I would like to point out that Brazil currently is facing a extremely hard crisis, where people can't afford even food.
Don't expect people to pay for entertainment here right now.
EDIT: why the downvotes? What I said is entirely facts, to help explain the massive amount of piracy in Brazil.
- thiagof 11y agoYou are exaggerating.
- speeder 11y agoI am? Where I live at least, and considering my personal situation, it is no exaggeration. I doubt that most of the population in a 5km radius within me can afford to buy several games, or even only one game. I know lots of people (including family members) that are having a diet almost entirely based on potatoes, because anything else is too expensive. EDIT: some hard data, freely available on IBGE site, I got that data in february, so now it might be slightly different: Average wage on last ten years rose 44%, inflation was 78%, and food prices inflation was 124%
- sdenton4 11y agoSeriously, they're on the verge of overthrowing the president because of a combination of corruption and the terrible economic situation. Overthrows are waaaay more likely to happen when there's a food shortage; I don't doubt the poster on this one.
