Should I buy this game on CDKeys website?

[King Hadu]

Anyone has experience with this site? they currently list this for like $39 USD and green man gaming is $50

How is CD keys so much cheaper than steam?

If I buy on CD keys how much money is capcom likely to make?

I bought it on one of them. I forget which. I saved a couple bucks.

A cursory glance suggests their business model involves purchasing cheaper keys from developing nations and reselling them to consumers in developed nations for a mark-up. To that end, they might be safe to buy but as with any 3rd party key seller, there's always a risk.

I'd imagine Capcom would make less money than if you were to buy the game in your region.

hmmmm I guess Greenman Gaming is safer?

[midori]

100% safe, used them like 50 times over the last 10+ years

I actually preorder it back there from CDkey. Definitely safe. Deliver on release and has no issue

Instant gaming under 40$

I didn't know this and now I feel guilty. Blech.

I think steam itself stopped or significantly reduced price differences so I don’t know if it’s still valid.
Key resellers also sell keys that are valid in EU & UK only suggesting they can’t be from Brazil or Argentina.

However it’s still hard to tell where they get the keys from and if they harm publishers.

I have been using that one for years and no problems at all.

green man gaming might be safer, but i got my key from CDKeys and no problems. I think I've bought one thing from them before as well that I had no issues with.

I got game+seasonpass on cdkeys. I use both, though. They are great.
