Hi Desiri.
this might be true as per your example of someone losing their site and
needing to come to terms with pricing of audiogames, however in the card,
board game case I don't think that is as much a reason for pirates, since
what most people who are! inclined to buy games do if a game is too
overpriced and there is a cheaper version elsewhere is simply get the
cheaper one.
I can think of several occasions when, writing the db I've found a
commercial game and thought the price too high for what the game was *cough
azabat *cough, but I'm not convinced that that causes piracy so much as
people just looking elsewhere.
However I do also agree on pricing. A great example here is pontes
backgammon. As I've said before in terms of game design I'm deeply
impresssed with the game, the online play, the many features, the board
review options etc, however there is a limited amount I am prepared to pay
for a board game, even one so well designed. at $9 however, Manu got the
price just right, which is at least a discouragement for pirates.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.
