It is nice to see people still having a conciousness towards entertainment products and that some of them are not a cig you bumed from a stranger. It also speaks of the quality of Amnesia, having an impact on the OPs mind and making him buy it. I forgot who said it (maybe Cliff Blezinski? could be Garriot or Newell...dunno`, but it fits the big boy) but "The answer to piracy is not in DRM, but in providing better products and service". Imho that is very true. Give people something of high and long lasting value and the piracy at least goes down a bit.
That said, I don`t think this thread is necessary... "self respect is the biggest respect someone can get" (Louie Simmons). No need to seek redemption from someone else here. It is also a bit meladramatic as others have said.
I'm pretty sure Gabe Newell said that
Better to have a story and end it, then to never realise it has begun...
