Spreading the word about a game you pirated and enjoyed is "at worst an equal trade," Hakita says.

In my teenage years and early 20s I pirated everything because I was broke. I could squirrel away enough money to build a low grade gaming computer and the benefit to me was "I don't have to pay for games because I can pirate them". That or I survived on Demo CDs that came with magazines I got at the book store (and later on I think it was demoplanet.com?). If it wasn't for these resources, I probably never would have gotten into PC gaming.
Now that I have expendable income, I buy games that I want to play.
I would never have been a customer if I wasn't originally a pirate. It's the circle of life.
Also I just went and bought this game because I have money to support shit like this and I'm all about supporting developers who understand.
