    On the other hand, devs who promote pirating their work are the kind of people I do want to give money to.

      You should read about the situation that prompted them to say that. Their work has basically been stolen from them, and if you do buy it, the people who made the game won’t see a dime.

      You’re better off pirating it and sending them money on Patreon or something.
