No More Pirated Versions!

[Quasidivine]

So I have a question for the community and at large it is directed at the makers of the RPGMAKER game engines. As we all know there was a time when RPGMaker was not available and through uncertain channels somehow we got a copy anyway. Some of us spent years waiting until a legit copy came out and naturally bought it because it was finally available. My question is, for those who wanted to go legit, why does the company not put out a patch. It could even be for sale at a high price, in order to make up any supposed losses for the company? In this fashion we could unite the community and breath new life into the engine as a whole! If we are going to have a yearly anniversary featuring old engines, why not make it even more relevant? Please understand I want to rid the world of the pirated versions and bring forth a time of peace for all fans of the engine.

I'm confused, what is that patch supposed to do?

1. very few if any are going to buy an over priced version to make up for piracy , especially a 21 year old engine very very few are even using anymore 2. what would said patch do? prevent piracy ? simply wont happen and cant be done. even denuvo , one of the hardest to crack piracy protectors out there still gets cracked 3. even if the engine was on sale for ever at 1.99 its still going to get pirated, simple as that
