So I found a fairly cheap Borderlands 2 that says it's international version, but the guy that sells it is from Germany and he's mumbling something about not being able to activate the key IN GERMANY without VPN.

He also mentions that after activation, you get 2 versions of the game in your library: 1 International and 1 Russian.

My questions to you guys:

Does this key work normally for the rest of EU? Is it actually a RU key?

Has anyone bought a similar key?

Would I need a VPN to activate it? ( cause i'm not risking that shit )

sounds like a scam but i'm pretty sure it will only work in RU

This is actually a RU key, yes. But I'm not sure about the restriction, because they changed something around with it.

Is it the russian version or the international version? I bought the international version 3 days after release and I got 2 versions, one that was the "normal" (US/EU) version and a RU version. I installed and have been enjoying the "normal" version since then and yes, that includes multiplayer and all. (Go ahead check out my library in case you don't take my word). I just left the RU version uninstalled and unused.

Hmm interesting. But the key activated directly from steam ( meaning you didn't use vpn or anything like that ) ?

BTW it says International bundle pack ( EU+RU )

Yes, it did not require a VPN to activate and was done directly from steam. (I bought it from a trusty, cheap steam keys site.) I am in the US fyi.

Ok good. I guess I'll just try the key when I get it and find out myself :)
