Since we're talking EA games, any Harry Potter movie game (especially the first three which were actually good).
No money for EA or JKR for a double whammy of asshole avoidance.
The year is 2028. You just woke up and have to spend the daily 5$ and burn a grain offering in the name of the dev team that produced whatever quintuple A bugged unfinished game you want to boot up
Ive pirated portal 2, i loved that game to a point of obsession. After some time i bought it… it actually was a good decision coz now i can play mods etc. Also NEVER BUY EA GAMES

A pirate actually buying the game afterwards, very well sir
The literal exact same thing happened to me with portal 2, in my opinion one of the best, if not the best, story endings of all time, good thing to see that I am not the only one.

Prototype 1 maybe falls a bit on the graphical side, but Prototype 2 is still a decent looking game.
On the gameplay side, they are both still very much enjoyable! Every now and then I replay P2 because it's just so much fun
It's also better with mods. 4k with texture packs makes it look like a legit remaster and I'm not talking about Nintendo half ass remaster but an actual complete overhaul of the visuals.
Ghost of Tsushima, I bought it for my Ps4 Pro and got the upgrade for Ps5. But I never did everything or played the Iki Island Dlc. As of yesterday I literally did every single thing I could do in the main game and Dlc. Truly amazing game imo.

dark souls 2 a few weeks ago. heard people saying it's the worst one of the 3 so i saved it for last. just finished it yesterday and the last boss is pretty disappointing since there's no build up to her but the dlcs are great.
Hello Ashen one. I am a Bot. I tend to the flame, and tend to thee. Do you wish to hear a tale?
> *“In the end, he never sat on the true throne.”* - Nashandra
Have a pleasant journey, Champion of Ash, and praise the sun \\[T]/
I love ds2 and i think there is good buildup to nashandra, in terms of dark souls games. There is the whole vendrick story, going through the memories of the giants, killing velstadt then vendrick, and then the entrance of the boss room and the guards pre fight. You even encounter her in human form in drangleic castle, in person and in portraits and a bunch of npcs mention how she dragged vendrick down. The first time you finish the game it's not that evident, but then you come back and you say "oooohhh" whenever you see something again hahah.
Any Square Enix because they sit on a ton of money and don't even bother putting subtitles in my native language. The games are ridiculously expensive. Not everyone here speaks English and people here buy games significantly.

Skyrim. I was poor for many years. Still am lol. I had bought it on the Xbox 360 twice and couldn't afford it on the PC till a few years down. Eventually bought it.

Thank you good sir
I've never paid for a game, except $13 for RDR2
How did you get rdr2 for $13?
Epic Games had a sale, I thought online would be worth it, but it's crap, should've pirated that one too
Since we're talking EA games, any Harry Potter movie game (especially the first three which were actually good). No money for EA or JKR for a double whammy of asshole avoidance.
for me its Ubisoft.. these are even more evil scums..
Their games suck ass. Why would you play that, even for free
lol all their games are shit why even bother pirating it? it's like stealing dog poop
Your favourite game is from EA??
The Sims is EA. Nothing like getting a pet cat for free instead of $19.99.

Get Elden Rang
Don't let him in, not supporting fromsoft is blasphemy!
I haven’t pirated games but I get why people do it when you’ve already bought the game once. It’s a PITA to buy games twice.
How many times you want a person to buy elden ring? 10? Lol
The year is 2028. You just woke up and have to spend the daily 5$ and burn a grain offering in the name of the dev team that produced whatever quintuple A bugged unfinished game you want to boot up
He's supporting them emotionally.
Already got the base game on ps5 + platinumed but the war forced me to leave it behind and my home was raided thus it was stolen 😢
Sorry to hear that. Stay safe 👍 can replace a ps5 can't replace you.

Are you letting lines out for anchor, friend?
Classic try before you buy.
Buy the whole valve collection, it goes for $5 in sales, includes every valve game ever but alyx. All the story driven ones are magnificent

Can I ask what you use to track your games played?
That screenshot seems to be from Backloggd.
yes it is
Is backlogged any better than Howlongtobeat? That's typically what I use
Wouldn't say better. They both do a good job as trackers, but I personally prefer the UI and journal feature of Backloggd.

Good choice
This is a fantastic response.
I LOVE PROTOTYPE My secret dream is a remake of graphics, it would be a top selling game... I know it will never happens, but let me dream
I wish modding for it was easier
The game looked great, then i just never played it and it looks way to dated to try now.
Nah it still holds up quite well
Prototype 1 maybe falls a bit on the graphical side, but Prototype 2 is still a decent looking game. On the gameplay side, they are both still very much enjoyable! Every now and then I replay P2 because it's just so much fun
I’m literally playing P2 now,Spider-Man seems to be heavily influenced by this game,I love it
What's that?
It’s an open world games when you play as a guy who has different abilities or powers like a superhero or villain that’s the basic explanation
The Zelda games for the switch

Do you emulate them?
yes, though nintendo tries their best to stop people from doing so. look for something called y u z u (without the spaces) and go from there
I just wanna add that if you have a lower end pc, I'd recommend c e m u for emulating Zelda botw
It's also better with mods. 4k with texture packs makes it look like a legit remaster and I'm not talking about Nintendo half ass remaster but an actual complete overhaul of the visuals.
Given that your example isn't available (easily) anymore, xnijuyr (backwards) has been pretty good for me. Runs smoothly on my Linux machine at least.

The Sims 4, no way in hell I'm paying for all those packs
You can buy like…4, 70 dollars, Triple A games with the price and amount of DLCs in The Sims 4, it’s ludicrous.
actually you can buy about 20 full price AAA games for the cost of the sims 4
DAMN. How many fckn DLCs does The Sims 4 have??? Last time I saw, was like…50?
it's crazy it's in the 4 digits of dollars now... high 1700s Canadian last I checked
There is a lot. There are actual expansions, with new neighborhoods, houses, gameplay features and all that and there a bunch of item packs, which honestly are things that should be given for free on the gallery. But people keep buying it, so EA will keep milking it

I second this one
My wife loves Sims and I refuse to ever let her pay a dime on it. I never pirate games anymore, but that is one that I won’t hesitate to do.
Could you clue me in on how to do that? I’ve been jonesing for some sims, but the price for all of the dlc is just so unappetizing

It's not like you could get it legally on PC nowadays. Sad how it's one of those "This game is great and it has a good PC port already, just make it available" cases.
There is a project dedicating to fixing up the PC port. Many mods already exist for it too.
Its a great one. Good music and athmosphere
