Understatement of the year.

I only own one single Limited Run Games and it seems it was on a original BD for PS5. Sony would not license something different on their console. Still, this company seems shady i heard... in many cases. If it is a PC game... Limited Run Games obviously is not bound to a certain license and they could in theory even provide a cheap CD-RW or even just a Steam key in a box.

The key rule is "officially viewable" which is kinda enforcing a price parity (that does not really exist) with Steam (in house offers). On top of that there are limited keys, so a dev is not able to sell or give away countless keys "outside Steams influence".

However... according to what i heard, there is even a NDA which is done with the publishers... which is as well enforcing in many cases "price parity"... although, this agreement is not disclosed to the public, so we can not just link a "rule-page".

Some stuff is not "enforced" but rather "suggested" such as the regional-pricing. The publishers does not even need to adjust anything at all, Steam will take "care of" if a publisher is to lazy. It kinda is in some case passively enforced, yet... not "hard coded". Many publishers, guess the majority, may agree to those "suggestions", while rather a minority may adjust it after. Anyway, in the end Steam as well mostly will get what they want, even just by passive force.

You can believe what you want with the "sales tax" and VAT not being a sales tax at all, if it is soothing your nerves... okay for me.

Well I now know whoever was Gex marketing team to find someone to promote the Gex trilogy was a idiot as this guys main link to Gex is bashing Gex ip as much as he can whenever he could a major running thing with his content even heres the promo thing I am referencing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9Na5L0etac

Glad they included the English version audio options.

I'm not sure why you'd get someone to promote the games who makes fun of games they consider bad.

Ya it makes no sense in context as the guy in his regular content bashes the Gex ip regularly ,

Atleast in other cases of a similar vein like say AVGN when he was involved in the marketing of ''Plumbers don't wear ties'' he only bashed the game once in the the past and hes like the only well know youtuber/influencer that talked about it.. Plus he bashed other games equally as hard over the years

Where as Scott ? While he hates on alot of stuff sure , he hated on Gex as much as possible over the years it made no sense to have him promote and market it

Completely odd decision. I'm personally not into YouTubers who bash games all the time apart from AVGN since he's actually funny.
