Shack: On the issues of patches, in your blog you mentioned that a lot of the support requests deal with issues that Ritual has in fact already fixed in patches. I would assume that this means the ratio of pirate support requests to legitimate support requests is rising over time. Is this the case?
Mike Russell: Yes. At first, it was about one to one, and over the last couple of weeks it's gone up to five to one.
Mike Russell: I've been in this industry for seven years, and I've seen the effects of piracy. I've seen studios close as the result of it, I've seen people lose their homes. I guess I'm more vocal than a lot of people because I've seen the personal side of it, and it's just sad that we have so many people looking for a way of justifying it.
