My sister is thinking of buying RPGMaker MV - I've seen some cheap prices, but I do remember that some sites have a lot of people dealing in stolen keys. What sites should I be looking at to help her get a deal on RPGMaker MV?
 
Isn't G2A the only well known shady site? I've bought plenty of keys from plenty of different sites and never had a problem, never bought from G2A though.

The big ones that are reliable are GMG, GOG, and Humble Bundle Store.

A couple other sites that I've bought games from that I never had problems with but people probably never heard of are:

www.gamebillet.com
www.nuuvem.com

Just make sure the games aren't region locked if you use those sites. I want to say they're out of Europe for the first and Brazil for the second.
 
Thanks... G2A was definitely one of the cheaper options I saw, so I'll steer clear of it.
 
GreenManGaming is probably the best one that is 100% legit
 
To be clear, I'm not specifically looking for a game - I'm looking for RPG Maker MV. Unfortunately, this isn't on a lot of gaming sites as it is a design program, not a game. I do appreciate the recommendations though.
 
you can just buy it on Steam

however, if you're looking for a better deal, I dunno if I can help you....they frequently have deals on it though

I just wish I had grabbed it when the Humble store had it cheap... I have seen it on another site 5 or 10 dollars cheaper, but I'll see what I can find. Thanks.

Except for when they were banned on Reddit for selling keys that weren't sourced by the developers. ;)

Unless youre buying from Steam, Blizzard, Origin, etc... You can never be 100% sure.

G2A is most definitely a key where keys are bought from other countries, stolen, or sold gifts. CDKeys.com and Kinguin are similar. Very sketchy.

You missed a big sale by less than two months.
 
Yeah, I had seen RPG Maker on quite cheap... I hadn't known at the time that my sister was going to want it, or I would have grabbed it. I'm sure it will go on really cheap shortly after she buys it too :laugh:
 
Isn't G2A the one where you can buy some sort of "key insurance" in case the key is bad, and then if you don't do that you're stuck with a bad key after if the key is bunk? Or was that kinguin? I ask only because that gives me serious red flags about the legitimacy of the keys when a service like this is offered.
 
I'm not sure, but I'd consider that a huge red flag too. And it would be enough to make me not buy from the site out of principle - if I pay for a key, I'd better damn well get a legitimate key, or a refund. I shouldn't have to pay a premium to be sure of that.
