Why shall we bear all those costs and others don’t
That sounds like standard supply demand. If you can bear it, and there is no alternative, you will. But moreover as was mentioned there are reasons that may require a product being different prices in different markets as operating expenses are not the same. The simple cost of launching a product in different markets incurs different costs, and thus different prices. That's a trivial example, and with vehicles it gets really complex at the regulatory level, especially in regulatory-rich countries which are common in the EU.
They're the ones who initiate the repeating.
We don't even treat other humans on earth with dignity and respect and you think anything will change for whales as drastically as you propose? Maybe I'm mega jaded but I see this having little impact.
You need to disconnect the badness with the term stealing because you're just wrong. Yeah it's ip infringement. Yes it's illegal. Yes people are impacted. And still... Not stealing.
Gaming nerds dictating how business should operate is one of the funniest things to observe.
Piracy was never theft regardless.
Because it works perfectly fucking fine and people are using it and windows upgrades are more effort than not upgrading. That's really it.
I don't think anyone is trying to justify it, simply frame it in proportion to what it was.
Irrelevant to someone that wants their game to run.
