Well, what on Earth would you call somebody who complains that a company is charging whatever price they want for a luxury good?

Remember people. It's always better to ignore your opponents actual arguments and nitpick on a single issue, so that you can pretend that you won. Of course you admitted that you didn't purchase the game, since you quite clearly stated that you wouldn't be supporting Bethesda with your money.

My, Graeme, I can't understand what you're doing : trying to disqualify people discontent by the attitude of the publishers who makes paying mods, and call them pirates ?

If you can't understand it, then perhaps you should go back and re-read the thread so that you can see where Vicious Love both claims to have played the game, and states that he won't be buying it in the very same post. Now, if he played it on somebody else's computer, then that would have been the obvious response to my initial suggestion that he didn't purchase the game. It might also serve you well to figure out that there's a difference between calling a software pirate a pirate, and calling people who are upset that they can't get their luxuries for whatever price they want pirates. I did the first, I didn't do the latter.

Re: Gothic II gold
Graeme, I dont think that you should accuse someone with piracy. For example my friend also tried the game using my copy, and my brother also, and they both decided that they dont want to buy the game, since they disliked it.

But the EULA for Oblivion says that no one else is allowed to play your version of the game. Didn't you read it all before clicking "I accept" while installing??? For that matter, you aren't allowed to let people watch you play, because Oblivion's near-cinematic experience is a Single Player game! If someone else wants to see it, they have to buy a ticket! You sir are a pirate!

Re: Pirates of Oblivion
That crazy Van-Gogh looking guy... always forgetting to start his tongue-in-cheek tags correctly. On the matter of EULAs, you should try buying a new version of Space Empires IV from Strategy First. You get one install, and then you're done! Unless you want to send about half a dozen emails over a week to convince them that you really deleted the copy from your old computer, you better like the hard drive to which you install.
Lets see if we can get this thread longer than the wishlist! Come on guys, you aren't really trying!

Nope tbh I didnt read it. Are you serious that someone is not allowed to try out the game using my original disc? This is just making no sense. That person wont copy it or anything, just taking a look at the game, it is acting like a demo or something..wow if this is true, this is pretty dumb I must say.
