    I figure most low level employees receive a salary which remains unaffected by company performance until layoffs begin. Mostly I steal things because I like to actually own them, and most modern publishers hate the idea of you actually owning your copy of the game. If they would sell this game to me without DRM, I would buy it. Frankly, I probably won’t even bother with GTA6, I fully expect it to be a dud. Rockstar seems stuck waaay in the past with how they structure story and game play, and RDR2 proved that to me irrevocably. Go to marker, shoot these guys, and listen to what these other guys say before and after. They have been riding on how they build open worlds for too long, and personally I just don’t find it terribly compelling anymore.

      Company performance affects salaries and layoffs even if it’s not 1:1. You’re making decisions that have financial impact on others and you never bothered to think what is their opinion on it.

      Have you considered just ignoring GTA VI rather than anticipating it to be such a good game that you’re definitely going to pirate it, giving it free publicity in the process? It’s not even out yet, it might suck.

        I just said I probably won’t bother with it. But I do enjoy being a stinker and ive detected that this game is overhyped, and I just can’t help myself but to poke at the people looking forward to it.
