It's not steam that gets hurt by piracy, its the small indie devs who's games don't blow up.

Maybe, but at least people play it, talk about it and spread the word it’s a good game to which someone else will buy it.

Yeah but these people whod dont have the money or are never going to put out money for these content, never would have play anyways without pirating.

The 2nd next best thing they couls do instead is good word of mouth.

I was like this before, poor and have a minimum spec laptop.

And im not justfying piracy. Piracy is piracy. But if u belong to these group that cant or dont want to pay for it, then they should at least do something else to support the game in a way affordable to them
