0·1 day agoI’ve still got to peruse reviews to see if it’s for me, but it’s looking likely. If you want to put your money where your mouth is and show that there’s demand for DRM-free games, it’s also available day 1 on GOG.
I agree with the first sentence, but that’s what I feel this slogan does a poor job of reinforcing.
If you’re endorsing piracy as a political stance in any way, I don’t see it gaining traction. People need to be paid for their work; especially those who built a product for you that’s meant to last and can’t be taken away from you. I don’t know how you convey that in a three- or four-word slogan, but I don’t think this one does it.
It is not self-explanatory. You needed to explain it. On its face, it sounds like it’s saying to just pirate. I can get behind the message, but these three words aren’t it. I know that coming up with effective, catchy slogans is hard, but this one’s not going to do well.


Leveraged buyout. Any dev still on payroll is a liability, and it’s not like these guys make Ultimate Team. EA’s got a lot of debt to service.
