>paying russians and brs for stolen games
Actually worse than buyfags

Pirating is more ethical than g2a

Usually, but most multiplayer games won't work cracked anyways

Only scumbags and degenerates deal with G2A

Had to buy Lost Planet 2 from there because steam blocked it in my region for some dumb reason. And that reason is
>GFWL

there's literally nothing wrong with g2a

Just buy from CDKeys retard

Ok CDkeys representative

Yeah aside from them stealing your credit card info

>compares prices
>g2a is way better
no thanks

>Credit card gets stolen
>oh no I have to call discover and say it was fraudulent charges
>Don't lose any money
Win win

Just saw an indie dev crying about g2a. He said Google brings them up first when you search his game but he gets no money from a g2a sale.

Well duh, its a reseller. Someone already bought the keys and he got paid for that

Which indie dev?

actually this, this is why i made this thread lmao

By not literally stealing keys/games. Piracy is unironically more ethical than buying from G2A, and many indie devs have said as much.

>Steals credit card info
>sells keys bought with stolen credit cards and the keys can get revoked

just pirate, stop funding russians and chinks with stolen keys

some fucking nobody, worked for the guys who made hello neighbor lmao

false, you actually have the game added to the library like you bought it full price. Multiplayer games would work, updates are automatic etc

Dev of the mountain bike game Descenders. Its pretty fun

Anyone who complains about key sites are a cuck.
>Wah somehow they got ahold of my game and I don't get any money!
They didn't get it with magic. They probably got it in a shitty humble bundle. Devolver digital makes me want to buy all their games from g2a

Apparently the discussion on twitter is that the keys are bought with stolen ccs and money is eventually refunded so they get nothing.

this, these indie devs love to make games worth 5 bucks sell at 25$

> More ethical
Did you even read my reply? Buying from G2A literally costs indies money since when the stolen credit cards start getting chargebacks, it comes out of the indies' wallets. Piracy is not stealing, but buying from G2A is because devs literally lose money on it. Thus, piracy is more ethical than buying from G2A

>implying i would even buy indie garbage
cute

I use G2A rarely, but it feels like Russian Roulette.

just use allkeys and the site they relocate to, usualy gamivo or g2a. I can get preorders that cost 60 on steam for 40

G2A can not exist without the stores, so it is about as much competition as a flea has with the dog it clings to.

except for all the criminal money that is laundered on it and all the fraud it contently profits from, sure.

It's safer and more ethical to pirate your shit than buy from the single dirtiest online marketplace

>I have to call discover
????

>beiung dumb enough to use a cc on g2a
>being retarded enough to buy from untrust worthy sellers on g2a
Loving every laugh

Entry level credit card they give to kids
