When the cat masturbates its chin

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

What they mean by "shouldn't have cared" is that a number of companies don't care about this kind of thing. It's not like it cuts into their profits, and if anything, should increase them. It's a patch, meaning you still have to somehow get the original game.

except let's be fucking honest here obtaining Japanese PC games legally can be a pain in the ass because of software export restrictions and cost so 99.99999% of people who use these patches are pirating the game and not supporting the original developer in any way shape or form

how many people who have played or rped from dmmd for example actually paid for copies of the

*paid for copies of the game legally?

fuck hit post too soon but anyway piracy is fucking rampant in this category so a company kneejerk cracking down on a patch makes sense

Honestly

I buy all of my games now but I definitely didn't before and I'm definitely willing to bet a ton of people in the west still don't

I mean, I see what she's saying but the company's decision isn't exactly unreasonable either imo
