How to get every game on STEAM for free
- sushid 12y agoHighly sensational. What this amounts to is just some unethical "social hacking." While I admire the author for bringing this into light for indie developers who might otherwise be scammed, it should be up to the devs to do their due diligence or simply write it off as a cost of doing business if he doesn't bother to check their credentials. Lastly, I think we all know how much these "$30 MSRP" games cost. Just because the retail value totals to $150 doesn't mean you'll be making anything comparable to that if you try and peddle these keys online.
- austinstorm 12y agoYeah, the headline is absurd and irresponsible.
- ansible 12y agoWell, if it is any consolation, it is unlikely that the developer lost any real sales. The scammers themselves, and anyone who'd buy a Steam key under sketchy circumstances would not likely have bought a legitimate copy.
- jamon51 12y agoIt's worse than that, though. They're selling the game for half price which can harm in a couple ways. It takes away a potential sale and it also sets the market expectation that the game is only worth $15.
