Absolutely. I found the Visual Novel genre a few years ago. Pirate sites rip off the dev but usually offer Free. Mostly no or limited virus possibility. When I've found something I Want very much and have no money I've used a site or 2. Then I found SubscribeStar or here when I have $$ and may give it to the dev for a month or however long. I try to help devs when I can, offset their costs. My personal philosophy is there's no chance in hell I'm paying for a game if I can't even test it for free and try when it's had a few updates to see if I even like it. Who throws 5-10$ on a few lbs of asparagus if they don't know whether or not they like or might be allergic to it? If you don't like a game/AVN it's pretty stupid to waste money supporting it's creation.
