What should I do with it?
I can't gift it here because it's only activatable on gog.com

Edit: I already own it on gog :)

Edit, once more with feeling: Ths is NOT the Key you get from steam, it's from a boxed copy

You know that anything not activating that key for your personal use is pretty close to piracy right?

They give you another copy(isn't it from CDProject?).Of course the good thing to do is to activate it for yourself, but you can also give it and I don't think it's such a bad thing...

It actually is a bad thing. If you buy 1 copy and get multiple codes, all for personal use, that's still 1 purchased copy. If you give away 1 of the codes, 2 people become owners from just 1 purchased copy. All benefits of ownership over piracy should be reserved for owners, so this is cheating the system, and is a terrible thing to do to an honest developer.

If it's from a copy purchased on Steam then I will say that you may have a point. For anyone that doesn't know, any copy of the Witcher 1 or 2 on Steam can also be activated on GOG as well. The point is that they are giving you both Steam and DRM-free with your purchase. It does not mean that you get 2 licenses to the game.

Yeah that's what I meant. However it seems that I was mistaken as it's another key, not that one.

I have the Steam version and that CD Key was used for my gog account.
This is a Key from the retail version

Sorry man for eagerly judging you then. I thought it was the Steam copy key.

Then you can do what you wish with it I guess as you already own a license and that. I'd suggest you get a friend and give it to him :)

Maybe you should be less aggressive next time? Accusing him straight out without any knowledge of where the key came from is out of line, not to mention probably covered by the "no calling out" rule.

I jumped into an early conclussion and then I apologised for my mistake. I don't think though that I did anything wrong. Just assuming the copy came from Steam where it isn't.

My statement is still valid for any Steam copy out there.

Use it as a lure to fish for beggars...Oh, that one's accomplished.

I'm sure someone would appreciate it, maybe you have a friend who uses GOG who may want it. Maybe if you feel like giving away here you could set up some amazing itstoohard.com puzzle with it as the prize to the first solver (just mention it's GOG not steam). You could even give it as a confusing gift to an elderly relative if you forget their birthday...

Don't give it away. Gog is nice enough to give you a second key for their service if you own the game already, which is great, but they don't want people to buy the game once and give multiple copies to random people. That just undercuts their pro-customer stance and screws them over.

If it's not for giving away, what's the point of giving a second key to the owner of the game then?

Not sure if you mean what I think you mean, but in case you do: The GOG version of the game you get when buying it elsewhere is for personal use only. It's a backup for the buyer, in case the copy they got elsewhere becomes inaccessible (scratched disk, bankrupt online retailer, banned account, etc.), not something to be given away.

I don't think this is the case but even if it is, he paid for his own copy on GOG so giving away this spare key is no different than giving away his paid one. I like to think it as he's using his free spare copy and giving away the paid one, no difference in my book. If he were to give his spare GOG key that comes with the retail without owning the game on GOG, that would be another story.

Read further up the thread. It's not the backup key you get from owning it elsewhere.

The no begging policy should be enforced more strictly in threads like this one.

People got suspended just for joking about it in the past.

It's kind of tough to enforce a no begging policy in a thread where someone is posting asking what to do with a spare key.. They're basically asking for people to beg for a giveaway, or to get it personally.

There's still a difference, if I e.g. say give it to an random person/choose one from the users in this thread or say give it to me.

Of course there's a difference, I know that, but you and I both know people are going to do it anyway, and can you imagine how many people support would have to go through and ban?

Well, would increase our chances at winning giveaways I guess, haha.
