g2a is a legit site. their games are either heavily discounted older titles, or purchasing access to a shared account. I guess it all depends what type of games you're into. Steam is a no brainer for legit games. You could also try eBay for discounted steam keys. There are plenty of deals to be had. I also like fanatical games. they also have deals which are often better priced than Steam. Hope this helps, and happy gaming:)
G2a isn't a legit site, they have a market place for key sellers and who knows where those keys come from. I've used it in the past and had a couple of games pulled from my steam account.
Fanatical though is legit.
Although these days Fantatical is the games retail arm of Fandom, who are the company that enshittified most of the video game wikis on the internet after they bought Wikia. So they're legit, but their parent company sucks.
