thanks for it
I wanted to create a Nightgale giveway, but the game doesn't appear so I can make the giveway on sg (what do i do?).
Comment has been collapsed.
Nightingale is there, but it's two stars (since June 2, when this Intel deal started).
If you still want to do a giveaway and you're not finding it by name, you can use the App ID (1928980).

I got a master key couple weeks ago but didn't bother looking into it at the time. But after seeing this post today, entered the code and was able to redeem Warhammer III. AC Mirage and Remnant seem to be out of stock with a lock icon.

AC Mirage and Remnant wasn't out of stock, it was just your birthday date verification (these games are 18+)

I just noticed i have the MASTER KEY mail!!! Thanks!
Total Warhammer III is a Steam key (i fear it was for EGS since when you check de REQs it send you to the EGS Store page) but it was for STEAM XD

Thanks! I didn't notice I already had the Master Key in my emails :D

I'm curious, it can twice Master Keys used on the same account?
Got one and choose Warhammer but got second is from my ex-girlfriend (she is not PC gamer).
And... AC Mirage is not Steam key?

Games that require extra app don't usually have steam activation keys, like ubisoft and many EA games

did you ever find out the answer about master keys?

Yes, you can use on the same account. I had tested and worked.

Thanks for the help. It does indeed work. I have another master key from another account that was created using my old SIM card (which can't be used anymore so can't login that account). Good to know it's not going to waste. Cheers mate.

Very welcome, i'm happy to help :) so don't waste with more SIM cards (for second / third example) 😉

Strangely, I was registered there before, but never received the email with the master key - even though I do get their regular spam newsletters, including a new one just today. I wonder if there’s still a chance they’ll send it after all. I’d really like to get Warhammer. :)

Another reddit user on the IndianGaming post has a screenshot that also shows bonus content for: Arcadegeddon, FragPunk, Marvel Rivals, War Thunder, and Zenless Zone Zero. You can redeem all the bonus content; not restricted to only picking one choice.
If someone can tell me what is the bonus content for War Thunder I will thank you for that.

For those who wanna get Nightingale.
Yes the game looks good and it was fun playing it (around the launch), but I have the feeling it won't get support much longer.
They messed up their launch mit an unready game.
I was stuck in the tutorial/intro because a portal wouldn't open, no way to progress and each new character had the same issue.
While I was looking for a resolve I saw a lot of small and somewhat bigger streamers had this problem too.
The problem is resolved now, but it took them a few days, which cost them a lot of players.
Back then there was no offline mode too.
Now there is one, but I haven't tested it yet.
With still dropping player numbers which where just a bit above 200 average for the last 30 days, I can't see the Devs supporting this game much longer.

I was going to redeem that one but went for AC Mirage since many reviews were complaining about the game and also it seems like the game could be a Humble Bundle material in the future.

Same, someone here said that it takes 2-8 days so I guess we still have to wait... not sure about this though, giving away such games for free for EVERYONE is a bit weird lol.

Whoops. That'll teach me! I had an account years ago, but for some reason the emails aren't very prominent to me, and it appears they don't do this often.
But now I think I'm screwed. I ended up with Nightingale, because evidently out of the list there were 3 options I had on the download section apart from the Ubi+ thing. 2 of them were locked. I ended up having to use Nightingale. I wanted AC Mirage. Interestingly, when I actually clicked the bundle thing itself after this procedure, and was able to click the Mirage button within the bundle page, and that page says that I actually used up a download. Disappointing.
Now I'm very concerned because of how poorly explained the event works as I could only use what's offered to me, not what was teased. So I had no choice in the matter. I see people in the Reddit pages say to "wait", but this isn't reassuring. I would think that if they splashing the bundle of games on my download page, I should've been given all of them instead of being unfairly duped.
Comment has been collapsed.
The locks are because they're mature rated games so they do an age check. It's been noted by other people in the thread. I get how it could be confusing though, should probably just remove the lock icon and keep the age verification.

The worst part was it wasn't clickable in the first place on the page I was taken to after entering the code. Found out the hard way after all this.

The email literally said "Select 1 of the Featured game titles to download along with any of the titles in the Bonus section."
Like what more detailed can it be?
But what really hits the spot is " I should've been given all of them instead of being unfairly duped".
This is the kind of mentality why we can't have nice things cause people for some reason think they deserve everything.

So, when 3 games pop up on the screen but only 1 of them was available to me, is that a real selection?
It said nothing about why there was a lock icon on the 2 games, and didn't explain at all what it was for or what to do about it. Not very detailed.

Are we not on a giveaway site for free games? And talking about a giveaway in particular that is supposed to guarantee you a game, and not only that, one by choice that they're offering as they implied? I said that for the trouble this caused because of how poorly this thing was run, it was deserving to recify the situation to people for the way things happened, and that's also not the only issue that was brought up with this event.
Comment has been collapsed.
You're not in the right here., not sure why you'd think you would be. It's already nice of intel to give these games away. Even if it was locked up you still would've had 3 choices. You not looking into why there's a lock on 2 of the games and insta locking a game isn't their fault. Them having an age filter isn't their fault either.
"The trouble this caused because of how poorly this thing was run"? This was a free promotion and despite the troubles you already claimed a free game. For how much trouble this was? You make it sound like you climbed Everest and carried a Sherpa on each arm. This was as simple as it gets, get a code, redeem it and claim a game. How poorly it was run? What in the actual f are you talking about?
For your impatience and ability to google they should now give you all games? Why stop there, why not ask to become the ceo of intel and then the president, and then some extra terrestrial god planet eater to make sure you got it all under control?

Poor UX and instructions for one do not make it the legit giveaway as advertised.

You fundamentally do not comprehend the situation. The giveaway presented a small batch of games, implying these are the ones to choose. It explains nothing else about it. I could not click on the images for the locked games for that matter. I could only click on the one that didn't have one. Selection by force..
Just because I ended up with one, that does not mean I was done fairly according to the email. Intel botched it by design. It was not "as simple as it gets". Had I actually got the game I wanted, I wouldn't be here.

Nope. It was not as simple as "claim a game, get your code". One of the instructions said you can choose. There's a whole dynamic to that. The giveaway presented me with 3 games. All the implication was there that I could choose any of the three. Ultimately I wasn't given access to what I wanted through a technical limitation that was not my responsibility.

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. That is not what happened at all.
I actually did look into it at the time of writing in the time that i could, so you've been foolish from the dstart with that assumption, and know even less about what I've seen. I personally don't care much for reddit threads, part of it for reputation and part of it that they don't have all the right info. But when i did look into it anyway, the parts that did try to have info was purely speculative and tentative. Not one person was from either Intel or Ubisoft at the time. That's not something that explains anything at all. Did they say that to get past the age gate, you actually had to go click the giveaway thing that was on a DIFFERENT tab instead of the games directly that were on the downloads tab? Absolutely NOT! Some only mentioned an age gate, but no context.
I never unlocked anything until AFTER the fact. No keys were expired. That was NOT the problem. Key to the giveaway was entered, giveaway opened. Only 2 games within it had an unexplained lock. Those two games were unclickable themselves with no explanation about how to get past that. If you're gonna try to fault me for "being in a rush", I've come to experience a thing known as "first come first served". I don't have all that luxury, so you're not in the right for that mentality. At this point, I got the email for this thing WEEKS ago and I hadn't known it existed until this thread. So excuse you for my anxiety at this point. Do better.

I only found out how, by myself, after all that. NOT ONE PERSON mentioned how to get there! So merely mentioning something like that is not enough relevancy to go on. A lock icon could mean many other things, so this does NOT begin to explain its purpose at that point unless the official source had provided that info relevant to the giveaway. That was on Intel.
The point was not about whether I should be "happy" that I got a game. It's about integrity and doing right by people when Intel dropped the ball. I shouldn't even begin to be looking into sketchy sites even riddled with trolls to think I have a chance. Don't be condescending.

Before you saw what it was, you redeemed a game, then went to look into why it was locked. Sure intel could have added a text message there, but it's not just on them, because you still chose to redeem something, then complain later that you should've gotten all the games or intel should do something for you at this point.
If you didn't want nightingale that bad, don't take it. Leave it for someone who wants it you know what I mean. At least you got something even if it's just for collection standards. Take me, I never got my e-mail despite having an acc with them as old as my steam account. I'd take nightingale if that's all they give me, I ain't gonna be like damn they should give me all games and a cpu and a cow and 3 sheeps cause I was a intel member in 2012.
Of course I look down on your pov. On top of already taking something you are greedy and want more for no reason. You willingly used your 1 game quota as described. You could've e-mailed them see what's going on, yet you chose not to. They dropped no ball, they did you a favor, you ended up with a free game when obviously you don't seem to even want it. You don't deserve more because Intel doesn't almost beg you take it, nor are you morally entitled to more, in fact in your case you're morally wrong, so relax.
Calling "reddit" or "sg" a sketchy site is also very low iq. Whatever you associate with sketchy is also randomized it seems based on how you feel at the moment. Easy to be part of the Hentai steam group but call reddit sketchy because you have to read words there and that shit's scary.

You are way, WAY off! Very ignorant.
It's nothing to do with linking my age itself. I don't even know whether that was a part of it, but that was besides the point. The issue is that by default, I could not click the locked items at all. It does nothing. Zero access No age gate. No game page. Unresponsive UX. The only thing that was valid there was the game that did not have the lock icon on it. NONE of this has to do with me. None of this was my responsibility.

You really gotta stop jumping to conclusions as you don't even know the half of what you're talking about. In the first place, no one said anything about whether they couldn't try to claim it like my problem was. Most of their problems were far different from mine. So I can tell you for sure that at the time of writing and when I participated, this info was never available to me and I had to find out the hard way before you tried to accuse me of something I had NO CONTROL over.
Exactly a lock could mean many things, like an age filter, or out of stock, or not available in your region. Before you saw what it was, you redeemed a game, then went to look into why it was locked.
And did you even try to explain the phenomenon I was facing, or did you immediately come to assume and accuse me of not looking for the info? Like so far you have no idea what I dealt with. There was no info that you're trying to claim exists, so how in the hell could I just magically get an answer for it? Out of thin air? Do you think I'm some sort of magician? You know that one of the major problems with AC Mirage wasn't even the age gate issue, but that there were key issues? Not at all the info I was looking for, not at all what I experienced. So how can that even explain anything? Be real.
Sure intel could have added a text message there, but it's not just on them...
They absolutely should have and besides that the fact the system was incompatible with the instructions, no that's not on me. That's on them. They designed this giveaway system, and the circumstances as such are rigged against your desires. Don't gaslight me by saying I should be grateful to claim a game and to have it.

You shouldn't be able to click locked games, because they are locked. That's usually what a lock does, prevents access. Wow, good boy you figured that out!
Your account and how you manage it IS YOUR responsibility. Intel gives you the right to make you an account ,they're not your personal maids. Everything had to do with you. You could say they could've been clearer, but you did absolutely nothing to help your case and blame them wholly. You are about 95% responsible in this situation however. Them for not having the best ui, I'll make them 5% responsible.

https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/1le1yz3/free_games_being_offered_by_intel_gaming_access/
It's also in the sg thread slightly above your comment.
8 days ago someone made this reply to someone:
https://www.reddit.com/r/IndianGaming/comments/1l8r4qf/comment/mx7c2zv/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1
7 year old thread with different games where someone pointed this exact same thing out:
https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/a5d7ib/comment/eblvs5r/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1
I get it, you have a hard time with google, but if you google "intel game advantage giveaway locked game site:www.reddit.com", they will all show up.
PS: You also claimed that you couldn't click it but I don't believe you ever tried as that was exactly what you had to do apparently. It's possible your adblocker trolled you as well. Again, I don't even got my e-mail yet and I can find this info.
I also don't know how their age verification thing works, as the 99.99% of people never had your problem. So likely like everyone else you had a chance for an age verification screen and you skipped it by just pressing enter, and they are usually set on todays date, so you weren't old enough. Someone who did the age verification can confirm maybe what the screen looks like. Went right now to check account settings and there's no age related setting in the intel dashboard settings. So you were likely asked on that page or when you did your account verification and you skipped it.
"And did you even try to explain the phenomenon I was facing, or did you immediately come to assume and accuse me of not looking for the info? Like so far you have no idea what I dealt with. There was no info that you're trying to claim exists, so how in the hell could I just magically get an answer for it? Out of thin air? Do you think I'm some sort of magician?

So how can that even explain anything? Be real."This "phenomenon" you faced seems to be you skipping the age verification like you do on steam and they send you back to the main page for instance. Regardless if you did it before those other few people on reddit or this sg thread had the same issue as you, you could've e-mailed support, and you still chose not to.
"They absolutely should have and besides that the fact the system was incompatible with the instructions, no that's not on me. That's on them. They designed this giveaway system, and the circumstances as such are rigged against your desires. Don't gaslight me by saying I should be grateful to claim a game and to have it. That's not the point!"I want to know where this age verification screen shows up on, because however you skipped it, thousands others didn't and they successfully got the game. You somehow failed this. That's not the point, the point is you still took a game, and now you want more when you were only entitled to 1. If you didn't understand why they're locked, why not message them? I'm also going to assume you already redeemed and revealed your key, when maybe you could've made a ticket and asked for a swap. I understand your frustration that due to some technicality on your part and due to unclear communication by them you believed you weren't able to claim either of the other games, but I don't understand where you think you're entitled to more games.
You said "I would think that if they splashing the bundle of games on my download page, I should've been given all of them instead of being unfairly duped." You believe that just because there were 3 or 5 options, given the choice of 1, you should still be entitled to all 3 or 5 options. It's like that tv show where they open door 1 2 or 3, but instead whichever door they open they should just get all prizes because there were multiple options. Doesn't make no damn sense.
"You being condescending is never a good look, and an actual joke to even announce considering you're on a giveaway site. Which, speaking of that..."Did I ever say I was trying to impress you or get on your good side? Did I ever say I cared how you viewed me? You seem to have me misunderstood.
"That isn't it chief. Even at that, nothing they discussed was even close to what I was looking for anyway. They could be talking about Mickey Mouse. What the hell does that have to do with what I'm trying to do? It's not about "words". WTF are you even blabbering about? You have no idea what you're saying."Regardless you referred to those sites as being sketchy. Because you would've had to use them at all. Who's being condescending and a hypocrite now? I guess you. Circle of life right?
PS: Seems all you had to do is click the locked game and verify. Maybe someone else can confirm.

Calls me ignorant, then says the thing that prevented him from having access to the 2 restricted games was irrelevant.
It was irrelevant, because you DO NOT GET IT! It wasn't about the age gate itself. It was about the ability to click and claim for the game I wanted to choose.
You shouldn't be able to click locked games, because they are locked.
Did anyone on Reddit even mention whether this was for a fact, or were they implying differently? While you're at that, you're saying that this means the games in the giveaway would not be accessible at all, in contradiction to the giveaway's intentions? So basically, rigged from the start? As I'm looking at the giveaway, there's also no stipulation that says that it "stays locked". There's only the fine print that warns that Intel could change things if there was some major development. But this was overall never the case. These were the thoughts I already went through and looked for the information about well before you even came along.
While you're also at that, if it's age gated, then is that not a thing that implies it can be unlocked? So a locked game doesn't mean it's truly locked. It means you need go through the appropriate path to unlock it. Where the hell do you think that's gonna happen without knowing firsthand, since no one else even discussed this process? And should I actually find the path to do so anyway, therein lies the question: Why the hassle when I could've just done it the way I originally tried to do it?
Everything had to do with you. You could say they could've been clearer, but you did absolutely nothing to help your case and blame them wholly.
More gaslighting. No. There was absolutely nothing that could ever help my case the way they set it up and allowed me to use it the way I did. There was nothing that actually explains what I should be doing. It only says a few things about what I'm allowed to do. It does not elaborate. What you lack is the understanding of that problem. Instead you think it's ok to blame a user for their error while ADMITTING Intel was remiss to convey the proper information. That's such bull, you shouldn't even be saying crap.
I also don't know how their age verification thing works, as the 99.99% of people never had your problem.
I'm not even talking about the age verification. I'm talking about GETTING there. 99.999% of these people may or may not have gone through the route I did. I am not polling every single person. Be realistic. The subject was never brought up. And even if 99.999% of people have already gotten there, where in your fantasy world would you think this would be a big enough problem for discussion to materialize? How Am I supposed to know that? What they were able to do is not going to be the main issue.
On top of this, wow! You've just admitted how worthless the Reddit threads were as you didn't understand how the age verification works after fighting with me about it. I would hope you would realize my point here.
Let me break it down for you since you clearly have no idea what you're dealing with: The downloads tab itself is the main part of the site you actually are entitled to open and claim things. You generally can claim each and every thing that appears, if you can. That's how the site normally works. When I entered my code to the giveaway, it populated the games that were a part of it, and I played it like it instructed in the email. But it didn't do it's part that way when it prevented me from being able to choose the game I did want at the time. They failed to explain that it was likely accessible on a different tab. I had no way of knowing that at the outset.
The way the giveaway ideally would work is that even if a game game is locked or not, common sense dictates that you click it from the page, mainly the downloads tab. If it's locked and needs the age verification, it's just a simple form. That was what I tried to do the entire friggin' time. Is there supposed to be something wrong with that part you find fault with me? After all, you said that it should be "simple".
This was NEVER about the age verification thing itself. That was not the concern. Don't even mention it! I can already pass that. The issue was about getting to the game page itself, whether or not there's an age gate. Yes, it could have been actually been locked for different reasons, but not only did the subject evidently not surface, no one could even possibly specify if it was the case. So how was I even supposed to know about it? It wasn't that the games were meant to be functionally locked. if it even was the case, this giveaway would be more of a sham. But finding out that it could be accessed and that I wasn't well informed because the information was never available, this does NOT make it my fault in the slightest. Be realistic.
This "phenomenon" you faced seems to be you skipping the age verification like you do on steam
As I had explained earlier and you keep speculating things with your wild imagination that never did happen: I never "skipped" a thing! it simply didn't do anything. I said I tried to click the game icon. It was virtually "locked", not doing anything. The button was unresponsive. It never loaded the game's page. There was no age gate to go through. Absolutely nothing to skip when it doesn't initiate at all! I don't know how many times I even have to explain this. This was not something done on my part. Button no worky! That was it.
I want to know where this age verification screen shows up on, because however you skipped it
Even though I have basically reiterated this on my current response, I still didn't skip a damned thing. There's nothing to skip. I could never open the page, as it never refreshed to a new page. The thing ultimately could be accessed through a different tab, as opposed to the downloads tab that I was originally directed to. The alternate tab has a graphic for the giveaway, which contains the list of games specific to the giveaway. From there, I can access all games. Button worky! On that, I click a game. if it requires the verification, that will pop up. Not even that I would skip it, but it's hard to miss.
All that could have just simply worked on the downloads tab that I was originally on, and I would've avoided this problem. The entire time, there was not a damned thing explaining this process at all. Even had there not been an age verification thing at all, all of the games would've been accessible anyway that route. Either way, things didn't overall work as expected, and nothing was discussed about this discrepancy, if anyone even encountered this. All anyone ever said was that there may have been an age verification thing that simply may exist (which is pretty hard to miss). That tells me squat. It brings me to the issue that you asked, where do I even begin find that if it wasn't working where I was trying to access them? I had to find out for myself, no thanks to anyone.
You said "I would think that if they splashing the bundle of games on my download page, I should've been given all of them instead of being unfairly duped." You believe that just because there were 3 or 5 options, given the choice of 1, you should still be entitled to all 3 or 5 options.
Absofreakinlutely NOT. That's not what I said in context. I would have fairly expected that I was allowed to choose the one game I wanted. The point was that to do that, I should've been able to access all of them and make my choice. I didn't even say I was entitled to all of them for that. I said this in that due to the consequences of the predicament, it would've been preferable to rectify that situation that way. You might think it was extreme, but you also went as far as to attack my character by thinking I was being selfish by daring to think that kind of thing could rectify the trouble. WTF? You think I only wanted that just for myself? Hell, I actually think EVERYONE who entered the giveaway should get their keys too! This was about doing right by everyone especially if they actually were affected.
Did I ever say I was trying to impress you or get on your good side? Did I ever say I cared how you viewed me? You seem to have me misunderstood.
You're not helping yourself.
Regardless you referred to those sites as being sketchy. Because you would've had to use them at all. Who's being condescending and a hypocrite now? I guess you. Circle of life right?
PS: Seems all you had to do is click the locked game and verify. Maybe someone else can confirm.
Me explaining to you how the sites can be riddled with poor information and people who act in bad faith not unlike you, does not make me a hypocrite just for academically exploring them. I already knew for a fact of their reputation. WHat really mattered was there wasn't anything they said at the time that was relevant. You've accused me of not even using them in an attempt to try a dig at thinking I was as ignorant as you. I'm demonstrating to you that they are not the end-all be-all of information you've been pretending to lecture me to use it. Meanwhile, you've already just told me as much when you clearly didn't understand the site and evidently you're saying that your Reddit resource was just as insufficient as I was telling you the whole time. You're not even close to being accurate, on top of the wild assumptions you've had so far. There's no way you are as sincere as you think you are right now.
PS: To reiterate, I did attempt click the locked games in the place where I could find and claim the games. It just didn't do anything itself. You'd have to have some incredible foresight to just think to maybe try something else before claiming a game like I did, but I am human. This doesn't mean that the issues I had to address means that the way I was using it was my fault. I was using what I could use under the circumstances.

"It was irrelevant, because you DO NOT GET IT! It wasn't about the age gate itself. It was about the ability to click and claim for the game I wanted to choose."I literally just got it and that was exactly it. It was very relevant and on point. Don't deflect it doesn't work with me.
"Did anyone on Reddit even mention whether this was for a fact, or were they implying differently? While you're at that, you're saying that this means the games in the giveaway would not be accessible at all, in contradiction to the giveaway's intentions? So basically, rigged from the start? As I'm looking at the giveaway, there's also no stipulation that says that it "stays locked". There's only the fine print that warns that Intel could change things if there was some major development. But this was overall never the case. These were the thoughts I already went through and looked for the information about well before you even came along."Again, I literally gave you 3 sources + 4th counting SG, in 3 different time frames, 7 years, 8 days, 2 days, 2 days. Yes they did to everything.
The giveaway was not rigged because there was an age restriction for certain games. In fact that was always the intention. This is common practice, everywhere.
You obviously didn't look good enough if I could find sources dating 7 years back with the exact same format of giveaway they're doing right now, along with sources that are 8 days old. Also, there's no statement that it stays locked, it's likely your adblocker that prevented you from clicking on it. That's not intels fault. Others have stated in written words on the sources I listed you that you click the lock and it verifies your age and you can proceed. You claim to not be able to do so. Whether it's an extension, an adblocker, user error, some glitch you pc has, etc., it still absolves intel of fault.
"While you're also at that, if it's age gated, then is that not a thing that implies it can be unlocked? So a locked game doesn't mean it's truly locked. It means you need go through the appropriate path to unlock it. Where the hell do you think that's gonna happen without knowing firsthand, since no one else even discussed this process? And should I actually find the path to do so anyway, therein lies the question: Why the hassle when I could've just done it the way I originally tried to do it?"Correct, having a lock to represent age restricted isn't bad. The path was to click on the lock and verify your age, after which they'd unlock. Most users never had your problem because it was self explanatory for them. It was discussed before, you expected a intel tutorial. Understandable, it could be a little confusing, it just didn't exist. The 99.99% of users figured it out. You didn't. That doesn't entitle you to all video games because you weren't part of the 99.99% that figured it out. Didn't want to be that guy, but turns out you're part of that 0.01% that's unlucky to use an adblocker or some glitchy browser, fails to click on things, google things, or just a little slower than the rest. Doesn't mean you now deserve the entire bundle.
"More gaslighting. No. There was absolutely nothing that could ever help my case the way they set it up and allowed me to use it the way I did. There was nothing that actually explains what I should be doing. It only says a few things about what I'm allowed to do. It does not elaborate. What you lack is the understanding of that problem. Instead you think it's ok to blame a user for their error while ADMITTING Intel was remiss to convey the proper information. That's such bull, you shouldn't even be saying crap."I mean googling it like I did would've helped you. There was a post dating 7 years back, even if you tried 2 months ago, you still had a post from 7 years ago. So you could've helped your case there. What about you e-mailing them? No of course you couldn't help your case there, because that requires effort from your part. You didn't wake up today and someone had to tell you to move your right foot in front of your left foot to walk, and no one had to tell you to eat, drink water and breathe. Somehow you needed those things bad enough you got them figured out. I would've understood your side if maybe 20% of users had your problem. As you've said though, you failed to find any help with your problem(although it's out there). However, you seem to fall in a small group of people who failed the age verification check for whatever reason. You got a broken browser maybe, maybe you got a glitchy extension, maybe you didn't click the lock and you're lying like people lie to support most calls when they f something up and they want to secure a better outcome. However, this wasn't 20%, there's almost no one talking about this, that's true. Still a simple google search (which I've provided to you the exact words) returns multiple results with what you need.
"I'm not even talking about the age verification. I'm talking about GETTING there. 99.999% of these people may or may not have gone through the route I did. I am not polling every single person.

What they were able to do is not going to be the main issue."You had to click the lock, according to the comment in the reddit thread. Not sure how many routes the giveaway websites has. Like you go and put in the master key, then you redeem a game. Where did you go, mcdonalds then back to intel? Even if you believe it was not a big enough problem for it to be talked about, you still should've searched for it or e-mailed them.
"On top of this, wow! You've just admitted how worthless the Reddit threads were as you didn't understand how the age verification works after fighting with me about it. I would hope you would realize my point here.Actually someone provides a step by step instruction through it in the 7 year old thread.

I don't understand which other tab you say it was accessible in that wasn't the dashboard tab. It was accessible in the dashboard tab, you just had to click the lock to verify your age. In the downloads tab you claimed your key.
https://www.reddit.com/r/IndianGaming/comments/1l9ual0/intel_game_giveaway_score_assassins_creed_mirage/
There's two images in this thread showing the claimable games in the dashboard, both with locked and unlocked games. They were redeemable and unlockable in the dashboard, where the master key is redeemed.
"The way the giveaway ideally would work is that even if a game game is locked or not, common sense dictates that you click it from the page, mainly the downloads tab.

The key is redeemed on the dashboard, doesn't mean it has to switch to downloads. What I'm explaining is if you couldn't do it, when everyone else can, and you say you clicked the lock, then it was a glitch with your browser, or one of your extensions. It still isn't intels fault. It just means whatever something you got, prevents you from clicking the lock. It doesn't prevent others. They don't service your browser and extensions. They already got enough going on with their own website. So regardless Intel's website is still not at fault.

You not being well informed I agree, but its your problem, doesn't now entitle you to all games. The information was available dating 7 years back, stop lying already like it wasn't there I provided you multiple sources. You be realistic.

I imagined the age verification was like steam on a mature game, instead you had to click the lock, which you failed that process somehow, be it human error or your system had a problem. Not intels fault.

Also, stop lying, I gave you multiple sources this was discussed before, and they followed this format for at last 7 years now. People didn't say an age verification "may" exist. They confirmed it exists and gave instructions on how to pass it too. I gave you a source. They also confirmed that the lock doesn't mean it's OOS it means that you have to pass the age lock. Also, sometimes in life you will have to figure some things out. You can't have everyone spoon feed you instructions your entire life like you're some one way personal computer right? Gotta use some of that mush you've been gifted and solve some puzzles and questions you got.
"Absofreakinlutely NOT. That's not what I said in context. I would have fairly expected that I was allowed to choose the one game I wanted. The point was that to do that, I should've been able to access all of them and make my choice. I didn't even say I was entitled to all of them for that. "
"I would think that if they splashing the bundle of games on my download page, I should've been given all of them instead of being unfairly duped."Re-read your first comment in this thread, It was implied but I can see now that you've clarified how you might have meant having the entire selection available to pick 1 single game. How was I or anyone else supposed to know with that word choice and you not disagreeing with anyone who called you out on it? Why would you not say you didn't mean that this entire time to all the other people? Who knows, just you being you. Cringe.
PS: Wait I just read the rest of it, are you actually saying you should get all of the games or just 1? If you are saying all, you're bananas crazy. If just 1 it was a misunderstanding you never corrected from the start.
"I said this in that due to the consequences of the predicament, it would've been preferable to rectify that situation that way. You might think it was extreme, but you also went as far as to attack my character by thinking I was being selfish by daring to think that kind of thing could rectify the trouble. WTF? You think I only wanted that just for myself? Hell, I actually think EVERYONE who entered the giveaway should get their keys too! This was about doing right by everyone especially if they actually were affected."Ah yes, you're wrong, no you shouldn't get a single other game. They clearly stated 1 game and you used your quota. You just want free extra stuff because you're selfish. Stop it, bad boy. Intel wasn't in the wrong, you didn't know how to use their site. There's always a small % like you who misses out or makes a mistake. Most people figured it out and are happy, giveaway is working as intended. You are not a majority or even a relevant number to make grounds that the website is this bad or hard or impossible to use that you had these difficulties. The overwhelming majority has no problems. You, the user in this case are the problem. Through your hardware maybe, maybe it's between the keyboard and the chair(at least I think it's here).
"You're not helping yourself."Actually, I am. I'm clarifying to you that you couldn't pay me for me to want to impress you when you're in the wrong. If you can't even get me with money, then you should understand your perception of me means absolutely nothing to me, because I don't live by your standards or to please people who feel the need to be pleased simply because they believe anything that contradicts their pov is displeasing in sight. You do you, I will do me.

You wanna throw a shit stain at reddit and say you're not one to rely on those websites or go to them for information, but you're comfy enough to be part of the steam hentai group, because they got the real support for the intel gaming access giveaway, and they got everything else reddit would have just more not sketchy.

I ain't perfect and maybe I would've instalocked nightngale too if I was too lazy to check and had the same problem as you. My point is more centered around you believing you are now entitled to all the other games. Except if it were me, I would've said "Fk, it is what it is, we'll get them next time.". I ain't gonna be like damn, now intel's gonna have to send me all the games, the newest prototype cpu and 2 of the ceo's girlfriends as compensation, otherwise how am I gonna go on with my life?
Imagine if you could put 10% of the effort you put in replying to me in making a reddit thread or writing a support ticket to intel.? Where would you be now?(Sometimes I ask myself the same thing, where would I be if instead of writing these essays I'd spend the time on something more relevant? Like lets be honest, I'm likely talking to a rock here, and you're not the first. Nothing will get to you because you're stuck on wanting more free shit on top of the free stuff you already got. I know that feeling, I don't know how I ever got over it. Maybe it's cause I already have so many games I'll likely never have the chance to play them all in a life time and that eats at me.)

I literally just got it and that was exactly it. It was very relevant and on point. Don't deflect it doesn't work with me.
I'm not deflecting. You actually did not get it.
Again, I literally gave you 3 sources + 4th counting SG, in 3 different time frames, 7 years, 8 days, 2 days, 2 days. Yes they did to everything.
They certainly did not help your overall understanding. Like you didn't understand the age verification thing that even though they were talking about it, somehow the info you needed to understrand wasn't there. So how is that a trustworthy resource?
The giveaway was not rigged because there was an age restriction for certain games. In fact that was always the intention. This is common practice, everywhere.
Is it common practice to have nonfunctioning buttons in a promotion that tells you you could choose any of them? If I didn't have a way to claim anything, then no. It's rigged. That's the point.
You obviously didn't look good enough if I could find sources dating 7 years back with the exact same format of giveaway
Typically it's one game at a time. A bundle of RNG'd games is practically unheard of. So no, not the same format. I've had my Intel account for years. I've never had stuff I couldn't claim. Ever. This was the first time it ever did that. Not one person explained that I would have to use a different tab - and that's even considering if that was ever a thing at all.
In fact that was always the intention. This is common practice, everywhere.
I don't have a contention with this, you fool. I have a contention with the design and function of the website. it doesn't matter what the reason is for the lock. What matters is being able to click on it. That's the only simplest task that hinges on access.
Also, there's no statement that it stays locked, it's likely your adblocker that prevented you from clicking on it.
I never said it should stay locked. I fully expected it doesn't. As I explained to you, the typical way to claim stuff is the way I did it. It certainly wasn't an adblocker that made any difference becuase that would've globally blocked everything when this was not the case.
Others have stated in written words on the sources I listed you that you click the lock and it verifies your age and you can proceed.
Any explanation of that is not explaining jack shit about:
Where. The. Frick. Do. I. Click???
It doesn't matter what the reason was for the lock. What matters is getting there in the first place. Not one person said it's in a different tab.
I mean googling it like I did would've helped you. There was a post dating 7 years back, even if you tried 2 months ago, you still had a post from 7 years ago.
I'm drilling this to your thick skull: I already DID!!! You didn't read. 7 years back to 2 months ago also doesn't mean they are relevant. The giveaway for this thing was....just this month? Way off. Not at all connected to what this is about either.
What about you e-mailing them?
What is with you and your luxury of thinking the world is as perfect as you think it is? You think I have to suffer with the corporate email toss to find out how to actually use the giveaway? Waste of time! You know what happened to the guy who did do that when they had a concern about this giveaway? They told him that the giveaway ended YEARS AGO! Yeah, I am not going to be playing with that BS around here.
However, you seem to fall in a small group of people who failed the age verification check for whatever reason. You got a broken browser maybe, maybe you got a glitchy extension, maybe you didn't click the lock and you're lying like people lie to support most calls when they f something up and they want to secure a better outcome. However, this wasn't 20%, there's almost no one talking about this, that's true. Still a simple google search (which I've provided to you the exact words) returns multiple results with what you need.
I didn't fail shit. It never appeared! there was no age verification. There was no new screen. Nada. There was no point age verification was a thing. It's NOT a broken browser. I tried different browsers. Same shit. The site was glitchy, not anything on my end. And I actually don't have a capability to lie. This actually happened to me. You in all your doubts have made a fool of yourself.
You had to click the lock, according to the comment in the reddit thread.
I DID, you dolt!!! I DID. Clicky, clicky clicky!!!! Didn't do shit! The site was BROKEN. Get that through your thick skull. A Reddit comment isn't going to explain what is going on with it.
Actually someone provides a step by step instruction through it in the 7 year old thread. Which is something along the lines of "click the lock, verify your age and claim the game".
An OLD instruction for something else doesn't make it relevant. I already DID do that without reading that "instruction". Guess what? The button wasn't working!!!! No matter how many times I pressed. It. Didn't. Work!!! Obviously something had changed. How many times are you going to be banging your head against the wall doing the same thing with no results? You think that's gonna magically work? Hello? Talking to your brain. If a thing doesn't work the way people say it works, why the hell would you keep at this to beat a dead horse for this absurdity?
Your key is redeemed in the dashboard which shows your options as well.
Good lord! Did you forget the part that I ended up claiming a game the way I was originally trying to do it for the locked ones? Why are you even bothering trying to parrot what they said and not understand the problem? What an empty-headed response!
No one said anything at the time mentioning they couldn't click anything. People were discussing have to with the understanding of why the icon was there. They didn't elaborate that they were having problems with site functionality. Huge difference. There was a reason why I keep telling you that they obviously aren't on about that and that it's not a valid resource anymore.
That's the way the giveaway ideally would work in your preferred way. The key is redeemed on the dashboard, doesn't mean it has to switch to downloads.
No. I was already on the downloads tab. That's the page I was directed to in the first place after I entered my key to enter the giveaway, and it happens to be the page I normally claim games. The locked games were not claimable from there when they should be accessible, and I had no reason to expect that to be a problem. No one on Reddit is gonna come around and say "Oh, you don't use the downloads tab. You have to use the other one". No one said that. Like spodamayn, they only explained what the lock icon was supposedly about. They didn't explain exactly what to do about the situation that you can't actually click on it on the downloads tab, if that was a thing. That's the difference. That's the information I could never find about in the first place when I did look. I looked. I scoured through comments and not one person brought up the problem I specifically was having. I keep telling you this multiple times. They don't talk about that. So why would I go any further and keep wasting my time? Why should I believe anything I read that doesn't address the problem I was having? Foolish. I'm not going to keep chasing windmills to the end of time.

Actually the entire thing is about the age verification lock. If that was not a concern you would've never complained.
NO it does NOT! The downloads page was unresponsive. This is NOT related to the age verification. It's a DISABLED button that cannot be clicked! As in, there wasn't a link. It's an object itself that did nothing. It's not because the age verification is for the lock icon. It's because the object itself is not a link. Just a picture. Good lord, you have no idea how websites work.
The information was available dating 7 years back, stop lying already like it wasn't there I provided you multiple sources. You be realistic.
7 years is a lot of time for details to be outdated, and that becomes a liability issue. So, no, you have to be realistic.
I imagined the age verification was like steam on a mature game, instead you had to click the lock, which you failed that process somehow, be it human error or your system had a problem
You could imagine a lot of things, but if imagination is not fact, it's not valid.
So you didn't do enough digging the first time, just picked nightingale and then got upset. Like I said from the start? Also, stop lying, I gave you multiple sources this was discussed before, and they followed this format for at last 7 years now.
Wrong.
Even the very first thing I did was Google. The very first things that popped up was Reddit. The very first thing I looked as Reddit. That is what i did when I came across my prblem and wanted to know what I should've done differently. All anyone said was what I would expect to do. Not one person discussed in reference to people not being able to click the icon.
Not one person said anything about what I ended up doing. None. Not in the last 2 weeks. I am not going back 7 years for outdated information. You're foolish. Stop saying they talked about it. They didn't! Even all you cited was the age verification. That was NOT the problem I was facing! So, no, not one person was discussing about how they couldn't click their link. This is not a lie.
People didn't say an age verification "may" exist. They confirmed it exists and gave instructions on how to pass it too.
No, and it's becoming increasingly clear with some of the things you don't understand, reading comprehension and critical thinking is also not much of your strong suit.
They discussed on the topic of what to expect when the age verification comes up. They didn't guarantee if it required one. Particularly the fact that the giveaway is an RNG'd mix of games that didn't require it; it would be accurate to say they would advise it IF that was applicable.
Critical of all when you're going "reeeeee Reddit!" you fail to understand these were also GENERAL instructions. Practically useless. They were not detailed for the overall giveaway itself. The context that you need to comprehend is that they're instructing how to claim the games. They weren't talking about the giveaway itself or how to use the giveaway. They only talked about a very narrow topic about the process of claiming games, vs participation in the giveaway. There's a whole huge difference. Most importantly what was apparently missing from that step was that they didn't say to switch the tabs! That was the part I did not know about, so how many times do I have to beat that into your head? They didn't have good info, and there was no official instruction related to the giveaway for problems like this.
Re-read your first comment in this thread, It was implied but I can see now that you've clarified how you might have meant having the entire selection available to pick 1 single game. How was I or anyone else supposed to know with that word choice and you not disagreeing with anyone who called you out on it? Why would you not say you didn't mean that this entire time to all the other people? Who knows, just you being you. Cringe.
PS: Wait I just read the rest of it, are you actually saying you should get all of the games or just 1? If you are saying all, you're bananas crazy. If just 1 it was a misunderstanding you never corrected from the start.
No. You said that I thought I should get all the games from the start. You clearly do not have reading comprehension. I said to get all AFTER the whole problem came up. Because when I ended up with something that I didn't choose, it deviated from what was expected to be done. You know there is a difference, right?
Ah yes, you're wrong, no you shouldn't get a single other game. They clearly stated 1 game and you used your quota. You just want free extra stuff because you're selfish.
No, they said choose one. As in, this implies there will be multiple to choose, you can choose a quantity of one. It's not "hey, you got one" just for the sake of the fact I got one. The point was the process was to choose. I ultimately didn't get a choice.
There's always a small % like you who misses out or makes a mistake. Most people figured it out and are happy,
Most people likely have no issues for different reasons that you haven't thought.
You, the user in this case are the problem. Through your hardware maybe, maybe it's between the keyboard and the chair(at least I think it's here).
No, the problem is your ignorance.
Actually, I am.
No, you're not. You're a vindictive troll.
I'm clarifying to you that you couldn't pay me for me to want to impress you when you're in the wrong. If you can't even get me with money, then you should understand your perception of me means absolutely nothing to me, because I don't live by your standards or to please people who feel the need to be pleased simply because they believe anything that contradicts their pov is displeasing in sight. You do you, I will do me.
That's not a dunk, guy. You keep demoting yourself.
The world is riddled with poor information and people who act in bad faith. The point is you still go out there.
No shit, Sherlock. You're one of them. You can't be taken seriously at all at this point.
you wanna throw a shit stain at reddit
Here's you not knowing much about the dark side of Reddit.
Very well, then your browser or extensions malfunctioned. I ain't perfect and maybe I would've instalocked nightngale too if I was too lazy to check and had the same problem as you.
Again, it wasn't anything that blocked anything from the browser. I had already searched and didn't get my answer. if you actually took the time to read the threads you've been screeching about particularly for this giveaway from last week, you should look into whether they give very specific instructions and not the generalized ones.
My point is more centered around you believing you are now entitled to all the other games.
No the point was the giveaway was a sham.
Except if it were me, I would've said "Fk, it is what it is, we'll get them next time.". I ain't gonna be like damn, now intel's gonna have to send me all the games, the newest prototype cpu and 2 of the ceo's girlfriends as compensation, otherwise how am I gonna go on with my life?
You don't even have a next time.
Imagine if you could put 10% of the effort you put in replying to me in making a reddit thread or writing a support ticket to intel.? Where would you be now?(Sometimes I ask myself the same thing, where would I be if instead of writing these essays I'd spend the time on something more relevant? Like lets be honest, I'm likely talking to a rock here, and you're not the first. Nothing will get to you because you're stuck on wanting more free shit on top of the free stuff you already got. I know that feeling, I don't know how I ever got over it. Maybe it's cause I already have so many games I'll likely never have the chance to play them all in a life time and that eats at me.)
I don't even have to imagine. I had already done more than that stuff and somehow you think the blame is on me while you've made a lot of erroneous statements, used flawed logic, and end up being a conceited a-hole. At most, a useless one.

Hi, there is deal in which for registering on Intel website - https://softwareoffer.intel.com/ (it requires mail + telephone number) and then subscribing to their newsletter - https://game.intel.com/us/newsletter/ you can get free games.
After few days (around week) you can get one of these games:
-Nightingale (Steam)
-Total War Warhammer III (Steam)
-AC MIrage (Ubi)
-Remnant 1 (Steam)
-6 months of Ubisoft+ Classics
I'm not sure if this deal is fitting for this forum, because it requires giving some data, but I think its great deal (unless it ended already, which we won't know until next batch of keys will be sent... or it won't at all :P)

It's around Reddit/Polish deals sites for some time and it gets more and more popularity, so better be quick
