    I don’t even bother with games since steam has better service but this fitgirl is a giga 🇹🇩

    I dont buy on steam though either grey market keys or code on gamestop. Got to break up these monopolies somehow lol

    These corpos got a union to fight her so she must be doing something right.

    Remember folks, corpos are not people and they are inherently a threat actor to anyone who is working or buying. Treat them as such.

      I remember at least one indie dev saying that they would prefer you pirate the game instead of using key resellers as they tend to cost the devs lots of time and money dealing with credit card fraud.

        If I am buying grey market, I don’t give two fucks about what the dev thinks.

        If i respected their capitalist operation I would buy the code from gamestop.

        But yes, you are making a valid point. If you respect the dev, pay them!
