Hey folks! I've got some steam keys from humble-bundle of games I already own. Disco Elysium is one of 'em and one of the best games I've ever played. First come first serve! Tin Can and Disco Elysium are region locked. Sorry to my friends living in Turkey but you can't play it.

Edit: all gone! But you can still grab the games on steam. Support the creators, these are some great games!

Just a FYI: Humble's stance on sharing keys is that they might cancel them if they find out.

[–] BanthaFood@feddit.de 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

oh I didn't know that. Especially when they have the gifting option. But anyways how're they gonna find out. I doubt they are on here. It's still a very small niche of the internet

Theoretically they're trying to prevent people re-selling and trading, because it makes companies less willing to participate. Many of the complaints I'm aware of were people who ended up admitting they were doing this frequently and buying multiple copies for that purpose (though that doesn't mean there aren't false positives).

The "best" way to give away extra keys is to redeem the actual steam key yourself, then share that key, obfuscated in some way so a human can manage it a bot cannot. As far as we know they can't track that.

Too late for Disco Elysium :(

I grabbed SuchArt though, it looks fun. Thanks for sharing!

I grabbed Tin Can, thanks for doing this!

Steam wouldn't even allow people to claim the other games I had already bought last I remember. Pretty sure I tried sharing them on my discord group and it wouldn't work.

Hey there, Disco Elysium would be nice :^)

[–] BanthaFood@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just go ahead and claim it!

[–] CAPSLOCKFTW@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Oh, haven't realized that the links were in your post...

Thank's a lot mate! Assumed a bot would instantly grab all the keys, as usually happens on reddit, but it was still there after I checked my Steam account so I didn't already have it (Disco Elysium)

edit: sorry @CAPSLOOKFTW@feddit.de ,your comment wasn't there when I first loaded this page, it only showed up now when I reloaded it. Better luck next time.

Tin Can and Disco Elysium are region locked. Sorry to my friends living in Turkey but you can't play it

Does this mean the version sold in Turkey is censored? I don't understand why region locks exist in this age

[–] BanthaFood@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Don't know to be honest. Maybe prices since they are ahem lower ahem there and steam doesn't want people to VPN shop in Turkey ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
