I never stopped buying physical games. Sometimes I buy multiple copies of the same games I want to support. Any "digital only" titles I pirate them.

But I admit it's a losing fight. And when you look around to see how many people cash in their freedom for cheap convenience there's no much hope.

Good luck to the next generation. I tried.

The coping mechanism of playing video games cannot be stopped under any circumstances.  Please continue to cope with the challenging emotions ruminating throughout your body by playing video games to numb yourself.
