You gave money to a random person instead of ZUN. You're just as bad as those who pirate the games, if not more so.
Should have bought on Steam instead.

>> No.40609063

>>40608911
Why should I be more bad if I bought a legitimate copy? You also don't know if I already bought the Games on steam.

Furthermore, half of the Games I got here are not available on steam ( ̄ー ̄

>> No.40609679

>>40609063
It doesn't matter if it's legit or not, the point still stands that you bought a copy that ZUN himself wasn't selling. What's the point of going to a con and buying the games just for that money to go to some bozos con stand? You didn't even pay full price.
Just wait for those games to come onto Steam if you really wanted them.

>> No.40609754

>>40609679
So your way to play eosd for the last 20 years was to "wait for those games to come onto Steam?"

It's also not possible for everybody to buy a copy from Team Shanghai Alice personally. For every westerner this would involve flying to Japan, visiting and navigating a con without being able to speak the native language and then getting one of the most requested games there.
The person I got the games from, bought them from Zun and thus he got his money, stupid

If you can't even be assed to go to Comiket/Reitaisai or stores where they sell the games officially I don't even know how you can call yourself a fan.
Also secondhand stores don't give the money to the creator of the item, how the fuck do you think that works? Either way the funds still don't reach him. You're paying for the guy to keep running the store.

Aside from that I'm still supporting them through e.g. buying merchandise

Also, you can't expect anyone to be able to just go to Japan, idk if you know it, but the majority of the world population can't just spontaneously buy a flight to another continentas well as hotel, etc.

dont listen to this retard. if the developers of these games cared to begin with, they would put their shit on more readily available platforms to start. The fact that someone with a fandom as huge as zun's, he has no excuse to not put the rest of the games on platforms like steam/gog/etcetc, and if he wants to cry about a lost sale of a game that he hasn't made the effort to make more available, he can go fuck himself, til then im going to keep buying used or pirate.

I couldn't give a fuck if you pirate games, but buying shit second hand is pathetic and should always be mocked. I'd have more respect for someone who printed out their own copies of the box art.

The order of legitimacy goes: Buying official > piracy > buying second hand. It is never acceptable to buy data second hand for any reason, and this also applies to modern concepts like clone consoles and buying gameboy roms to play on your switch.

I am unsure if I should visit cons again, there are just so many obnoxious people there. Only thing I really did was karaoke. There is nothing quite like singing cgdct op/ed and Touhou songs in front of a lot of normies. Amazing feeling of freedom for me. And then there is also hope to find something amazing like you with the game cds. I think I haven't seen even one Touhou related thing at the cons I went to (they were smaller, 1 day cons). I have met a Touhou fan though.

You act so highly and cool because you bought these games second hand but ultimately it's no different than pirating it, except you lost 20 euro for old CDs that may or may not even work. You feeling super special because you own these worthless piece of plastic means nothing. You never was in Japan, you never was on Reitaisai, you never stand next to ZUN and did not personally bought these games from him. You just gave 20 euro to some dumb bitch on some shitty local con in some shithole.

There is no meaningful discussion to be had on this board except when new games release. I can't think of any other fanbase that whines about secondary fans existing, but then chastises potential primaries solely due to their method of acquiring the media in question.
