How does no multiplayer = more pirating? That doesn't make sense. People will pirate the game if they want it and don't want to pay for it. No other reason.

I think he means this: "If a game is not going to have Multiplayer, it had better not cost me $50, which is the price I pay for games that have multiplayer." The not-so-honest person then justifies themselves pirating the game because they claim it is "over priced and under featured" (which, of course, is wrong).

It's kinda like religion, with the same information/existance, we decide to take different stances on what it means.

Actually, my point about no MP=more pirating is that most pirated copies of games are not able to be played online nowadays (for the most part, as with everything else there's some workarounds like cracked servers etc), so if someone wants to have access to that portion of the game they need to buy a legit copy. It's for that reason a lot of people pirated Doom3, because the MP portion wasn't much to speak of (to them, anyway).

I'm not saying it's right, but it's true.
