[Fanatical] Spotlight Bundle 6

Yeah, IndieGala has a real problem with devs deactivating keys. I'm currently in the process of activating a bunch of old IG Bundles from GroupBuys and eventhough I've barely activated a dozen bundles I already had to contact 2 devs abouts revoked / expired keys. One of them reacted admireably and issued me a replacement key within less than 12 hours but from the dev of Ziggy's Chase I haven't heard a beep eventhough I posted in the games discussion boards over 2 weeks ago. Somebody pointed out to me that he apparantly also deactivated all keys for his games from several other Bundles.

And I agree. So far I've never had any problems of the sorts at BundleStars/Fanatical but I still have a lot of unactivated keys there so here's to hoping. But I still think they hold themselves to a higher standard than IndieGala.

With Humble there have been a couple cases where they provided wrong keys (Sunless Sea) or advertised games incorrectly (Wasteland 2 Digital Deluxe Edition). Sometimes they let it be, sometimes they had to revoke keys and provide new correct ones but that's a somewhat different case in my opinion. I'm pretty sure they'd never let a scammer like Badim into their Bundles but that's rather because of the quality or lack thereof of his games :D

Yep. Was talking with someone else about this the other night, on Steam. And found that little nondescript arrow to the right of the "Activates in XXX" >
That arrow, if you click it, will open a list of all countries/regions that key will work in.
Would have been nice for Fanatical to how somewhere on the site, what that little arrow meant or did. I suppose they thought it looked more "streamlined" than the only boxes, in high contrast colors, with the words "will activate in" or "will not activate in" in the boxes. Those were not as "pretty". for sure, but were much clearer about what they were for, and what you would find if you clicked on them. Having a page show a country a key will activate in, based on IP address alone is kind of broken... so many kids use VPN's and multiple anon proxies these days, to make them appear to be halfway across the globe, from where they really are. And it's not a difficult thing to do, like it used to be 20+ years ago. Free VPN services all over the Web now.
