 computer

Why would I download the episode when I can just stream it on spicanime.to or the millions of other anime streaming sites?

been pirating since 2003

got zero viruses

Paypigs keep seething.

Just trust me the game gets good after the refund window closes.

You shouldn't look things up about the game or it will ruin the experience

Demo? What's that/We removed it.

Piracy still has a fair amount of use cases nowadays.

b-but priacy isn't illegal because John Romero and John Carmack said so!

Tell it to those involved with arresting stupid motherfucker fatso here.

Absolutely niggerlicious. Get a job, lmao.

I to enjoy paying for slop my fellow 4channelers.

$90+tax+tip+dlc

updated for the current year

110$ + Tax + Season Pass + Battle pass + Ultimate gem pack

Bethesda will just make trash after this oblivion remake so a pirate makes more sense

he downloaded from the fake site

OH NO NO NO HAHAHAHHAA

It's a scripted unpacker/installer. What exactly did you expect it to do? Welcome to the botnet

Oblivion Remastered.

I am so good at it

this guy really thinks it takes skill

then just don't buy games over that price. vote with your wallet

they don't get the little achievement popup to show their friends how good they are at the game

Just buy games, bro!

Everything is a virus, bro!

Trust me, bro!

Here come the janitors shilling for their lunch.

If you're so much scared then you can just setup a backup server in your home, or manually backup important file yourself.

crackless denuvo

you do realize there are other workarounds, right?
you're simply not in the known.

Why does it use the cmd console? It seems kinda sus. Old pirated games didn't do this so why now? Please don't troll, I'm dead scared of viruses

you probably just buy the keys

just stop pirating and go get a job.

Apparently it's the program that redirects fake links to the real site. If you downloaded from there you should be fine, the CMD shortly pops up every time you turn on your PC.

nice assumption, but no. I'm not going to tell a possible glowie the methods.

I pay for torrent leech premium. It’s like 7 a month and that includes unlimited torrents without the need to seed. I don’t go out to the bars anymore so gaming/movies are my only form of entertainment so buying a 77” lg g4 and a computer with a 5090 was worth it. I pirate a ton of content so I’ll make that money back from buying the 5090 literally in two years

Case in point, lmao

care to write here which fitgirl site you used to download? There are like, tens of it, and only ONE is the original with the others being imitations (allegedly) filled with malicious software.

Who do you think told him all games are crap?

If you aren't going to seed while torrenting why not just go for direct downloads with Jdownloader2?

All those direct download sites are filled with viruses and spyware. At torrent leech we have a huge community and most torrents are vetted so my risk is quite low

live in land of the free

it's not actually free and it's becoming more like UK or Australia everyday

need to ID to watch on some porn sites

This country sucks.

You know you can just buy some cheap Laptop and use it for pirating without worrying about viruses by simply not putting any private data on it, right? Or you could only download from trusted sites/uploaders while using a decent adblocker. I'm somewhat a tech-illiterate Zoomer but after pirating like 50 games or more I still haven't gotten any malware.

Firefox + Ublock Origin + Redirect blocker. Works for me 99% of the time, and when it doesn't the fake links/files are ridiculously easy to spot. Only time I got redirected to some malware was for a DDL link from Dodi (and yes, it was the official site).

You can't pirate Fortnite skins

I'd have to check when get home in about half an hour. I think I got it from r/Pirated Games and then I just clicked around until I found oblivion remastered

I dont pirate games cause I dont play that dogshit
I do steal porn though
Glad to see people with good taste leech my uploads

I rather just pay the money. 7 dollars isn’t a lot compared to the amount of content I’m downloading and it’s a good cause.

Piracy is too much of a hassle. Time is money, and I use money to save me some time.

Those letters are scare tactics and they only send them so they can claim they did their part in case something goes horribly wrong. In reality, they aren't going to do shit because dropping you means they earn less money and that's the one thing they don't want.
If you get another letter you can either ignore it, or if you're feeling cheeky you can call them and threaten to cancel your sub. Tell them you'd rather use phone data, satellite, starlink or whatever than give money to a company that meddle in your affairs.

I know it's all scare tactics, finger-wagging, and bells and whistles, but they've throttled my internet if they think they're supposed punishing me.
And it sucks that it kind of works. Can't game well while on 400 ping. I guess I'll just be a leeching fgt until I move out of this 7000 person hamlet that my job's got me in.

but they've throttled my internet

how is this any legal?

The buyfag posts are all samefag

Yea pirating is very bad and DANGEROUS
Please keep buying games full price and make jewtube/nignog/niggergram/fagg0tbook nuke videos endorsing/teaching how to pirate, so normalniggers keep paying for games.
Not everyone can pirate, and when too many people start doing so its when companies come up with shit like jewnuvo

desu private tracker autism just filtered most people and ddls & streaming managed to become 'good enough'

for real I can find sites where on top of streaming content, I can directly download them.
Granted that if I want 1080p or 2160p BDRIP I actually ahve to look into it, but if I want to just watch something with my gf at 720p, pirate streaming is just fine.

also like i don't need 4k bluray rips of some seasonal slop anime that'll take a week to download on my thirdie tier american internet.

Games have become very shitty and no physical.
I'm not comfortable paying for things I can't hold.

tranime faggots got their hobby hijacked by normies AND lost access to the actual good stuff

lmao. you love to see it. get fucked

Is actually a homosexual

Fags love seeing things that people enjoy get destroyed.

This depends on circumstances, but consider using your phone data for gaming. Multiplayer slop doesn't require that much bandwidth, because most things are done client side. If you have 4g or better you should still be able to get a respectable ping.
Or look into getting satellite internet (for gaming purposes). Sure, it caps at like 30 mbps but I'm fairly certain that should give you better ping than 400. And it has coverage in like 95% of burgerland. Which coincidentally is also one of the tricks the ISPs use to prevent people like you from setting up cheap highspeed community owned ISPs.

he actually thinks burgerland has consumer rights, let alone protection

ehl oh ehl

derp first part was for

Piracy is great as a convenience, even if you buy all of your games. Isn't it nice to have a convenient digital backup of a game, be it physical or not? Personally I have a bunch of games that aren't being sold anymore, so it's trivial to make a backup copy and enjoy them on an emulator.

so it's trivial to make a backup copy and enjoy them on an emulator.

Denuvo is ensuring this won't be the case anymore.

There aren't any games worth pirating anymore and it's easier to stream pirated videos than to torrent

You're telling me if I see the cmd console popup for a millisecond that's a good thing?

This site here
fitgirl-repacks.site/the-elder-scrolls-iv-oblivion-remastered/

I used the 1337x magnet

How fucked am I?

I'm never pirating again.

So I won't play modern slop. A shame, but my 500+ Super Mario 64 romhacks will make sure that I manage.

meant for

publishers are going to keep paying for denuvo for eternity!

lol
lolmao even

Jewnuvo realized there was more money in charging publishers monthly subscription fees instead of selling lifetime service for a one-time fee.

fitgirl-repacks.site

That's the legit site, you'll be fine.

It doesn't explain how publishers like Fatlus don't go under, then.
How are they budgeting to maintain Denuvo inside all of their releases perpetually if it costs them money each fucking month?!

torrenting

in 2025

you retards are actually worse than normaltrannies

There's a case of

build $2500 PC

too poor to buy games

too

nothing requires you to go below surface level anymore , especially apple

Companies are going bankrupt every other month, so that might explain it. They're not budgeting well at all.

in this case, the person should just die cause he's a waste of oxygen

>It doesn't explain how publishers like Fatlus don't go under, then.

How are they budgeting to maintain Denuvo inside all of their releases perpetually if it costs them money each fucking month?!

Sega is owned by major gambling company. They will never run out of money.

I've been pirating shit since 2008 why would I stop

that's because the ISP or the IP owner has no way of knowing what you're downloading in DD over https

Gen Z pirates at tremendous rates. What they don't do is torrent, because of the proliferation of resources like the r/piracy megathread propping up DDLs and stream sites.

I don't.

president of the united states is scamming people with crypto

openai and meta use pirated material to train their LLMs

but god forbid the average joe pirates a video game

almost bought oblivion remastered

decided to listen to the voice in my head that promised not to give todd money ever again

pirated oblivion

its slop

uninstall

simple as. No need to worry about anything other than that. Other than testing gaems, i can consistently get higher quality movies/shows/etc than if i were to pay for a netflix subscription or some other jew service.

the next generation has zero computing abilities

every time i use a computer that isnt mine i am fucking astonished at what people are willing to tolerate. Not to even get on the absolute state of cable television at the moment but its a similar jarring feeling that people will actually pay 200+ a month and get force fed commercials every 9-12 minutes. Im not a computer wizard but im confident that if i follow a guide on what i need to do ill figure it out even if i dont fully understand what im doing. I dont get how people just freeze when they see a term they dont know or get instantly frustrated when they dont know where something is. At least figure out how the fuck to install an adblocker so when i send you a site to stream anime you dont piss yourself and get annoyed with me that pop ups happen. I dont know if its just, they dont know they CAN do this or if its just being too fucking lazy but its
infuriating either way.

That has never EVER worked, because the silent majority of consumers are drooling retards that would gladly buy gold painted turds if a marketing company came up with a sufficiently fancy slogan.

I also don't understand why would anyone pirate video games in 2025.
There's literally nothing to pirate, used to at least bother pirating new AAA games back in the day but now they're so shit I don't even care enough to play them for free.
And everything else is old enough to be worth peanuts, or some cheap small indie game.

Why bother seeding if I can just pay 5 bucks at most for anything actually worth playing and have shit like cloud stored saves, mod workshop etc.

next you will perhaps learn how to randomize image names

That doesn't work because for everyone who does so, there is a million of retards that will pay even if they hate the prices too.
Even worse with microtransaction bullshit because you can not vote against it with your wallet, it's usually extremely overpriced features that quickly return more money than what they paid the intern to make it.
So due to how little they cost to make and how much money they cost, even if just one in a million players buy that shit it will make money.

"Voting with your wallet" is as if you could only cast a single vote against something but anyone can vote infinite number of times in favor of it, what the fuck does it matter if I voted against if a little Timmy will just throw a thousand votes of approval afterwards because he doesn't know any better?

Whitest video game buyer.

a 3.5% downpayment on a median priced $400k home means you'd have to forgo buying an $80~$90 game over 150 times.

Listen 'ere you lil shite, if you're gonna keep pushing de-optimization like UE5 and pajeet coders so you need top tier hardware to run even ugly crap while simultaneously increasing the price of games and said fucking hardware then you better god damn believe I'm making up the difference by pirating the games I don't feel like I "need" while purchasing the ones I do.

I was willin' to buy your 7/10 games on the cheap before but now that yer' jewish masters and other mistakes have made anything and everything completely fucked the past 15 years that world has bloody well past everyone by and anything less than an 8 gets the stick, and since jew owned nations have ceased making games that are 8 and above nearly all of their trash is either unplayed or pirated now.

Pro fucking tip: Don't make having a middle class livelihood from the 50s-80s require people to become surgeons in the late 2000s-Now and you might not have this problem.

Meh. I'm pushing 40 anyway so I got cash and I buy very few games only stuff that interest me and I'm quite picky

Are you one of those boomers who starts sharting their pants in excitement over drone choreography videos?

Why do you type like an idiot?

That was some bullshit fed fuckery, since there were 20 other big websites that did exactly what he was doing at the time and nothing happened to any of those.

That's dumb.

oh no white text on a black background I'm scared

Stay on your phone.

he's talking about torrenting in general as a peer to peer downloading service you retard, you actual dipshit
you really just read his post and ignored all the fucking words

the pfp

The next stap is FORCING you to pay for it. You thought "drink validation soda to continue" was just a meme too far? You're in for a rude awakening.

I'm never pirating again.

Good. Go be retarded where ever it is you can actually buy games... oh wait. I don't know of a single fucking place I can go to buy these games. So just go be retarded.

Nobody cares about pirating tv shows/movies/anime.
Nobody cares about pirating music.
Nobody cares about pirating books/manga/comics.
Why do people care about pirating games?

Are you one of those zoomers who got so spiritually cucked by the boombooms that you've given up on learning anything new?

I bought a cheap refurbished mini pc exactly for that purpose. Best £25 I've ever spent.
If they ever get set cheap again I'm buying another for server purposes.

tiktok

anti piracy subhumans

not surprised

want to pirate

everything has 0 seeders

go to private trackers

humiliation ritual where you act like a wagie and do X amount of seeding so you can get the game you want to pirate

go to DDL

they want you to pay 10$ to the host to pirate a game

I never bought a game on GOG, and I have 300 of them on my account, and more than 500 on Epic. There are too many games that publishers are giving them away for free. Others are too cheap, that's better buying them than downloading for free.

That's the real issue with piracy these days everyone is doing it looking to get paid in some way.

Refunds killed Flash Sales, and killed the huge discounts. Also, the average normie only buys if it says ''75% off!!!". So the publishers keep the base price higher and make a 75% off, and never cut the base price and discount after it.

go to DDL

they want you to pay 10$ to the host to pirate a game

where do you download games

zoomers have zero computer skills

making games requires computer skills

games will stop being made in your lifetime

Backlogbros, we won, but at what cost?

And I want to do this why exactly? Are you going to start stalking me?

how swarthy does a man have to be to steal money from hard working developers?

I havent torrented in a couple of years

Where do you download your anime then?

You can't joke about that anymore considering there is an anon who tries to stalk people using their file names.

used to be able to pirate every single game/anime/show by just googling "name of show" + torrent

now you need to join a closed in private tracker clique website and seed like a cuck to even access a fraction of the torrents you could before

Newer generation is not more illiterate when it comes to pirating, pirating is just plain WAAAY more harder to do today.

what is internet archive rom packs

wikis

it's actually insanely easier for games

Do you guys use prowlarr and the like for anime? I like the idea of automating things, but it almost seems like more trouble than its worth. At most I used it to get my Plex library right before I switched to Jellyfin.

Why pay for something

Being it's just easier to buy off digital platforms now. I can see pirating media. Being it's now spread out over a bunch of different sites all charging per month.
plus once a person has a job and big boy bills the idea of pirating a $30-$50 item seems pointless. People just want to log into steam and play online with friends.

Seek help.

want to play Super Mario Bros

go to any of 1000 websites and spend literally 0.5 seconds downloading it

OR

pay 450 bucks for a switch 2, and NSO subscription, and hope that they let you rent it from their servers

:l

It's now become counter culture to worship corporation and product, pretty funny, the nigger cattle experiment has reached it's zenith

Newer generation is not more illiterate when it comes to pirating,

No they definitely have no idea what they're doing, especially given that they can't shut the fuck up when they actually manage to pirate something wince they see it like some Robin Hood type shit where they're fighting a corporation.

Anon, your image isn't showing corporate worship, it's corporations using anything and everything to advertise.

Yeah, and they're using people who willingly advertise for the corporations. For free. Actually no, it's not just free. They're paying for the privilege of advertising for them. It is the ultimate cuckoldry.

I downloaded Expedition 33 off fitgirl

and they're using people who willingly advertise for the corporations.

Anon, they're employees. All of them.

employees who don't get paid a salary and work for free

What kind of miserable existence is that?

haha yeah nobody worships Disney and Amazon it's all in my head

obscure films/tv-shows

TV shows especially. Even some old classics are impossible to find on public trackers, especially British ones

he thinks these people aren't getting paid or compensated in some other way

aaa noo a black window where text shows up save me niggerman

if any of you are somehow this fucking clueless: yes, cracks can be malware, no, a command prompt showing up for two seconds is not at all relevant to whether that particular crack is malicious or not.

It's 2005. I'm a kid with no money. I go on the Internet. I am pirating a game.
It's 2015. I've got a good job, money to spare. Plenty of good games are coming out still. I am buying most games I care about.
It's 2025. At best, 3-4 decent games come out per year if we are generous. I can afford to buy anything. I am pirating everything except those 3-4 at most.

No one likes faggoty spammers, faggot.

he thinks you have to pay someone to make them work

It's 2005. I'm a kid with no money. I go on the Internet. I am pirating a game.

It's 2015. I'm a teen with no money. I go on the Internet. I am pirating a game.

It's 2025. I'm an adult with no money. I go on the Internet. I am pirating a game.

No. In third worlders we trust

why buy games when I can just download them for free and proceed to buy other stuff I can't get for free. Simple logic

People don't do demos anymore so I pirate to see if it's worth picking up.

I don't have money because I don't have a job!

I don't have a job because I didn't go to school!

I didn't go to school coz I didn't have money!

Perhaps go to a reputable website to get your shit instead of being retarded.
t. been pirating for 20 years only got a single bitcoin miner from a russian repack in 2015 that immediately alerted me to it by kicking my fans into overdrive

Steam has 2hr limit within 14 days refund you turd

Zoomers are an actual fucking plague. I legitimately have no idea how anyone with an IQ over toom temp can get a virus from pirating if you exercise even the slightest bit of caution.

all my gaming money goes towards a new PC so I can play them

no one gives a shit man
