Why Is The Sale Of Demo Codes Immoral?
i see what you mean. purhaps your right. like i said to blankshell, i need to keep in mind the good and bad sides. on one had, it provides a convienient way for someone who would have never gotten a code otherwise, to get a code without going through the hell that is a crowded discussion thread with people sniping codes that were given out. on the other hand, what you said.

Why Is The Sale Of Demo Codes Immoral?
i see. maybe ur right. but still, if they obtained the code for free and didnt stop any1 else from getting it for free (the seller was just lucky to obtain 1) then i think its ok to be paid for the service of giving it to someone who would have never gotten it before. 1 mans trash is another man's treasure. paid for not throwing away the trash but rather sellig it so it doesent go to waist. however, i do agree that it should be given to those interested for free. however, like i said, that leads to overcluttered reddit threads. however i do understand your point. how something that was intended to be given as free is sold by someone other than the creator. i can see why that is wrong. purhaps your right. however, i do know that the sale of demo codes has provided people who would normally never get them, with them. thats the up side. the convienient distribution of codes from someone who doesent value them, to someone that does value them. however, i do understand your point. and purhaps it is right. i guess i need to think about it thx

Why Is The Sale Of Demo Codes Immoral?
why? i see nothing wrong with it. ive never sold any but i have bought them before and dont regret it. a person recieved a demo code to a gae and doesent want it so he/she sells it to a person that does want it. i for one really wanted a demo code for smash 3ds but didnt get one due to my not being a club nintendo platinum member. so i went on ebay and bought one for 10 dollars. so did my sister and friend. i dont regret the purchase because i had a great time with the demo. i understand the argument that states "its immoral to make money off of a demo" i really do nderstand that. however, we live in a day and age where demo codes exist. and if someone who really wants one doesent get one, and a person who has no interest in it gets one, i agree that it should just be given. however, that leads to incredibly overcluttered reddit posts about giving away smash demo codes *hint hint remember that?* and i think that selling the codes provides an easy way for a person who recieved a code but didnt want it to give it to another person who does want it. and also get something in return for his/her effort. the money not only repays people who sell the codes, but gives them more insentive. if someone is willing to sell his/her code, then that means that they dont value it. and person who is willing to pay for the code, is someone who would value it. so, its a means to get something from a person who doesent value it to a person that will value it. the person who values it gets their demo code and the seller gets something out of something he/she would normally not benefit from. everyone wins. of course, this is all assuming that these sellers got the codes they are selling in an innocent way. as long as their method of obtaining the code doesent stop another person from getting the code for free, like sniping a code on a certain reddit thread that was intended to be a free thing, then flipping it on ebay. thats absolute BS. as long as it was NOT done like that, then its ok. if the seller got the code in a way that would stop another actual fan from getting a code for free, then i have a problem with it. the same problem i have with scalping of products. (most notably movie tickets and freaking amiibo) your making it harder for an actual fan to get their hands on what they want because of the scalper's own selfish desires for money. if this is the same thing with demo codes, then i agree that it is bad. however, if the way that the seller is obtaining the code DOESENT stop an actual fan from getting it for free, then im all for it. feel free to critisise my opinion. im open to other opinions. i created this topic only to better understand others so any reply would be appreciated as long as it is civil

i already played it and got that ending. i just didnt get too much of it. all i got from it was that he is the one who gave narukami, adachi, and nametame the ability to use personas and the tv world. but i did a bit of research. seems like he is named izanami. i dont know who izanami is or what they are doing here but its a step. persona 4 is my favorite game of all time because of its complexity and portrayal of jungian phylosophy and i want to understand it to its fullest.

why is persona 3's "the answer" so controversial? i for one, loved it. i really like stories that make you stop and think (not for the understanding of a plot but rather about yourself and what you learned from the story) and the answer seems to do that a lot better than most games do.

PERSONA 3 SPOILERS!!!! ---> is the seal that MC sacrificed himself to make neccessary or not? in the answer, mitsuru said that people will still have the thoughts that the seal was supposed to prevent, but yukari said that if there were no seal, then people would yearn for nyx again. what egsactly did the seal do? mitsuru and yukari's statements seem to contradict each other. i confused

j-stars victory vs+ was definetly not designed to appeal to an audience like me. it screams japan and was definetly designed to appeal to hardcore otaku. my sister is like that so she got the game. and im not gonna lie, its a pretty freaking fun game
