You do know that developers don't aren't paid based on the number of sales, right? Unless they're independent, a published developer is usually paid a set amount before a game is even released. They may get a few incentives for having a certain number and it can help out their relationship with the publisher in the long term if they manage to make more sales but for the most part, they don't see much of the money from sales. You know who actually gets all of that money? The publishers. So saying that used games harm developers is bull.
