No one's praising any site for doing such reselling. You can find such keys even on g2a and some russian sites and it's not illegitimate. That would be if they sold hacked accounts.Don't go praising CDKeys for that. They are a shady site where people sell illegitimate stuff like that.
I won't say categorically that it's all illegitimate, but i would say it's mostly so.You can find such keys even on g2a and some russian sites and it's not illegitimate.
The bottomline is that developers don't get any money from the keys being sold on G2A and CDKeys. From a Dev perspective, this is piracy with headaches. A lot of developers in the past have openly declared that pirating their games is better than buying the keys from G2A and CDKeys as those keys cause a lot more headache in terms of verification/blocking/refunds.I won't say categorically that it's all illegitimate, but i would say it's mostly so.
Search around for dev complaints, both indie and established, about g2a and analyses of their practices, there are plenty.
CDKeys have been selling several good games keys for a dollar or less which they got from Amazon prime gaming. I noticed this today regarding madden 2022 which is given free in Amazon.As far as I know G2A is illegitimate AF. But CDKeys isn't the same as them.
G2A allows anyone to sell their keys and have been caught selling stolen keys.
While CDKeys doesn't allow users to sell keys on their site. They purchase legit keys from cheaper regions (AKA Argentina and Turkey) - which certainly lands them in a grey area.
But at least developers are compensated fairly.
