@azukiglg "Future Revenue Opportunities" lol First of all, can't can't know if any user wouldn't pay for an official release after pirating. Second of all, it's so funny to pretend that most stuff that companies decide to hide in a vault will ever see daylight again. Be serious.








Japanese otaku culture was built on a very careful negotiation between the corporation and the fandom, creating this weird social peace based on gentleman’s agreements. American otaku culture was built on fighting with distributors to the death through trickery and skullduggery


















@azukiglg I don't get where japanese people got the idea mass pirating happens because people don't wanna pay. It happens precisaly because people >can't< pay. Yet again Valve was right all along - piracy is a matter of service, not price.
