    I paid for it because I want to support the developers, not Krafton. I realize it’s not necessarily possible to separate the financial impact between the two, but I still choose to support the developers and I hope my purchase allows them to make their case against Krafton even more clearly.

    I did not pay for it because I needed their permission to play it, and I don’t give a fuck if they revoke that permission (which I don’t need) at any time for any reason. I use my money to support the developers and the game. How, when, and where I play it is my own business.

    If Krafton has any issue with this: Come at me, bro. I will be happy to begin the process of Louis-Rossmann-ing your ass.

      Same. The devs get big bonuses if the game is successful, so I bought the game. If the publisher won his lawsuit, I would have pirated it. If they ever take the game away, I’ll pirate a copy. Obviously I’m emotionally invested in the devs getting what’s rightfully theirs, but I also don’t see an issue with piracy of big name games in the modern age of gaming. But please buy indie games if you can afford to, they are the only ones keeping gaming alive right now
