I feel like you are just using that as an excuse. There are reviews and plenty of other methods to try out games before you buy them these days. It is not an excuse for piracy. I suspect you don't always check for a demo before you download, if you do I'd be impressed. And I'd be even more impressed if you download brand new $50 dollar games, play them, like them, then run out and buy them the next day, or delete them the second you realize it isn't a game you'd spend money on.
Not all games I buy are always $50. Quite an extensive wishlist on various websites. If there is a game I like which I have downloaded I do in fact buy it. There have been bad eggs and those were a waste of a download.
Reviews don't mean much as they used to be years ago. Duke Nukem Forever is a certain game I shall never waste time on. But as said certain games so old they're not supported by the companies so makes zero difference if I download them or not. Many of them on Steam or gog.com
