    Yarrrrr.

    Also any game-related license that covers a period of time instead of that specific product is dumb as hell.

    What the fuck? How does this happen? What does “partnership licenses are expiring” mean? Did they make this game knowing it had an expiration date?

      You can probably buy it from a key reseller. That’s what I did when I wanted to replay Prey 2006, it was like $3 iirc. Really, though, if you can’t buy it from the rights holders just pirate it.

      Edit: Actually I’ll go as far as saying if the actual creators of the game won’t make any money from your purchase, just some company that bought the rights, pirate it then too, fuck em
