        It’s simply a comment on how piracy =/= lost sales. Don’t look too far into it.

        Nope. It’s a common joke to show that a company doesn’t actually lose money when a game is pirated.

        No. Afaik this only takes effect after certain revenue and install thresholds.

          F2P games can still make money. Look: microtransactions. So this absolutely applies to them.

          That effects free to play games that make money, also demos for games that make money…

      For this green text to be properly updated, the first line needs to be changed to, “Purchase game on Steam.”
