  i mean, i don’t like pirating. i get a shitton of “free” (okay, minimal cost tax-subsidized if you want to pedant. probably a dollar a month that I’m gladly paying anyways) games from the library. i buy maybe one game a year.

    Steam sales: Humble bundle deals: GOG giveaways: itch.io’s existence: FOSS games: Modded total conversions of existing games: Browser/F2P games:

    I mean libraries are awesome, but let’s not say pirating is the only option to get content on PC for cheap/free.

      You didn’t even mention Epic’s giveaways or the games that come with a month of Amazon Prime. If you needed a gaming library in a hurry, there are great games given away for free or cheap on PC all the time.

        Fair, although you couldn’t pay me to use the Epic Games Store or make an amazon account lol
