I get where you’re coming from and I agree the job security for Devs and the financing of games is fucked. It’s still disingenuous to claim that pirating the game has the same impact as buying.

Bad game? Fired. Good game? Also fired. Popular game that people loved? Believe it or not, also fired.

Plenty of singleplayer games are from indies, those more or less support the developer.

Just saying, indie devs just dont have the money and time to use denuvo

And you don’t need to wait for indie games, though you might need to be patient about early access quality. But, as long as the dev(s) stick with it, even that can be satisfying to see the game improve from a janky boilerplate mess to wherever it is really headed.
