You specifically chose one sentence from my argument and anilised that
Two sentences.
And I find copyright infringement still unethical. Because you are taking what’s not yours, and the thing you’re taking - is not some vital resource type you’re taking out of desperation. It’s a game.
But does the legal owner deserve to own it and profit off it? Again I ask you, do you understand the difference between what is ethical and what is legal.
It’s a game.
Piracy extends to all forms of media and software, not just games. I believe media is still incredibly important to a persons development. Media in all forms is a way to learn from other people and create a deeper understanding of how the world works. And taking that away from something because they don’t have the means to access it legally is not right. On top of this people deserve to have fun, and taking away peoples opportunity to have fun just because they don’t have the means to access it legally is also not right.

What is ethical to one - isn’t for another. That’s why we have a legal system.

Who will pay for game development and distribution?
Huh? The legal system would politely disagree.
For the USA look it up in the USPTO database (USPTO = United States Patent and Trademark Office) or in game’s EULA.

Do you understand there is a difference between what is legal and what is ethical and sometimes the law can be unfair or unethical?
I still dont see any issues in a victimless crime.

I stand corrected.
