I feel piracy for demo purposes is fully justified if you buy it after you like it. People always say vote with your wallet but it's more like gambling with your wallet if you don't get to see and touch the product before you make the purchase. Giving proper demos should be more common with digital media.

On a related note, I'm very glad I pirated Starfield.

I'm thinking that I might buy it once we have creation kit access and mods that add story and flesh out the game a la Fusion City Rising and companion mods for Fallout 4

At that point I'd rather pirate the game and donate to mod developers who are putting endless hours of unpaid time into free mods.
