How about neither. Communism is the best system for a perfect society just so happens there is no such thing as the human race is one big fucking joke. I am a cynic.
So...it's perfect but it's impossible to achieve...useless, then, except for college mental wankery? Yeah, that's what I was talking about.
Most people are idiots and fickle this is common sense. Also I hope you can back this up with numbers.
Numbers? How the fuck am I supposed to come up with statistics for this? Talk to people, listen, make friends. You'll soon see that most people will not keep a bunch of games they don't play anymore. People that play the same game for 50 times (like codexers with JA2) are pretty fucking rare.
Would you suprised to know l337 drooling adhd kids are not the only retarded console players? Old people can be retarded too. They just have learned to hide it better.
I suppose this is opinion so I won't argue this.
Reasonable is such a nice word. Also quite meaningless seeing how it is extremely subjective.
Well, then you're paranoid because offering extras on a new purchase is a pretty tame thing, yes.
I can blame whatever the fuck I want especially if your past behavior is indicative of your future one. I can't send you to jail for something you did not do yet but I will not fucking invite you to meet my sister.
So you're a paranoid fuck, I guess.
Oh he said it was faulty just didn't say why he just went on with a weaker analogy.
Analogies suck balls anyway. This matter doesn't need analogies, it's really simple and can be explained in a few words. "Buy new, get extra".
I don't fucking care why they want to fuck me over
They don't, you paranoid fuck.
and you are retarded if you think that if it's for profit it's ok and if it's for lulz it's wrong.
Except I didn't mean that, so yeah, I guess.
You know as well as I that my car analogy is better than your apple one. One more apple is pretty much the same experience as the ones before just more of the same. Features removed from an intellectual project directly affect the experience of the product just as removing a feature from a car affects that experience. Also I can compare it effortlessly.
There's the problem. Like in a car, these features weren't "removed", they simply weren't there for you in the first place, because, you not being a new customer and buying it second hand, doesn't need to be seduced by the vendor. You feel entitled to something, when it's their shit and their offer. You want to tell them what they should include in the package. Unless you work there, this is lunacy.
You sir hurt me deeply. Logical fallacies will get you far grasshopper.
Farther than communism, lol
Who are you to limit the scope of my hate?
Well, I imagine you want to, you know, MAKE SENSE. But if you just want to go with your lulsy ineffectual rage to get your kool kredits, go on.
Suicidal bombers are supposed to blow shit up themselves included. Should I give them a free pass too just because that's what they are supposed to do?
except companies are supposed to make money, and people aren't supposed to kill each other. Mostly because selling games isn't a crime, and blowing people is. I know this is just a retarded analogy, but really?
Also people hate shit for the most retarded of reasons because their neighbor that they hate likes it, because oprah said it was bad because they are dum dum. I too demand my right to hate.
Like I said, if you want to look like a retard, go on. I thought people didn't want to look like retards.
And again you go with the reasonable. Reasonable for an apologist probably is different from what I consider reasonable.
I imagine anyone consider ( not just "apologists", whatever that means) bonuses on new purchases a p reasonable measure, yes. What is reasonable for you?
Even admitting that cloth maps were made to dissuade second hand sales, witch I find laughable seeing how piracy was a much more important problem for a niche market as well as fierce competition
If you pirated the games, you didn't get the maps...jesus
even admitting that the fact remains that a cloth map does not actually influence the experience as compared to a jpg while a fucking missing character does.
Missing? Again, you're determining what should be in the game in the first place, like you're one of the developers. Also, he's optional, you can finish the game without him. Also, iirc, the cloth map was the only map you had, you didn't get one ingame (for that ultima game, at least), so yes, it affects the experience a lot more than some optional character.
While I don't fucking need the lunchbox that came with the game or the toy soldiers one would assume the latest patch for that game and all the official addons would be norm when lending the game right?
Patches, yes. Addons, no, because the way these addons work isn't like a expansion you buy and keep it. They are extras being offered to anyone who makes a new purchase.
Btw, they have no business with you lending the game.
The thing is this shit hurts the idiots that buy it in the first place. A pirate will not face this missing character shit for second sales or online activations or whatever.
piracy shouldn't even exist in the first place*, so using pirates to support your demands doesn't really work. Pirates don't pay for the game at all, so why should legit customers, right?
*Utopia, yes. Like communism, amirite
new buzzword?
say that is ok that is understandable that they must make a profit but what you fail to understand is that they specifically fuck only the people that want to be fair and pay for their shit. One would think a company that depends on the good will of its customers (or their stupidity and inability to pirate) would do it's best not to drive these customers to the dark side. Alas they don't have to walk on eggshells because there are always fools that will eat any shit put in front of them.
Again, you can't use pirates that got everything for free as an example, because they shouldn't be doing that in the first place. A robber doesn't have to pay for the jewelry he gets, that doesn't mean you should also take it for free. His advantage of not paying is illegal.
Also, they're not fucking people who want to be fair and pay for their shit. You get the bonuses on a new purchase, which is cool because
you should be purchasing the game legally anyway, pirates getting shit for free isn't a sane argument... I seriously don't get what you're on about in this paragraph.
Oh yeah. I am quite certain we will never agree on this subject so let's just say I am an idealistic commie and you hold dear the great principles of capitalism and leave it at that.
Well, communism failed hard, so that should be a hint not to follow it anymore. But ok.
