      People that would not buy the game that will pirate it once it is cracked vs people that could not wait and just bought instead of pirating it. The people that would wait until it is cracked would pirate it immediately if it was cracked before the 3 months but will also wait to pirate it if it is not cracked in that 3 months.

        That wouldn’t cause a loss of revenue. Which only leaves

        people that could not wait and just bought instead of pirating it

        Which was my point.

          No, you said:

          I guess that puts to rest the “I wasn’t going to buy that game anyway…” nonsense.

          My point is that there are still people that were never going to buy the game outside that 20% of lost revenue.
