I'll assume you're asking me since I don't think Puki has any games for sale at the moment.
If I hadn't explicitly given them permission to do so? Hell yes, I'd mind. That's exactly what I'm talking about with grey areas. Once you find a level between white and black, well it's all shades of grey, isn't it? I'll pay tomorrow, I'll pay when I get a chance to go into town, I'll pay on payday, I'll pay when I have some spare cash, I'll pay when I've confirmed the game's worth buying. I fundamentally fail to see why people think that intangible goods such as music, software, movies, etc where you're buying an IP license rather than the media should be treated differently from other goods. You think the local BMW dealership is gonna let me drive away with a new car with no more than a "I'll come back and pay tomorrow"? Neither do I.
Of course, its a moot point, since all my games have play-before-you-pay versions, thus I specifically give people permission to play before they pay, but I do so by my choice and on my terms. Bethesda do not.
