Is the warranty forfeited if I use pirated game discs that I did not know were pirated at the time of purchase? Am I obligated to seek forgiveness from all the producing companies or to compensate them? What should I do if I find three companies producing one game from which I have not absolved myself?

The ruling on copied discs is the same as the ruling on photocopied books. Regarding the issue of three companies producing the same game, if they share a single management, then seeking absolution from one of them is sufficient. Otherwise, each company retains its independent rights.
