My sentiments exactely Nesrie, pirates are commonplace, not demons. I dont agree with Jafo on all points either i just am of the opinion that piracy is bad for devolopers and the community, nomatter how tempting it is.
Im addicted ;)
[quote who="LuthienStarshine" reply="249" id="2648962"] Jafo does not practice what Jafo preachs.[/quote] Im pretty sure one example, put foreward by jafo i might add to try and discuss with you about his views on piracy in an 'oppositional' thread, isnt meant to be a chink in the armor. In Australia they debated as to the legitimacy of the next successor to our prime minister because when he was a kid he might of hit some other kid in the shins with a cricket bat. I mean be real
If a sit by and do nothing its only cause i dont know the people. Kind of awkward holding a banner against piracy when most people dont want to hear it. Though if the subject comes up im against it. If i know a gamer is pirating i try and convince them to buy the games first, or at least hold out till a sale then buy the game instead of pirating it. I dissaprove of piracy, but then again i cant force people not to do it when piracy is almost second nature for some people these days.
Alot happens in a year hey? I still need practice.. back to the training camp :P

RandomEasyPlayer...I don't see that this thread has grown any form of 'ugly life' at all.

Ok ive now seen this thread grow an ugly ugly life of its own in such a short span of time. Simply put as a consumer and in no way as a developer i am of the belief that if you get screwed over by a company you boycott. You dont steal the game and give it a whirl while justifying that stolen property on your computer. It is not a right to own a piece of property unless you have been given that right by the previous owner. The same goes with IP, you cant just
Its certainly tempting, i think i will play it quite a bit, then come back to this. For now dont count me in. ;)
So do I, btw White Ninjas dont blend well at night
My mate on whose also on these forums, gwakamoli keeps suggesting this game to me. Now im nagging him to set me up and give me advice ;) Im a total newbie however so i guess playing in this succession game will mean i will fail
I only barely heard about this game shifting through gaming sites a few years ago, those graphics are exquisite but unless they bring out multiplayer i doubt ill ever look at it again.
Thats a brilliant idea, i love city builder games, The latest one i played being anno 1404

My problem with the pause system is that most people will end up turning that option off in multiplayer since its such a hassle leaving it on. Then you have an extremely fast paced Real Time Strategy game with a steep learning curve that isnt meant to be played purely like that. For example the speed times 5000 illuminator spamming mod in SoaSE. On another note about that i would be extremely interested to see a modern day turn based multiplayer game thats not unde

Dispensary sites breed like pirates, you shut one down with money, the same guys host another one up. Besides as mentioned, "extortion" isnt exactely legal in most countries. Who says no one has been able to succeed in cutting down on piracy? Thats like saying theres no way you can stop computer viruses so lets just give in and let them take our credit card information and use our accounts. There are steps that have been made to discourage piracy and to work in tandem with Inte
