A tweet from Shams Jorjani outlines Paradox's approach to dealing with piracy of Cities: Skylines involves providing better customer support, saying: "As usual our plan for pirates is to make a great game even better through free updates - making it more convenient to use Steam instead." He goes on to explain: "It's all about offering the superior service. That's how we bring down piracy. By making the paid experience a superior one." Thanks DSOGaming.
