    Well, if it were for me, i'd send to THQ a video of me pirating the game, showing them the bar in progress and stuff.

    Pirating is the way to fight these Diktats. I'm sure they would change their policy if 70% of the players used pirated versions, obeying like headless sheep is just like playing their dirty and lewd game.

    Some of those who posted in this thread apparently regard liking a game and its publisher as a oath of feudal loyalty towards the studio.

    Free Speech? If this forum allowed free speech/posting then numerous threads in the past would not have got deleted regarding leaked content or magazines. Whether that was done at the request of THQ I don't know.

    So much for being fans of the franchise!! You lot are being hypocritical by suggesting that you'd pirate the game just to get one over on THQ. Whether you do something illegal is your business, but remember every pirated copy results in less money for the publishers and furthermore less chance of a sequel (Metro 2034) being produced.

    I don't know if people are being short sighted by saying "I don't care if THQ go under as long as I get Last Light" But what about the future? I hope after Last Light that there is further DLC and games being produced by the studio.

    There's a phrase we use in the gaming industry to show disapproval of practices and it's called "Vote with your wallet." By not purchasing a game you don't add to global sales and then publishers take notice.

    The LE issue is nothing but a storm in a teacup and is been blown all out of proportion. If and when Joe posts here and clarifies the decision made by THQ there will be a few people needing to eat humble pie.

    I'm more upset that "fans" are suggesting pirating the game more than the LE issue.

    Oh Yeah lets pirate all games ,so that we get More DRM ,Yay thats so clever:derp:
    The only way to show THQ that its the wrong game is to NOT BUY THE GAME,then they can say to them self:Oh nobody wants our Game We have done something wrong.If you pirate it, then the message they get is:I Like your Game and you do everything right but I'm an evil pirate and don't want to pay for it.

    That's not how it works. They would simply stop developing games of the Survival Horror genre, thinking that the audience does not like that. If you pirate the game, and they notice it, it's like saying "The game is fine, but there is something about the marketing/whatever it is that i don't like"

    Pirating is an anwer to DRM. If you want a game and the legal version has DRM and a pirated version doesn't, you're going to buy or pirate it?
    It can't be right that a pirated version is better than the legal version.

    I'm guessing you've missed the three or four comments I've made, repeating myself how I wouldn't burn pirates at the stake but would never pirate stuff myself either, right? Or did you just pull that out of your ass to feed your bad argument?

    Also, you obviously fail to understand the reasons behind the statements of the people who did say that, so why continue this charade?

    Anyway, I think it would be best if Skaara or Von locked this thread - at least for now. People have already said some questionable things and I don't want to end up saying something I'll regret later too, and I might since I'm losing my temper.

    In the end, I do think someone should show this to Joe. One way or another, these reactions need to reach THQ. They should know what hell they've unleashed here.

    Take Note:

    When you have to swear or insult to prove a point in an argument you loose all credibility and no-one will take you seriously again.

    I'm sorry, I'm a teenager and I lose my temper quite easily. I hope you accept my apology.

    Indeed, this thread is getting out of hand. Suddenly the relaxing atmosphere is gone and there are two camps, ridicilous.

    I've sent a message to Joe with a short explanation and a link to this thread. We'll see what he will say, for the better or worse.

    I must say my disappointment is high. But I'll preorder the game anyway, because, in the end, that's all that matters..

    It's only because you love the game that you lost your temper; people react differently. Apology accepted. :)

    Now let's get back on topic and hope Joe addresses our concerns. I see you've already e-mailed him, so I hope we get answer next week.
