Nope. It’s a common joke to show that a company doesn’t actually lose money when a game is pirated.

GillyGumbo@lemmy.world · 2 年前

It’s simply a comment on how piracy =/= lost sales. Don’t look too far into it.

TheLowestStone@lemmy.world · 2 年前

Holy shit. I didn’t look at the date until I saw your post. Anon is the new Nostradamus.

F2P games can still make money. Look: microtransactions. So this absolutely applies to them.

Ah yeah, sorry, wasn’t thinking about dark pattern games.
