Yep. And this is not theft. You can make up laws as much as you like but don't think they are in effect.

If you discuss anything anywhere then you should at least get your facts right.

You don't take it, you copy it. So it simply can't be theft no matter how often you repeat it.

Little question:
If you end up in a court, which is very unlikely, you will be charged with:
a, Theft
b, Copyright infringement

And guess what will earn you the harder punishment.

Dodgy You are arguing semantics. If everyone "only" copies games without paying for them, how does a game publisher make money? It doesn't matter if it is a small company like Frictional or a huge one like EA. If no one pays for anything, they go out. Period. But in you eyes that is ok, because it is only copying.

Rationalize anyway you want. You obviously have pirated games before (and most most likely movies and music) and think that it is ok. If Frictional and other small devs go out, you will have no one to blame but yourself.
