That probably doesn’t come as much of a surprise to retro gaming enthusiasts, but those outside the gaming community might not even know there is a problem…

If the game is complete abandonware, and not sold on any digital storefronts, is it even still piracy?
Not in my book.
That’s really the only time it’s ethical to pirate. The rest is just stealing.
Stealing implies you are taking something from someone, not making a copy of it.
How could you steal something you don’t even ever own you just buy a license to play it essentially. Either way piracy is not theft in my eyes it is called piracy for a reason. You cannot claim a pirated copy of a piece of software is a lost sale.
