Demigod developer Stardock claims that over 120,000 users have tried to play the title online since it was launched early last weekend, and only 18,000 have actually paid for it.

The game has dealt with a rough launch, started when GameStop forced the dev into releasing the digital copy before their planned launch by selling copies of Demigod days before the intended release date.

For you math majors, that's over a 5:1 ratio of pirate to actual legit owner, PC gaming has never looked so bleak.
