Quoting: GuestBut yeah it's a visual novel, you either have the patience for it or you're better of skipping this one.

The problem is, I freaking LOVE Anime, but the read, click and repeat cycle is just so monotonous.

Quoting: reaVerThis doesn't seem to be so much as a G2A problem but rather those offering their games on the platform. G2A is not responsible for illegitimate material.

That is the single stupidest thing I will probably read all week. A store is not responsible for illegal content? Paleeeease.

It's a market place, not a store. Maybe you should read before saying things...

A market place is a store, you buy things from it. They provide the platform and the service, they are responsible.

Quoting: lucifertdarkI've bought from G2A in the past but after reading this I'm no longer going anywhere near that site. Thanks for the heads-up Liam.

Glad to see you and a few others appreciate issues like this.

If I can even turn around a few people into not buying from questionable sources: Job done.

I know a few people don't agree, and that's fine too, like all editorials it's my opinion and we are free to disagree, but I consider the entire business model of G2A highly questionable as it does end up in situations like this repeating.

People can repeatedly stick up for G2A all they like, their entire business model is based on crap like this happening so they can turn a big profit. I will never, ever endorse G2A or buy from them.

Quoting: CorbenWait a sec... imho it's okay to point this issue out, but putting customers on the same level as scammers goes to far.

What's the problem of blacklisting those illegally bought keys? If they show up in a keystore, they won't work and the keystore has to deal with it. Immediately their reputation goes down and automatically no one buys anything there anymore.

Of course it would be nice of G2A if they would help tinyBuild in this issue, but it's up to them. If they don't check those keys, and they are working... why should they bother? For them it seems to be a correct key. If the key doesn't work, they have to deal with it and refund the customer.

Is it a problem to blacklist those keys? I have no idea, so I'm asking.

As far as I am concerned, I've never heard before, that G2A is selling illegal keys intentionally. And I know this store for a while now. There was a similar issue with Ubisoft's Far Cry 3, but this didn't affect only G2A as keystore. So the article should be rewritten, with a warning that this issue exists with this particular game/developer/publisher, but not accusing customers of G2A being no better than scammers in general! Let the readers judge for themselves, just from the facts.

edit: after having read tinyBuilds article, they do the same: "Make your own conclusions"

I've adjusted that one bit, the rest of the editorial stands. G2A built a business around key reselling, they know fully well this is a big repeating issue.

Key reselling would not be a big earner if it was just legit sales. I will never buy from G2A and I stand by my thoughts on them.
