Not sure if this goes here but i have a steam giftcard, but i also like free stuff for example piracy even if i barley do so and dont know much about it.
Its only 20 bucks but im not sure what its worth putting into.
Should i just get like a steam deck or something with a mix of my money and the gift card?
What would you advise?
Here’s my rule of piracy if you’re buying something
You’re really passionate about the product and you really want to support the developer or publisher
The game gets frequent updates which you see value in which causes issues whenever you have to download updates separately from another site
there is some type of online or connect feature that you cannot get offline that you see value in… This can be mods or multiplayer etc
Or if you want to play a game on a steam deck and it’s really cheap. After all, you and I both know it’s incredibly easy to play something on steam deck straight from Steam rather than having to shortcut to a pirated exe
