To be honest, that's what I meant with Humble. I knew they got legitimate keys from the developers and didn't think of the correct noun.

But since the studio was shut down by 2K, they are most likely the one's footing the bill if a chargeback occurs. For indie games or small studios, I never use these sites for that reason.

Plus I'm still in the process of setting up my pirated games infrastructure. I will first need to figure out how to properly store Windows-only games such that the WINE prefix is in the game folder and automatically applied as well as how to make "cloud" saves work.
