I have been facing a serious dilemma for the last few weeks, and seek the guidance of the MMO champ community at large. Here is the situation.
I want to play ME3 on my PC, but I will not use Origin (for a myriad of reasons unimportant to this topic). Now, the only way I can think of to do this is piracy, but I do not endorse piracy and refuse to steal. So, my question is, is it ethical for me to buy a box version of ME3, but download a cracked, Origin free version to play instead? Or should I simply wait for EA to stop being, *ahem,* dumb, and put it on Steam?
I will be the first to admit that this is a morally grey course of action, but I figure that EA/Bioware still get their money, and I get to play the game I paid for. If you agree, why? If you don't, why not?
