"We've been told our games are too expensive in some countries but we've been using Steam's recommended pricing for a while. We trust Valve enough to not change this. If our games are still too expensive for you, you can pirate them until you have enough to support us."
From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

So, basically, G2A is a fence for stolen property? Why hasn't it been shut down by law enforcement?
Because only Factorio has been able to proove that is happening. That and they pretend they don't know that is happening as they are just the middle men.
Can you give the backstory of what happened with Factorio?

I had a better link on my old Lemmy instance but that one went the way of the dodo and I can't find that in-depth explanation.
Basically Factorio never goes on sale. Ever, it only gets more expensive so, if someone is selling a key for a price lower than their starting price point it must have been fraudulent.
