    Genuinely asking: if I buy a game (aka “license to play”) on steam, is it morally ok to acquire the same on the high seas? I assume The devs got paid when I paid steam?

      I’d say morally it is okay to download from high seas, if you paid for the game already. Maybe to get a cracked version of the game without Denuvo in example. Morally okay doesn’t mean legally okay. Lot of people mix those two different things up, so be careful nonetheless.
