Hey folks! I've got some steam keys from humble-bundle of games I already own. Disco Elysium is one of 'em and one of the best games I've ever played. First come first serve! Tin Can and Disco Elysium are region locked. Sorry to my friends living in Turkey but you can't play it.

Edit: all gone! But you can still grab the games on steam. Support the creators, these are some great games!

oh I didn't know that. Especially when they have the gifting option. But anyways how're they gonna find out. I doubt they are on here. It's still a very small niche of the internet

Theoretically they're trying to prevent people re-selling and trading, because it makes companies less willing to participate. Many of the complaints I'm aware of were people who ended up admitting they were doing this frequently and buying multiple copies for that purpose (though that doesn't mean there aren't false positives).

The "best" way to give away extra keys is to redeem the actual steam key yourself, then share that key, obfuscated in some way so a human can manage it a bot cannot. As far as we know they can't track that.
