Gaming Where do you buy your games?

[OliverReed]

I dont know if im allowed to ask this.

Hi guys I was wondering where you buy your games!. Usually I buy from steam through the sales but Ive noticed this site is much better for game especially games on early access! https://www.g2a.com/

eg Cheap command and coquer https://www.g2a.com/
or cheap Rust even sold by the dev https://www.g2a.com/rust-early-access-steam-cd-key-global.html

I buy my games from humblebundle.com and g2a.com

I bought games from g2a before they went full fee invasion and started charging for more than the usual. Last game I got for a friend was 6Eur. I ended up spending almost 9. I only buy from Steam now.

When did they start doing that? (it was a while ago i bought a game from there)

I got the game no longer than a week ago. As I am doing the Paypal checkout I get the following additional fees:

- G2A Shield (used to be into the shopping cart already)
- 22% VAT
- "Fees"
- "Paypal fees"

I don't believe for a moment they didn't pay any VAT up until now. They pumped the prices. Also, "fees"? And "Paypal fees"? Don't charge me more just because I use Paypal, since my "safe payment" doesn't mean shit without your stupid G2A shield anyway.

GOG.com and steam

Steam, but only on sales.

 

[migles]

usually get them from humble bundle, specially since they provide both steam and drm free options for loads of games..

Steam sales and Humble Bundle. Most of the games I have are from humble bundles.
