Piracy rates are pretty meaningless really.  Everyone who buys a game actually plays it, while the majority of pirated software either gets played very briefly or never gets installed to begin with.
As far as prices go, PC games have only gotten more expensive if you ignore inflation, and console games are cheaper than ever.

I think what the subscription model does is shift the actual piracy to the server side, where an unauthorized third party server could potentially charge people for their pirate service.  It's happened with WoW already.
