Except you've given no reason you shouldn't play those games, nor any reason to think that everyone can afford the games they play and instead resorted to personal attacks because I think its not unreasonable to play a game for free when the publisher asks for a month's salary for it (or for part of it). You're ignoring all the points I put forward, and examples I give showing that people can't afford the access price and just declaring everyone entitled for wanting media. But no, you're right, all these poor people are just entitled, anyone who doesn't have money to pay the asking price should stop thinking they're better than these poor, poor investment companies and just accept that some culture just isn't for poors like them.

I didn’t have to. You’ve given reasons for why not to play those games. You’re just pretending like they’re reasons for not paying for them rather than for not playing them.

And they’re not personal attacks because they’re not directed towards just you. I’ve given plenty of evidence and reason for why people who do so are entitled. A personal attack is attacking the person making the argument. My argument is that people are making excuses because they’re entitled.
