When Capcom announced that Dead Rising 3 was coming to the PC, a lot of PC gamers raised their fist in the air while shouting out loud. And when the Japanese company revealed that the PC version would be ideal for a 30FPS experience, pretty much all of them cursed them for its laziness. And – surprise surprise – it appears that this FPS issue is basically a result of laziness as a dev confirmed that it would be possible to overcome it, provided the Japanese company put enough effort to this port.
As ‘quantumnerd’ – a Dead Rising 3 developer – wrote on NeoGAF:
“The main problem with our engine is that it’s custom and in-house but we don’t have tons of resources (we make only one game series). And DR3 was developed over a generation transition to boot. All those factors together mean that we can get games out the door and design them mostly how we like, but the code incurs technical debt. So stuff like this happens when something like 60FPS isn’t considered in advance, but the engine is too hard to change– you have to basically rewrite large components, then push out extra QA. I’m guessing the higher-ups don’t think PC is enough of a priority for an expensive drive like that. I’d fix it myself, but I get terrified whenever I get into the entrenched code for the core of anything.”
Still, quantumnerd claimed that the PC version would be the definitive version as it will not suffer from framerate issues as the Xbox One version did (provided your hardware can handle this port). And as we’ve already reported, PC gamers will be able to unlock the game’s framerate without the need of modders.
All in all, this sounds like a mere port and nothing more. Ironically, Dead Rising 3 PC sports some pretty high PC requirements, which makes us wonder whether the game will be optimized for our platform or not.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

I believe in him. Engine aimed for medium-end PCs as XOne/PS4. lmao!
Keep telling yourself that, its limited on high end systems to smart guy.
Ok. Not that smart guy guest!
What!? there’s many of us? Great! Btw, what the hell is a corinthiansgo?

When Capcom announced that Dead Rising 3 was coming to the PC i Laughed and raised the Glorious finger, ironically it is probably better than the console version which says a lot.
How is being better than the unimpressive X1 version saying alot? Some people, man.
lol. but in all seriousness people won’t care about 900p or anything in 2015-2016 when they release their exclusives while PC gamers mostly have MMOs to look forward to as exclusives.( they are right not to care about 900p but supporting a console only for it’s exclusives while it is holding gaming industry back is wrong) also i meant it generally. devs didn’t care about the PC version and it is a bad port and yet it will probably be better than the console version which just shows how consoles are only alive with their exclusives. i would be surprised if Halo Collection or w/e comes to PC at least in recent years cause MS fears they might lose their console customers.
this is what happens when you develop a game for a weak ass console.
I really don’t think the developer’s explanation refers to laziness (rather the opposite, considering he seems willing to fix it)… rather he mentions that it’s an expensive endeavor, something that higher management probably isn’t willing to undertake. Considering the engine was developed mainly for Xbox One, I can see where he’s coming from.
Nevertheless, none of us have seen the game running at 60FPS (or 30 FPS) yet, so it’s best to reserve judgment till it is released.
Apologist!
You sir are a Feggit. its people like you that have caused the watered down ports because you will happily take what devs shit on you.
Anyway enjoy your watered down port, and all gayass indie games. I’ll enjoy my PS4.
Oh yes, please do enjoy your PS4… in all the appropriate places and positions might I add.
Atleast the dude comes out and says how it is, thumbs up!
So lets hope that the other dipshits higher up will change that f*ckn crap engine to a better ASAP or else most pc gamers wont touch the upcoming games!
Same as those clowns over EA that release a Pc version of that Need For Speed game at 30 fps. Those fagg*ts deserves the game beying pirate that way!
Not a penny for a sh*tty port if you ask me!
So EA/Capcom deserve their game to be pirated just because it runs at 30FPS? Please, just stop… you’re starting to sound like that other entitled c*nt John who’s been commenting here on the previous DR3 thread.
Yeh I don’t really understand some of these people who brag about pirating a game just because they don’t agree with the technical aspects of the game or the politics surrounding its release like GTA5. These people…
Yeah, sorry that we want a game that takes advantage of our hardware. Sorry we dont happily take the crap they give us. Just cuz you’re all for crap doesnt mean the rest of us have to be. Enjoy your artificially limited crap.
So you still think you’re entitled to play it? How about this: Don’t play the game you didn’t pay for?
How about a game that makes people want to spend money?
I stopped with piracy (and I’m never been so happy I must add), but there simply isn’t a “moral high ground” to be had. Companies are f’ing their customers and theirselves up and blaming the piracy for all the financial problems is completely bs.
But that’s beside the point. Regardless of whether a game is just a shitty port doesn’t justify piracy. Why should you be able to enjoy whatever game is developed without paying? There is no moral high ground for piracy and continuing to keep it/play it to end. It’s not morally wrong to release a game with 30 FPS if there is a technical reason for doing so, backed by an analysis of profit/loss and people are aware of it.
“Regardless of whether a game is just a shitty port doesn’t justify piracy.”
You are right, but still, you are paying for a bad product.
“Why should you be able to enjoy whatever game is developed without paying?”
“Enjoy” being the keyword. If you know what I mean.
“It’s not morally wrong to release a game with 30 FPS if there is a
technical reason for doing so, backed by an analysis of profit/loss and
people are aware of it.”
Partially
right, but how about this (my opinion mind you): “Hey how about we
release our game on that platform too? We can make more money.” “Yeah,
but let’s not bother making it right, people will buy anyway, we can
make excuses later.”
“Enjoy” being the keyword. If you know what I mean.
Yes enjoy. People often exaggerate ‘bad’ or ‘unplayable’ when describing a game, even with enjoyable game design aspects. Also, of course enjoy. Why else play/keep it?
“Hey how about we release our game on that platform too? We can make more money.” “Yeah, but let’s not bother making it right, people will buy anyway, we can make excuses later.”
Sure they could release it on other platforms to earn more profit however from what Capcom is saying, it would seem they would have to completely recreate certain modules and extra play testing. There are general formulas for calculating present value profit based on perceived demand when incorporating costs, and it just so happens that costs were just too great. There may have been profit even if they were to fix these modules, but they must have paled in comparison to releasing it as is. There is nothing evil about releasing it in 30 FPS. It may not be the best outcome gameplay wise, but it’s not implemented just because they hate PC players.
“Yes enjoy. People often exaggerate ‘bad’ or ‘unplayable’ when describing a game, even with enjoyable game design aspects. Also, of course enjoy. Why else play/keep it?”
I’m gonna speak for me. If I am not enjoying a game, I simply won’t play it. Sometimes I play it to the end to see if at least in the end I can make some experience out of it.
Now imagine if you spend you money in the game and are not able to enjoy it, you become a “hostage” of whether the store have some customer friendly policy to get something back. You can say that the buyer should be aware of what they are getting right? BUT increasingly, the companies today are adopting shaddy practices that even the most aware buyer can be trapped. How’s that for enjoyment?
“There are general formulas for calculating present value profit based on perceived demand when incorporating costs, and it just so happens that costs were just too great.” There may have been profit even if they were to fix these modules, but they must have paled in comparison to releasing it as is.
“There is nothing evil about releasing it in 30 FPS. It may not be the best outcome gameplay wise, but it’s not implemented just because they hate PC players.”
C’mon, really? That’s exactly the “excuse” that I mentioned.
This release is exactly what it is. A straight up port. A cash grab. If they care enough to release the damn thing and to call it a “definitive edition” (I’m hating all these terms these days) maybe they should care enough to do it right. And don’t come to the public and saying “support the devs”, “stealing” or “artistic integrity”. This is straight up business (sadly). People deal with it in a variety of ways.
Just to conclude: I do not support piracy anymore (and I really used to) but giving crap to people who do, it’s just… wrong.
“but giving crap to people who do, it’s just… wrong.”
It seems your sense of right and wrong is very different from that established by society. There is nothing justified in piracy, period. Feel free to put forward your views so I may clear your doubts in this regard.
Who said I have doubts?
“There’s nothing justified in piracy, period.”
“In general, we think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. For example, if a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the U.S. release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable. Most DRM solutions diminish the value of the product by either directly restricting a customers use or by creating uncertainty.”
Gabe Newell
(Don’t know why steam still sh!t)
Actually when I said you might have doubts, I was being polite. It’s better to assume good faith instead of flat out claiming you’re wrong (which you are), isn’t it?
Next up, I’ve read that wall of text elsewhere in relation to a similar discussion on piracy. But kindly elaborate on how what Gabe Newell said “justifies” piracy. Not merely “analyze”, assuming you’re aware of the difference. Do me that favor so I can first understand where you’re coming from.
I thought it was clear :/
Most of the time pirates offer a better job than the original owner. It is kinda like “consumer friendly” than most of the sh!t going on on the game industry these days.
I think I know what you mean by “justify”, all that copyright “thing”, and that discussion can last for sooooo looooong.
“Most of the time pirates offer a better job than the original owner. It
is kinda like “consumer friendly” than most of the sh!t going on on the
game industry these days.”
— Again, how does that “justify” piracy? How does that “justify” not paying for the game but playing it anyway? (to make it clearer)
“I think I know what you mean by “justify”, all that copyright “thing”, and that discussion can last for sooooo looooong.”
— Nope, I’m asking for the reason you think the way you do. We can get into copyrights and the technical guts of it later on only if necessary.
Goodnes gracious…
— Again, how does that “justify” piracy? How does that “justify” not paying for the game? (to make it clearer)
It justify for people that don’t have money or don’t want pay (for “x” reasons). It is simple. The only people who complain about piracy are the ones who already bought and/or have more conditions to acquire it.
I think that way, because I was there…
*glazing eyes towards the horizon*.
Oh I’m sorry, I hope I’m not causing you too much trouble with these questions. I’m just curious.
“It justify for people that don’t have money or don’t want pay (for “x” reasons). It is simple.”
— “How” does it justify? Give me the reason if it’s so simple. Surely you’re not trying to avoid my questions.
“The only people who complain about piracy are the ones who already bought and/or have more conditions to acquire it.”
— I’ll get to this part after you answer my previous question.
“I think that way, because I was there…”
— Lol, you mean along with the other freeloaders with no money but a huge entitlement?
Not causing any trouble mate, I just think that we aren’t getting nowhere. The “justify” thing you keeps mention comes to me like a point of view, hence my previous comment (people who buy x people who don’t/can’t).
“– Lol, you mean along with the other freeloaders with no money but a huge entitlement?”
“Entitled” I’ll take that for me with a little bit of irony. I think I have a point made.
“The “justify” thing you keeps mention comes to me like a point of view,
hence my previous comment (people who buy x people who don’t/can’t).”
— I’m not causing any trouble either. Just asking questions. But since you’re having trouble comprehending, let me cut to the chase. If you don’t have the money, you don’t play the game, end of story. You don’t steal it. And NO, this isn’t a point of view. Games are commodities that have to be paid for, like most other things on this planet. If you’ve been raised in some utopia believing otherwise, I suggest you change your perspective.
“”Entitled” I’ll take that for me with a little bit of irony. I think I have a point made.”
— What “point” were you trying to make exactly, other than coming across as completely oblivious to what I said?
— I’m not causing any trouble either. Just asking questions. But since

your perspective.
Not going to argue. Games are commodities there’s no denial about that. My point is, people that don’t pay for it are a potential market. Make it available for people with less aquisitive power, put up a effort to deliver a good product, and gain trust and respect of your consumer, then you will have something to complain about if people are “stealing” (lol, can’t believe) you work. The game industry have so much potential to overcome a lot of this “moral debate” but they just don’t have the guts to do so. They are relying on all of this argument about commodities to increasingly put up anti consumer policies (not to mention the multi billion productions nowadays).
— What “point” were you trying to make exactly, other than coming across as completely oblivious to what I said?
I said (now I repeat) : “people who buy are the ones who complain” for what you said “Entitled & freeloaders with no money but a huge entitlement?” to wich I assumed you are one who never pirated hence my comment about point being made.
Gosh, this is getting nowhere.
“My point is, people that don’t pay for it are a potential market.”
— So? How does that have anything to do with stealing being justified?
“then you will have something to complain about if people are “stealing” (lol, can’t believe) you work.”
— Uh, in short no. Mistreatment of customers, lack of access, lack of finances… none of these legitimizes stealing. You’re arguing the ethics of business practices, something which has zero relation to this discussion.
“The game industry have so much potential to overcome a lot of this “moral debate” but they just don’t have the guts to do so.”
— Again, so? Either you’re completely missing the point repeatedly or are purposely sidestepping the issue with your monologue. Let me reiterate, I am looking for specific reasons from your end that logically prove “stealing” to be legitimate. So far you’ve provided nothing other than why you think the industry is screwed
“I said (now I repeat) : “people who buy are the ones who complain” for what you said “Entitled & freeloaders with no money but a huge entitlement?””
— I still don’t get what you’re on about, but I’ll try to clear it from my end so it’s easier for you to understand. Those who steal are a bunch of entitled (excuse my language) c*nts, no ifs no buts. You can’t afford a game? You think the industry sucks? Well, guess what Einstein, don’t play the fucking game, instead of stealing it and playing it anyway like a filthy thief. Gaming isn’t your god-given right, it’s a privilege. A privilege for those, and only those who have paid for it.
(Note: You isn’t really “you” in particular, just a figure of speech).
–“”Stealing”(three times), entitled c*nts(not related, rude nonethless) & filthy thief.”
I simply don’t agree with piracy=stealing. The “ethics of business practices” has total relation to the discussion, especialy when you use the aforementioned therm. Gonna shoot my foot here and say: You can in TECHNICAL (morally) therms call it “selfish thievery” (I’m getting for free, what is meant to be sold to me) but what it is really is a sale displacement. Take the business practice x the place/people that the game is being sold you cannot call it stealing, if I’m not a potential customer so no sale displacement (I’m replacing a sale fo a loss). Unless it’s a indie game where the dev(s) have total control over his/her creation and put up their own money to make the “things”, piracy in this discussion (games, movies, music,entertainment in general) it is just a copyright issue.
Gaming isn’t your god-given right, it’s a privilege. A privilege for those, and only those who have paid for it.
Hence my talk about making it more affordable. Taking off people’s chances then claiming it is because of them that things aren’t going so well is at the very least… frivolous. Yes, games are a luxury, but that’s not the consumer fault, it is the publishers fault.
” if I’m not a potential customer so no sale displacement”
— If you’re not a potential customer, doesn’t mean you have the right to steal it. I thought I was clear enough. Just because you’re not causing a “potential loss in sales” doesn’t entitle you to steal it. What part of this do you not understand? If you are getting it for free, it IS stealing, and you’re a thief. There is no fucking justification under the sun that will absolve you of it.
“Yes, games are a luxury, but that’s not the consumer fault, it is the publishers fault.”
— And that justifies stealing just because it’s expensive? If it’s expensive, you don’t buy it and forget about it till you can actually afford it. Prostitution is fucking expensive, does that mean you’ll force yourself on the woman just cause you can’t pay her fees? Oh wait, I know, you’ll blame it on the woman and say it’s her fault.
You keep saying stealing, we will never agree on this. Stealing would imply one acquiring something to her/his own benefit. That’s not the case. You think you own a game when you buy it? C’mon companies today are charging you for the “privilege” of playing it. You don’t own anything, people aren’t stealing, they are circumventing their ways in order to “enjoy” (read previous reply) something. Companies will apply “luxury” as in something desirable, something worth paying the luxury price, when it really is something dispensable, something you can live without.
Please let’s end this “going nowhere discussion”, we clearly won’t change our own opinions. You already started make nonsense comparations (prostitution & games really?), won’t be long untill we reach YT level. I want to maintain some respect that I still have for you person (a stranger to me, mind you), so I shan’t reply again.
“You keep saying stealing, we will never agree on this.”
— Would a thief agree he’s a thief? And I’m not looking for your agreement. I’m just saying it the way it is.
“Stealing would imply one acquiring something to her/his own benefit.”
— You’re acquiring the game illegally for your own benefit, not to cure cancer and poverty.
“You think you own a game when you buy it?”
— No one ever owns the game, because software is intangible. What you do own however, is the license, which gives you the exclusive right to use the software.
“people aren’t stealing, they are circumventing their ways in order to “enjoy” (read previous reply) something.”
— Circumventing in order to enjoy something that they were NOT SUPPOSED TO enjoy without paying for, just like the prostitution example I used before. That is a crime.
“You already started make nonsense comparations (prostitution & games really?)”
— Why not? As far as business models go, they’re similar. If it’s nonsense, I’d like to see you disprove it.
“I want to maintain some respect that I still have for you person (a stranger to me”
— Sure, I have no loss of respect for you as long as you buy your own games. You can continue supporting the c*nts who steal and still I’d respect you, but don’t expect me to be quiet about it and agree with you. As long as you don’t become a c*nt yourself, I’m cool.
Crying over a pirated game? What whine bag, what are you a company shill?
” or the politics surrounding its release like GTA5.”
No politics rockstar north doesnt do the pc version other studios do, every freaking time.
I was referring to the game being delayed instead of being a simultaneous release that people find qualm with, regardless of which studio does it.
and i told you thats why its delayed because rockstar north does NOT do the pc version, so they have to make it first and then give it to another studio to port it to pc.
Yeh so what? That’s not my point. People want to pirate it because its being delayed. Policy: Rockstar North doesn’t do PC release, ergo game is delayed, ergo people think they should pirate.
that is a stupid logic, i hope people dont think like that, good pc version> bad pc version on launch.
Well there’s this guy: http://vr-zone.com/articles/e3-2014-gta-v-gets-pc-release-date/79019.html#comment-1429138566
Apologist! You work for Capcom?
Yes. And you don’t work at all, which is why you think you’re entitled to free sh*t, correct?
I don’t think Im entitled to sh*t, scumbag, but they aint entitled to my money either. And its funny that you tell me I don’t work when you don’t work. You bum, I probably make more than your entire family works. And for your information, I wouldn’t even take this POS for free. And you do not work at Capcom, you don’t work at all.
Lol, stop. You work? How come you’re here on the internet defending piracy and calling me an “apologist” then, scumbag? That too from a Guest account. Now get back inside your dumpster and play with turd, hobo.
These types of comments have got to be some of the dumbest ones around this site. It seems the minute someone offers an objective and detailed reason for something someone doesn’t like, they are an apologist or are working for the company or a fanboy….
Seems to me like someone who doesn’t have an intelligent counter argument or just doesnt want to have a decent conversation.
A certain someone else on here did the same to me because i mentioned reasons why rock star most likely didn’t release a PC version right away and isn’t just to shit on PC gamers.
Objectivism isn’t taken kindly on here by PC fanboys.
Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t right and as a pc gamer i hate it but there’s a reason for a lot of things devs do that people should consider.
Unless you are just EA and signed your soul to the devil of course…. I joke I joke… Lol
agree with most of your post but no pirate. if a game is good we buy it, if it’s not good we don’t buy it, why should we pirate it ? if the game is bad and not worth money, then we wont buy it
It’s ‘a more cinematic experience’… hahaha !
Devs will be pulling that off for as long as gamers deal with it.
and sonytards believe em.
fine by me. i’ve said it once and i’ll say it again: a rock solid 30 fps is perfectly fine for any (or most) tps games.
personally, i’m going to downsample the shit out of it, likely 4k, and run it at ultra settings for eye candy and lock it to 30 fps.
Right.
Yeah, if it’s a consistent 30fps, the gameplay is mellow, and there’s a lot of junk onscreen I can deal with it. But, if it’s a twitch-based game with split-second timing I need at least 60 fps.
I just…don’t…30fps eye candy…I can’t even
I usually get 60fps on all games but Warch_Dogs drops to 35-40 sometimes, it’s hidious. 30 is even worse.
Still okay with this though , Can see major performance issues coming but can live with them.
so can you uncap or no? id rather see bugs cause if theyre like LA Noire, theyl make the game funnier xD
Joke 2014 this far=Pc the lead platform
What!?
he is refering to devs calling their bad ports as “Lead Platform”. technically it is still lead though so it is funny in that way as well :)).
Will it have guaranteed drops to 15 fps like Xbone version too then?
BTW this is what happens when you sign your life away to Microsoft like Crapcom did over have a decade ago. We wouldn’t want a version that looks THAT much better than the Xbone version of course.
Garbage. Expect it to run like shit on beast rigs.
that doesn’t even make sense….
hum? what do you now understand? let me break it down for ya real quick, they made this game for Xboxone right?, the specs on the xbone are pretty limited allowing only 720p with the average of 20 fps, being this is just a straight port, capcom just copy pasted the xbone version without tweaking it, God knows if its going to be 1080p and a stable 30FPS, judging by how capcom cares about the pc version, i would not be surprised if the port itself is going to pure shit, if not the worst port this year.
Also, Capcom decided to list high requirements in order to cover up its bad port, its like saying, “we dont wanna optimize so buy a new PC”
To be fair, MS funded the entire game. DR3 wouldn’t have existed without MS. Got to give them credit for that.
It makes perfect sense
Now watch a 60 fps mod get released the same day as the game.
that’s what capcom said. Leave it to a modder.lol
Looks like it’s a torrent version for me!
yes but not without problems..
There probably won’t be any problems. Dark Souls 1 was programmed at 30 fps, DSFix unlocked the FPS and I never had an issue. The most I heard about were people falling through the floor when descending a ladder at 120 fps.
i love DR3 but that 30fps is some kind of deal breaker, however we must wait and see, if the port is good and a mod make it 60fps, why not buy it
Welp good job CrapCom. We will just get our eye patches and PIRATE hats on. You get what you give.
Except when you’re pirating, you’re getting something by not giving anything, C*ntryboy. You should probably go back to collecting your welfare instead of stealing games.
FoolingRibbon…. the PC crowd could give a damn about receiving handouts or being treated like second class when it’s obvious their hardware is superior in every possible way to consoles of the current gen or even the next gen that hasn’t come out yet. If they want to continue releasing games like this or scaled down the PC version because of the gimped console version… to hell with them. To hell with you for supporting BS like that too. Especially from Capcom, a company that as been taking advantage of gamers across ALL platforms since the SNES.
We are entering a stage where developers can escape from their laziness because gamers allow it and because devs can “abuse” the modding community to fix up their shit.
PC gaming my ass.
Well I agree that Capcom can f*ck up stuff and are not perfect, but I think that author of the topic kinda overreacts with that “Do not care enough for PC”. They released and re-released so many games on it and DLCs for many of their games, yes, there were some issues with some of them too, but still….reading something like “Capcom doesn’t care enough for PC” just because of that 30FPS thing IMHO is kinda redicilous.
The spec requirements for this game is a little insane. Anyway, now I have a reason to upgrade my 680 to a Titan Black or 780ti.
Eh.
I’d complain, but Dead Rising 2 was poorly optimized, too. Eh. You go in, you know what you’re getting, and you buy it anyway, so then who’s to blame?
I’m glad it’s coming to PC. I wish PC was more of a priority, but I guess I remember the early days when PC wasn’t a priority at all. I remember Ubisoft porting (poorly) and releasing Resident Evil 4, so…
I’m just glad it’s coming to PC. I figured it was when Microsoft trumpeted it as an “Xbox exclusive” that was “never going anywhere else.” The developer as good as admitted they’d started work on it as a PC title, so the code was there waiting to be released.
Basically, a money tree that was just waiting to grow.
no it wasnt a friend of mine barelly hit the requirements and maxed it out, it was locked in 30 fps though.
Devs: “sorry guys, it’d just be too hard to do”
*modder fixes it in 5 hours*
this, wtf gamign industry, its like jim sterling says about female characters devs say its too hard yet it is easilly done, i said it before and ill say it again, devs nowdays are lazy.
lolwhat?
i say this is extreme shortsightedness, and im not even complaining cuz i play on PCs
imagine remaking this game for the Xbox Two or whatever, “oops we didnt write this engine to be able to run at over 30 FPS”
imagine porting this to the PS4, “oops we didnt write this engine to be able to run at over 30 FPS”
probably some extra work must also be done for the sequel if they want to make it run at a better frame rate
BAD DEV!, BAD! NOW SIT AND CODE BETTER!
atleast the guy isnt bullshitting us like the order devs and his excuse is reasonable, we all know capcom has been in better shape before and they ARE a relatively small team
meh, whatever, same game, hopefully it gets released with all the DLC and it becomes easy to mod

“the PC crowd could give a damn about receiving handouts”
— Except you’ve been intending to do just that by pirating the game to begin with. Care to explain?
“CoolingGibbon, why does anyone have to justify anything to you?”
— No one has to. My very problem is with these thieves trying to justify their actions in the first place.
“The law is not biblical force, holy writ by god, it is written by human beings.”
— So is software. Let’s say I write the software. So I lay down the terms. If you, as an individual, don’t like my terms, don’t use my software. No rights taken, no respect lost. But stealing it and then trying to justify doing so is nothing short of pitiful.
“So why should I obey?”
— Because you didn’t create the software. If you want to use it, you MUST obey. Don’t like it, don’t play it.
“why should one have any respect for them?”
— You can disrespect them all you want, and no one’s stopping you. Disrespect and crime aren’t the same.
“Why should I behave in an honorably with those who sneer contemptuously at me, as a consumer?”
— Honor has nothing to do with the law. Honor is voluntary, law is not. If you break the law as a result of honor, you must face the consequences. Ubisoft may have done something wrong, but none of it breaks any given law. Pirating a game, does. You an argue the pros and cons, and if you want someone to blame, blame the lawmakers.
“Just because the law tells men something, that does not mean that men should (or will) mindlessly obey.”
— Really? Would you be saying the same thing if someone stole something of yours? Those who don’t obey must be punished, because that’s the law. Don’t like the law? Then campaign for a change in the copyright system if you really want change.
“It is part of being a man.”
— Breaking the law is part of being a man? Oh please, tell me more. I must be so feminine then!
“but there is little one can do about them .”
— For starters, you can stop putting up with their shit. If you think something is wrong, you have to fight for what is right; but not by doing something wrong in return.
“However I have no problem with those fucking the big money cunts right back.”
— And I have no problem with you, because you pay for your games. But I do not tolerate those who steal. I don’t expect you to change your views regarding that, so don’t expect me to change mine.
“Also because I have used an emulator since 2000 technically I am a pirate as well.”
— Yes/No. Depends on the copyright in question. Some games have expired copyrights, or are released as abandonware. I think one can go ahead and download these rather legitimately.
i informed him of how rockstar operates hopefully that gives him some understand of the situation.
