If devs get a percentage of the sales or want to make sequels, pirating really hurts them. It’s a massive issue with the book industry (several authors have talked about how the almost couldn’t publish their next books because the first books got pirated so much that sale numbers were down (falsely showing they weren’t popular) and they weren’t making enough money) and at the time, game devs spoke about how it was also an issue for them.
