I know some people get really upset at the idea of pirating indies but even $20 feels like a lot of money to spend on a video game I'm not sure if I'll like and play all the way through. 80? Forget about it.

i don't really understand the moralizing about pirating indie games. like, piracy is not stealing. i was not going to buy it. i am more likely to buy a game after pirating it bc i realized i liked it.

I'm pretty sure its small business brainworms

ah yea that makes sense

especially since this argument is usually used for indie games that did quite well or had high budgets. i dont think the creator of stardew valley is gonna miss my $10 that much.
