I would've linked website if it wouldnt get me banned. Idk, maybe i can link it in pm, not sure if there are rules against it.

Regarding outliers/variation/sample:are you saying that if i would do the same experiment i wouldnt see the same picture for other critically aclamed titles (idk, celeste, StS, etc.)?

Its just funny that pirates keep saying that they steal games to stick out to greedy companies and to punish them for making bad games. Yet when you point out that they steal good indie games just as much (or even more if you take into account overall sales of those games) all you get is insults.

Well i can't say for certain as i have not done this experiment but i'd expect results to vary quite a bit depending on things such as location (as in country etc.), website, time (results could change from year to year), quality of the game, practices of developers, and even the current world and local economy.

There are probably way more variables that I can't see right now
