If you buy it legally the publisher might decide one day to take it away from you and you have absolutely no rights to stop them because you don’t own shit.
If you pirate the game then it’s yours to keep for as long as you want. Plus you get the added benefit of none of the draconian DRM that serves no purpose other than to punish people that buy the games legitimately.
Just to clarify that I only support pirating games when they have been removed from store fronts and there is no possible way to support the developer even if you wanted to.

If you bought it once you should be legally allowed to pirate it. That is just common sense.
You also have to somehow safely backup your pirates games. Otherwise they are gone as well some day.
