Not to mention that people could've gifted individual games.

I really don't think they are too concerned about people re-selling the keys. At least not GG. Now, Bethesda might be concerned about that so I could possibly see that. I remember they recently had a Elder Scrolls pack on sale in the UK and that apparently redeemed with just one key. Was very surprised about that.

So while it probably would make more sense for GG to just get individual keys, I could see Bethesda insisting to do just one key to cut down on secondary market reselling.

Given the slow rate of discounting for Skyrim (still a 50-60% off title during sales), I wouldn't be surprised if Bethesda wasn't crazy about letting a bajillion copies of it and Dishonored into the secondary market to be resold for pennies on the dollar. Even eating the already granted keys might strike Bethesda/GG as a better option than individual keys for all the remaining packs. Just idle speculation though since we're only talking about a throw away one-liner in this thread.

And thanks to a request from @MysterD Sacred 2 Gold is now DRM Free. Now we just need a glitch sale.

Re-downloading time =D

Those of us that bought Sacred 2 Gold before it got switched over to DRM-free on GamersGate are stuck with the securom version lol. Kind of a crappy thing to do, I'll probably submit a support ticket.

I doubt those keys will be resold for less than 40-60% of MSRP in other places than CAG forums, so it shouldn't considerably hit Beth sales policy.

Yeah, I was looking into it. My library lists "Sacred 2 Gold (Old)" with a product code: DD-S2G. The downloader is now labeled: "Download Sacred 2 Fallen Angel (Old).exe" which further confirms that I'm not being auto-converted to the DRM-FREE version (yet at least). The DRM-FREE version has the product code: DD-S2GE. I'll probably submit a ticket -- lousy timing at the moment with the Beth Pack keys issue still causing rage. Oddly, I don't hear noise over BL2 keys.

I think everyone got their BL2 keys for the packs that were honored. So GG does come through on things and there likely is a legitimate reason the Bethesda keys are delayed.

Same.
I've Twitter'ed GG up asking about it.
We'll see what they same.

Let us know how things go w/ your ticket.

Looks like the daily deal is Dead Space 1 and 2 for 75% off $5.00 each.
They also have Dead Space 1+2 80% off for $8.00 ($6.39 if you have the 20% off compensation discount.) That is a really good price for Dead Space 1 + 2 =)


Also it looks like they gave everyone who had the old Sacred 2 Gold Edition with securom a free DRM version as well.

Good news and great price on that DS 1 and 2 pack. Insane price after discount. Already have them both or I would jump on that.

Wow great deal on that Dead Space 1 + 2. Never bought off of Gamersgate before. Could someone purchase using their 20 percent off and send me the keys? Not sure if that would work or not.

These aren't Keys I think. DS1 says "Securom" and DS2 says "other"

And oddly, the DRM free version of Sacred 2 Gold looks to be giftable...

Yea they basicly hooked people up with a second copy for free which was nice of them =), even nicer for me because I never revealed the codes for my securom version =)

Not sure if I should go with this for $6 or Steam.

Well considering Steam didn't discount them at all this Winter sale it may be a safe bet to grab them now. (I'm 90% sure this statement is true. I know Fallout definitely didn't and I thought the Dead Space franchise as well received no discounts.)

It's the best deal I've seen -- I'm just worried about SecuRom.
