4:11 begging for a free key is the lowest low and the biggest cheapskate of all time. Streamers and YouTubers earn money, so they can easily buy every game on internet.
yeah this does change things thanks for letting me know
Got it, so if it’s 2k, EA, Ubisoft, or Activision use key sites, but if it’s a small studio just buy it
I only ever bought one game from Key sites, kinguin if I’m not mistaken, it was Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, but the legacy one which didn’t sell on steam anymore since they release the garbage Special Edition that ran like ass in my old rig, so I just went and fuck it, got the good version of Skyrim, best purchase ever lmao.
Cd keys is top shelf I’m not interested in anything but getting the game as cheaply as possible 😂😂😂
Please someone tell me where the intro was from, the noise just gave me the craziest nostalgia
As someone who usually has a pretty small budget I often times just pirate games and if they were good or made by a solo dev or indie team i buy it outright when i have the money
How does isthereanydeal choose safe third party sites? Is there some sort of review board? What are their criteria?
I rly just dont care.
Personally i know key sites are not the best for devs, and i really try to avoid the shady ones, but i just can’t afford to pay full price for my games anymore. Civ VI for 60€ on steam ? When i can get it for 2.60€ and also buy food ?
Key sites are my only way to ever play these games, i wouldn’t have the opportunity otherwise, even if yes i know, it sucks for the devs, and i’m really sorry. 😢
Thanks for the video had no clue that G2a was gray market and shady. I’ll stick to the legit markets from now on.
most of my library is 3th party keys. Who gives a shit, just want my game cheaper
Guys I promise just save the 30+ dollars buying a key…. you are not effecting these trillion dollar companies I promise just like when a disc version for console is resold do the developers make money off that….. no they don’t so why are we the users not aloud to buy someone else’s game key off them? Just cause it’s digital?!?!
wait so they buy the games and the devs get the money then I buy it for cheaper, I see no issue.
I’m gonna straight pirate the shit out. There is no grey area either you buy legit or pirate, that’s it for me.
i use fanatical and eneba i wanna tap into g2a and only cuz id be getting those cheap ass steam keys don’t care if the games are shit a couple bucks
buying isnt owning
There Are NO Ethics
The reason why i play only F2P games,i will never will buy any game for money.
7:59 – where can I get this link?
how to search similar sites like humblebundle, fanatical?
Didnt know this figured they bought in bulk lol
good meme at the end
People complain about the price
When here the problem is even if you can afford it
You have no payment methods 💀
And people think you are a bad person or something
When you simply can’t get a bank account due to being so undeveloped and wartorn
This is is a *rare* scenario which is why no one recognizes it
doesn’t matter if we can get it cheaper
Genuine question. Is CDKeys legit or is it dodgy?
They never seem to have dead keys or any issues with keys being deactivated. The site directly sells and collects payments unlike G2A
Are they in the same camp as the dodgy ones or are they slightly different
I stopped with buying keys via sites years ago since switching to pc, i personally wait for steam sales just so these things wont happen. F g2a and kinguin
This is probably too late but whats the game in the background
Well, I am just poor 😢, so I buy them, but now I mostly went to buying on GOG, DRM free and cheap.
use instant gaming
Nah, imma do my own thing man
3:58 bro didnt really just refund the greates game of all time..
Is it really worth buying off key sites? It’s your own moral compass so if you decide that’s what’s right it is what it is
If you have any suggestions for any other topics surrounding the games community let me know!
That might sound douchy but i dont care where my game comes from if i can save money i will
I bought darksouls 2 on g2a for 10 bucks and i regret nothing. Idc if it was stolen. That game is not worth the 40 bucks steam wants from it.
kinda crappin on streamers asking to play your game seemed kinda poo
Why pay 30 bucks instead of 40 when you can pirate it! I have downloaded so many games this way and havent had any problems.
Wait so, if they use stolen credit cards to buy keys so that they can resell them, meaning they launder the money, it should only hurn the person who’s card was stolen, right? It’s a money laundering scheme, so how do the developers get hurt when they still need to obtain the keys through an actual seller. Also, why shouldn’t YouTubers ask for a free copy fo the game, if they have decent amount of viewers they are doing you a huge favour.
Propaganda vid
I am a game developer. I am happy that people are playing my games. If you focus on stopping people playing games, whether it be over pricing or anti pirate garbage everyone loses out. Focus on making good games and you will reap the rewards. (I have no mortgage)
I am very guilty of shopping in shady markets, I do often hesitate because of the potential harm it causes… But my evil side wins and that cool indie game I might like just is around 2 bucks… But I really need to quit this addiction.
If buying isn’t own then pirating isn’t stealing…works both ways!
When you do a search for, for example, a season pass… The top results are always these sites. I don’t want to hurt the developers but it’s unavoidable in some circumstances
Does not burden me.. As by the time any game gets removed due to possible fraud from where I purchased it, I’ve already finished the game or grew bored with it.
I never go back to a game I’ve finished.
i only buy keys from big companies like ea or ubisoft on these websites.
7:54 – Where did you get such a filter?
g2a is a scam
1:07 Ah yes because comparing USD and GBP makes total sense
Intro goes hard, but it’s only a crime if you’re convicted.
I thought they just buy them in turkey and sell them for normal polish prices
But pirating most likely won’t give me online
