This isn't really germane to my question, which was asking why the fact that they are "tired of piracy" is at all relevant if they're publishing on such a "bad" platform anyway.

With stuff like this it depends on how you use it (f.e. it's possible they use it up over a few months, or that after that time there is not enough liquid left to cover the vegetable mass)

There are very few Switch exclusive indie games that are good. I can't recall any , in fact. The Switch does have a lot of shovelware, but that's probably not the category of videogames you were focusing on.

It is in fact possible to be further from puritanism, because you could not be against porn. There's nothing wrong with sex and there's nothing wrong with filming it or otherwise making money off of it.

The irony here is that you are responding to someone lamenting puritanical thought with a puritanical post.

Corporations are for sure amoral. Of course, they are also incapable of forming bonds to people and thus will purely optimise for their own gain. When human beings operate like this, we call it a disorder and disparage it. Not to mention re
