Please don't answer if you are not sure, I am interesting in buying the game, but it's not really cheap, so I searched for a cheaper version, but almost all other retailers sell keys just for that Social Club thing or whatever it's called.

I see that G2A sells Steam Gifts, but it doesn't worth the risk.

If I want the game on Steam, I need to buy it directly from Steam?

Selling Steam gifts is against Steam ToS and you account may get locked if you buy a gift like that, in case seller got caught.

Shady site? Well if you buy from stores with 0 feedback that were just launched of course you will get problems. I always buy from high ranking sellers.

Nuuvem doesn't say anything about Steam. It's for that Rockstar Platform.

I bought GTA5 on Steam because I'm 100% sure you can't activate keys from other sources.

Aren't you forced to have a Rockstar Social Account to play the game? I know that I needed one for Max Payne 3.

When you launch GTA5 from Steam, Rockstar Social Club will launch asking for an account.

The only way to get a Steam version of GTA V is by buying on Steam. Every other authorized sellers (so, definitely not G2A) are selling Social Club keys, unfortunately.

He probably had a good line on a pre-order price, but once his pile was sold through, it stopped be profitable.

Buying directly from Steam is usually the best option. Why wouldn't you? 0% chance of getting scammed, no shady business, devs get the money to make more games, the ability to pre-load (in the case of pre-orders), etc.

I'd also include any of the major retailers that sell Steam keys, i.e. Gamersgate, Amazon, Newegg, etc. But I'd avoid the shady resellers no matter what for any large purchase.

Edit: Nevermind. Apparently, Rockstar decided that all non-Steam versions would just be codes through their own Social Club DRM. Christ, I hate it when publishers do that.

No, you can buy games at authorized retailers, like HB, GMG, GG... You can try some of unauthorized ones but as always there is risk. Also some of them offer guarantee safeguard....
But I don't know why are you hoping to get just released game for cheap... ?

The only steam version available is from steam store. Any steam gift of the game that you found is a risk. It's possible to be a real deal, maybe from a RU steam store or something like that. But i gifts are becoming a little too risky. I bought mine from retail, non-steam. Enough for me, and i am a guy who likes to have all in my steam library. But i am also a guy from ps3, that played always from rockstar social club, so.

But always be aware of steam gifts from retailers.

you can buy it on several sites for Social Club. And if you have a physical copy of the game, you have to activate it on Social Club too

You could always try GameKeysNow.com for keys, but the version they're currently selling uses Rockstar instead of Steam.
