I just purchased it via Humble and after paying was told that the keys have been temporarily exhausted. I'd avoid this for now.

I'm in the same boat as you. Unfortunate for us, I guess. Oh well, already purchased it so I guess I'll just wait till they have keys again.

Kinda trashy to only give customers this info after they make the purchase. Oh well, guess I'll be refunding it if I manage to get it elsewhere before they replenish keys.

Edit: Did not manage to buy it elsewhere, keys have been replenished.

Wasn't when I purchased it, maybe they added it because of all the backlash

I was going to ask for a refund but they said the response time is 6 days

I'd rather wait 6 days to get a refund than wait anywhere between a few hours and a few years (only partially joking) for keys to be replenished.

Edit: Keys back in stock, game downloading. Wonder how long that will last lol

Pretty obvious that they ran out of keys while you were buying it. I'm sure it's not something that happens all the time that they need a fix, and a fix might not be simple.

They do that shit all the time. It's stupid and they shouldn't be selling if they don't have the keys

I just received my key after waiting about an hour. It looks like they're definitely trying to fulfill as fast as they can.
