Thx, man :). Wait I didn't even know Surge is free, is it still? Is there a topic? Does Focus need any kind of subscription like some other things I've heard of, though I might be mixing this up .

.... Deals forum (THIS forum) and it is named 'Buy one, get The Surge free (until 4th of October)' ...
https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/hPv37/buy-one-get-the-surge-free-until-4th-of-october

No subscription required ... just make an account ... KEEP store in US region ... when asked for address just do a Google Maps search for something in New York. Recommended to pay via PayPal, once you do it can take up to 45 minutes to get email that directs you to the Steam keys.

Thank you so so much!!! πŸ˜„
πŸ’“ Especially for the US store tip, prices must be cheaper there. I'm for EU, and Fanatical e.g forces me to my region. I used to be able to use a VPN to change to US but now they blocked them all.

Gray market, possibly. It's super cheap on those sites, just like Bulletstorm Full Clip Edition. I don't know why some unbundled games are so inexpensive on G2A and the likes, but yeah... some users definitely grab those to get full cv.

Mostly because bought with stolen credit cards or some other shady stuff.
They want to sell the keys fast before they get revoked and the card blocked.

Yeah I saw the reseller sites have the game really cheap so I assumed it was part of a bundle somewhere.

Comment has been collapsed.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. Still, in Cat Quest 2's case, I thought that maybe there were also some curator keys in the lot. Some curators definitely trade/sell keys they've obtained from developers.

Ah, just saw that Bulletstorm now gives reduced cv, that's a good thing.

Comment has been collapsed.

Oh, sorry, i forgot the curation keys.

Yes, it give a good bunch of crap curations that sell keys and that throw a bad light on all curations mine too in the end :o(.
Someone should report them to the devs (i don't have time for that).

And yes, Bulletstorm is since many month reduced cv. I reported it with a lot of links to cheap offers for around 1-2€ (but 40cv before).
Some "generous gifters" have lost in one go 200-300cv^^ and some a level or two too.

At least, the Valve people made an attempt to prevent the trading/reselling of curator keys when they rolled out Curator Connect. It might not have fixed the issue entirely but I would guess that it helped reducing the number of keys being traded/sold. If I were a dev and a Steam curator reached out to me to get free keys instead of using Curator Connect, that would certainly raise red flags in my mind.

Some "generous gifters" have lost in one go 200-300cv^^ and some a level or two too.

I'm actually a bit surprised that we didn't see any "why did I lose cv/levels" thread in the past months. O_o Not that I miss those threads, mind you.

The most devs give keys instead curation copies AND different curations sell this curation copies too (i know at least 3 that do it -and from all of them are the owner on sg active [with the same "gifting behavior"]).
The Buyers get then a invite into that group, get promoted to moderators and can then take the copy of the bought game.
Shady and ugly.... but till now have steam not done something after my reports of that stuff.
And sg didn't too (of course i reported it...) [but to be fair its a difficult thing for sg]

I'm actually a bit surprised that we didn't see any "why did I lose cv/levels" thread in the past months. O_o Not that I miss those threads, mind you.

Mostly because it hit nearly only the high level, cv system abusing/exploiting, users and they don't want to come into the spotlight + know it will bring nothing and because not so much add game tickets got solved the last 8-12 weeks because the active staff members concentrated more on the User Report tickets.

Because i posted it today in our discord, i have direct the right stuff for you to it :-D (Nice coincidence)

Hang on. Am I understanding this correctly? A "shady" curator could just add a buyer to their group and gift them a game received through Curator Connect? If that's the case... well... damn. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that shady people found a way to bypass that system, but... yeah, I'm still surprised. O_o

Well, yeah... I guess you're right here. Those who keep farming cv that way certainly know that they shouldn't be getting full cv. Although I do disagree with you saying that this would not bring anything... I mean, it could bring them a few blacklists. :3

I always forget about Discord... >.<

He can give him the rights to take it, as he would be one of the curation review writers.

I am surprised that people buy/trade when they know they get their game/key that way.
But i learned from it that the price are for a good bunch of people the only "interesting point".
That they fuck themself on the long run with it don't understand a good bunch of them...

(+) know it will bring nothing

You misunderstood my sentence/meaning of it.
I wanted to say with it that the, higher level, cv abusers/exploiters know it would bring nothing to cry about "but i had before level X" or similiar threads.

Oh no, there was no misunderstanding on my part. I totally got what you were saying, my reply was just an attempt at being cheeky, sarcastic. I guess it didn't work. I know they wouldn't gain anything by whining on the forum and they know it... except that doing so would possibly get them blacklisted, hence my reply (i.e. the only thing to gain would be blacklists).

Sarcasm is mostly bad transported online.
I know that problem very well because i am often sarcastic and use irony.
Online, at least in a different language/with not native speakers, a bad idea special on sg :-D

A bunch of blacklists don't change much.
Hundreds of them maybe a bit.
And that will not happen because they are """"generous"""". No problem to be that, when you don't pay for your GA's
