That's very kind and generous of you. I think I only meet the first requirement, but I'm not really interested in the game anyway-- just wanted to leave a bump so that other people can see the thread more easily :)

Good luck to everyone entering!

Aww, thanks! I really like it myself too. You can see the original in the view image thingy below. I personally edited it a bit to make it brighter, I like it more this way. Also, you should check out the person who actually made it's deviantart page (I don't actually know them, just know their deviantart page and know that the art on it is great).

Well that and a majority of your giveaways are invite/group only, and most having 0-5 winners, why if i may ask not set it open to a larger group?

The group gibs that haven't got enough entries are all touhou giveaways gibs. There's a point system there. You need to make gibs and earn touhou points by making gibs (and having entries). You need the touhou points to join other gibs in the group. Most of the people have (pretty) high standards on what games they join due to it costing their points, so it's hard to get the 5 entries. I still make them for touhou, simply because I just want the points so I can join other touhou gibs. The chances of winning touhou gibs are just great (especially because it sometimes even happens that I'm the only entry D:).

As for invite only gibs, those are either forum gibs or gibs for the (unofficial) SG Discord group. It's a very nice little community and the people are very nice, so I like making gibs for them :3

It is a new 2K lock and they have the same thing for Civ VI :/.

It is not a true EU lock per se, since it locks out countries from activating the game rather than lock in, which typically happens with these keys. Not sure why 2K feels the need to do this nonsense since keys generated for NA are completely RoW and don't have any restrictions whatsoever.

Aww that's awful! It's so unnecessary putting that restriction on the keys.

But yeah I looked back at the webpage and it lists the countries it doesn't activate in and it just seems they just don't want UK giving to US and vice versa xD Very strange! ::

It's so EU people don't buy their higher priced keys and make profits...?

Kinda yes. The locks are as follows:

  • India - Activation and Run locked
  • Brazil (Not Latam but just Brazil) - Activation and Run locked
  • RU + CIS - Activation and Run locked
  • SEA + China + Hong Kong + Sri Lanka + Macau + Taiwan + Cambodia + Laos + Brunei - Activation and Run locked

^ Those are all locked in (so can only be activated within these countries). The Europe (though it looks more like EMEA when going through the countries) key prevents the following countries from activating the game, but there is no run lock on this key.

Cannot be activated within the "Asia/Pacific Region" which is as follows:

  • Their SEA lock
  • LATAM (including Brazil)
  • Canada/US + Autralia/New Zealand (grouping these together since Deep Silver does so as well under their NA lock)
  • Japan/S. Korea
  • North Korea
  • Random countries that make no sense: Maldives, Timor-Leste, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar (Burma), Mongolia, Nepal, and Pakistan.
  • Random territories: Cocos (Keeling) Islands (Part of Australia), British Indian Ocean Territory (UK), Falkland Islands (UK), French Guiana (France) and Christmas Island (Australia)

Those who are listed in the lock above and are not within the region locks will be granted a full RoW key.

Fun fact: India is allowed to use the above key. Good luck trying to figure out if you get an India only key, a Row key or a EMEA key when buying from a 3rd party store.

Honestly, someone at 2K must have wanted to fuck with our heads when making the EMEA lock because why the fuck would you feel the need to list not only random territories that would otherwise be fine, but also include countries like Bhutan and Maldives?

This appears to be the new norm since Civ VI also has these fucking locks but it appears that stores are provided both this fucking mess and proper RoW keys for those not listed. Just use a VPN when buying it since not only would it be cheaper (no VAT) but you get a proper RoW key instead of whatever the fuck 2K thinks this is.

Region locks and publisher/dev bullshit annoy me

Wait, you mean this Mafia III key is redeemable and therefore accessible in India? That's pretty interesting, I'm in India myself and though I don't care for the sequel (Mafia I and II best Mafia games) I could gift it to a fellow friend here, since this particular key seems to be going for a cheaper price.

Yes.

The cheap copies on the grey market are from a ASUS promo, but since the keys are locked and the game didn't live up to the hype, they are going for a stupid price considering the game just launched.

Niice, thanks for the heads-up. The current price seems to be around 11-14$ so I'd say it's a pretty decent discount, but like you said the game didn't live up to the hype. Think I'll pass on this for my personal library :| (Really wanted it to be a good game)
