nah, this game is actually rly good and thatās an insane deal; had i not watched a complete playthrough on release I wouldāve definitely bought it at this price
itās apparently 90% off other places too
incase someone doesnāt ālikeā IG (like me )
why do you not like them? and which store would you recommend?
because from being an actual legit store, itās the only store iāve had problems with (keys not working),
and at some point they started to add hidden fees and currency conversion to checkout, which isnāt even allowed in EU afaik, but also pisses me off on āprincipleā by not being upright about their prices/ex making itad āuselessā, and that if it wasnāt for something like paypal youād never even know you got āfleecedā paying a little extra
so āpoorā personal experience, and i dislike their pricing/payment model now
-just overall many better options (for me) and iāve not been interested in their bundle offers either, let alone individual game discount enough to reconsider since
and as far as other store recommendation, āanything elseā,
well maybe not gamergate,
but GmG Wingamestore, even Voidu iāve had less issues with and 0 qualms about, 2games iāve only tried once i tihnk
and ofc Gamebillet, Gamesplanet and Fanatical seem to always be solid too,
Ditto for meā¦
Reminds me the time I had a key not working and they gave me like a key about 5 times before I got a legit working key and in the process I also got a different wrong game for free lol
But to be fair I got the key for free that time I did their quiz thingys and they gave the credit. That was a while back though.
sounds like you had an easier/quicker time getting the key issue sorted, and that even despite being freeā¦
I also stopped using IG for routine purchases unless thereās a really good deal when I activate the key right away. The ones previously purchased seem to have a high number of duds, it seems that if you have a key thatās unrevealed in their site, it often gets reshuffled into another sale, and if itās used already, you get a generic response of āplease activate your keys right away after your purchase, we cannot guarantee replacement keysā if itās outside of a week or two. The ones I have revealed and saved for later seems to be mostly okay, though still had a few duds, but the unrevealed ones, I was getting about 50/50.
Uff thatās a lot of negativity towards IndieGala .
I think i havent bought anything from them so i dont have any āstakesā in this . Just saw arguably good deal and shared it here. Iām not promoting them or anything.
Iāve only really bought Steam keys from HB, Fanatical and Gamesplanet, but they seem to be solid in terms of responsiveness. I didnāt buy anything from IG, but always felt scumminess from them, good to know I was right
Donāt worry, we know you are not promoting them, and it was indeed a good deal.
I saw the warnings about IG and wanted to share my experience a little bit in the issues I have had with my keys. Granted, some of my older keys were a bit old, maybe 2 years, but still, when they were not revealed on the site, I just figured that they were safe. It could also be the developers as well, if they take the same batch of keys they gave to IG and then go to sell them elsewhere, hoping that there are some that werenāt used, so thereās potential for double dipping there. Though incentives are really low for developers, because itās not like physical copies, they donāt cost anything to generate another set of keys.
I did buy some bundles from them that later had games removed from Steam altogether. I think maybe there were some shady developer/publishers in those groups.
As for their good deals with the cracker jack deals, I have never had any problems with those keys when I have made my purchases, just to clarify. Those ones I always buy and activate right away, so thereās no question or concern about it. And IG support is quick to get back if there are any issues with replacement keys if you do try to activate the key shortly after purchase if there are issues.
I cannot blame them entirely for some of the problems they have had. I am going to guess that some of the problems are multi-factorial and them letting some unsavory devs/publishing teams into their bundles have had to do with it. Some of their bundles really just donāt contain any good games. I used to buy so many from them, but aside from giving the games away, I did little else with them.
We know
Hey, it was a good deal.
