Place to buy cheap Steam cd key?
I'm looking around at other online distributors and looking for a Steam CD key that is cheaper than $60. I played ♥♥♥ Creed across multiple games and it's the same experience with a different backdrop every time, so no way the game is worth $60 to me, and other places offer it cheaper, so no reason to not be buying it at a more appropriate price.

Most places are only offering Uplay keys, with the few Steam keys being priced much, much higher: http://www.allkeyshop.com/blog/buy-assassin-s-creed-4-black-flag-cd-key-compare-prices/

The above wasn't spam, it was my source. I went to allkeyshop.com and searched for assassin's creed black flag, and it gave me a result of many places selling Black Flag cd keys, listed from cheapest to most expensive. It's no more spam than me mentioning Steam on another website. Should other websites block links to Steam?

Does anyone know where a cheaper Steam key can be bought?

you can buy a steam key at steam :)

A very expensive one, yes. The game isn't worth nearly that for me (played many Ass Creeds, and it's the same experience every time, just different scenery), so I'm looking for a better deal, and those cd key stores are as real and legal and legitimate as Steam itself.

Cool, though that's a Uplay key. Tbh, the only way I'm even considering buying Black Flag is if it's firstly on Steam, and then sub $40. Having played enough of the others, it's simply not worth it to me otherwise. I'm just paying for a scenery change, getting to walk around in a new environment. The rest is copy and paste, and I've paid for it enough before.

No, you can get it for 20, just look harder. Look for the Nvidia promo onese, those go cheap. I got mine from a very well known auction site which I won't name here, for 20 bucks.

I want the automatic access to my friends list, as well as updating through Steam, and I trust Steam to be a reliable service more than I do Uplay. I also count on Steam having added longevity over Uplay and Origin, so I try to avoid both of those.

If you want it cheaper you can always wait for the sales at the end of this month and next :D

hehe... This guy.. he doesn't want to pay 60$ for a game Ubisoft has put more years into AC3 ahh the irony. Well like I said you can buy it on steam for 60$ :D or wait 5 months or so for a sale :). Oh just to remind you.. try digging up all the history Ubisoft did just for this game, just try and see how far behind in terms of details you are

Why do you want a steam key?

there will be no integration or updating through steam, all it does when you buy it through steam is launch uplay and the game. You'll have steam running separately, yes, but it will still run via uplay with your uplay account and friends list and uplay updates...now that I think about it, maybe it might update through steam, but I can't be sure. I bought 2 games via steam with uplay and I know it just opens up uplay when you launch through steam.

I just bought a uPlay key from the nVidia promotion. I don't care if it's not on Steam, I have to use uPlay anyways, plus it only cost me $15 :infected:

"The rest is COPY & PASTE" ????
oh, i suppose AC2 have ships? dude, you are not looking at the bigger picture here, don't say willy nilly that this game is as same as Ac1,2,3. we pay to support the franchise. its just... yeah, you got my point
Turbo Nozomix Nov 14, 2013 @ 11:16pm 
Sure, you see more than the copy and paste. For me, ships are a minimal thing without mission variety, and reviews for Black Flag strongly suggest that it is still mainly copy and paste: They repeatedly cite repetitious missions that become a chore to keep doing. Even the ship stuff is apparently wash, rinse, repeat, ad nauseum. Reviewers are saying they got frustrated doing the same thing over, and over, and over. That's how it's been in each Assn's Creed since the first, and I, personally, haven't felt a new experience with the different games, just different scenery. I've always felt like I'm doing the same old, because every type of mission in the games is just repeated endlessly.

yeah, you got a point there. well everyone have their own perspectives and taste soo who am i to say that you're wrong aight? well, if you wish to have a diffrent take on gaming, why not try the older games which is a whole lot different than the currentgen/next gen.
such as,half-life2,portal2,fallout3 and etc. :)

I'm not interested in paying the full price since as an Australian getting the game through Steam is $70, they had a release version that was pirated over a week ago and waited to release it, the release date has changed almost daily for the past few weeks and they have pulled this release the game weeks after console yet again and I'm not going to support that by giving them full value, as to uplay, steam has servers with my ISP meaning that the download doesn't count against my bandwidth limit that the uplay version would.
How do you like this guy...funny...funny as hell...
