Well there are games where I absolutely cannot justify paying for unless there is a sale or waiting for it to go on discount due to being super old.
However I still don't pirate them just because they are priced too high if they are steam because I know eventually I will still have easy access I just need to be patient.
Cae in point this summer sale a game that came out 2-3 years ago I finally bought because it was 50% off its original $100 price tag (CAD). Finally felt it would be worth it.
Never pirates it became I knew steam would provide easy access and an eventual sale.
