PC Gaming News and Discussion
Rule 1: Don't be mean
Rule 2: Keep the topic on PC Gaming.
Rule 3: No direct piracy links
Rule 4: Alternate video links are to be in a comment, below the first posted video.
This is a FMHY instanced community, you can discuss alternative ways of installing PC games, but you can't link any download material directly.
Key reselling websites hurt indie developers like us. There are many ways to obtain our games and we STILL prefer piracy over people buying from those websites.
Illegaly obtained keys are a source of money for scammers and it could even affect you as the customer in some cases.
Some developers find themselves in a situation were a few thousand keys are bought with credit cards and get charged back from the wholesaler.
Those keys are now out in the wild and they can put the hours in getting Steam to remove them one by one, but the chargeback from the original purchase are often resulting in fees.
