[quote who="Coelocanth" reply="16" id="2106573"]Not making a judgment call here, but by pirating it in the first place, you've already given them a reason to slap more DRMs on things. From what I've seen, publishers tend to look at the number of DLs on torrent sites to see how bad piracy actually is. By DLing the game, you already added to that number.[/quote] If true, Publishers are stupid... publicer need to understand why people pirate a game... <
