Piracy is cool and good. Legitimately don't even know if I'll play the game, but it's cool that the scene is just churning out cracks like mad

    Anyone else just doesn't even bother with the size of game nowadays?

      Tbh if I do unpack it I'm going to have to clear some space, my computer is living in the years when ssds were still expensive. Might buy some upgrades if/when I can find a new job so I can just stay inside and :chavez-guns: when the next pandemic hits

          The hard part is if I should wait for some sales or just buy something now before they can price jack ahead of black friday/cyber monday to make it seem like the sales are bigger

            This was my conundrum as well but I decided to go for it (also needed a PC for work). Good timing because the pandemic is fully back where I am. It was also my first ever PC so that changes things a bit.

            I lurk a fuckton on /r/buildapc (because consumerism > communism, always) and the consensus seems to be that most parts don't really go on sale. SSDs might be an exception though? Either way the most significant/cheapest upgrade you can make is for sure an SSD so if you have extra money I'd go for it. If you're not desperate maybe look up sale history of SSDs to see if you can save like $20 on one. In any case I bought a 1TB NVME SSD for ~$100 and I have no regrets. Even the cheapest SATA SSD will be around ~100 billion times faster than an HDD.

              Have they got any filters or searches that look for just canada? I always find decent deals but then see it ships from the states and then charges shipping, duties, and extra tax bringing it to worse than before. Maybe I can find a coupon or something to help me make up my mind; I'm trying to decide between the ssd and a hotwire table for crafting and they're both in that 100-150cad range
