I have acquired some game keys from Humble for games that I already own. If you haven’t heard about Humble Bundle, you should check them out here! https://www.humblebundle.com/bundles/

I would like to give the keys away here. I will do them consecutively so you can try for the ones you want or skip.

Please only participate in the giveaway if you really want the game (or would like to give it to someone who does).

Giveaway one:

1.	Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition

Future giveaways...

2.	Batman: Arkham City - Game of the Year Edition 
3.	Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition
4.	Batman: Arkham Origins
5.	Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor GOTY
6.	Middle-Earth: Shadow of War Definitive Edition

Here are the rules:

  • The giveaway will be for 2 days (approximately the same time of day as started).
  • Top-level comments will be your entry. Feel free to reply to top level and start a discussion.
  • Each entry comment should include some sort of genuine reply. Why you want this game, your favorite game, game series, games character, etc. Does not necessarily need to be related to the giveaway game.
  • Please, only enter if you want the game!
  • You can top level comment even if you do not want to enter. Just note in the comment somehow that you DO NOT want to enter.
  • At the end of the two days, a random lemming will be chosen.
  • Key will be sent with secure messenger (Element, Signal), or email if preferred. Not over lemmy messages.

NOTE: I am in North America; I do not know if this means the keys will/will not work in other regions.

Cool seeing this sort of thing on Lemmy! Hope it gets traction.

I already own this game, though, so I do not want to enter.

Hey, you offering to send keys over Element! I have my own server, nice to see others in the wild.

I don't need the game, I just came to say hello.

Good luck with this giveaway!

Lol I love how wholesome Lemmy is. I, along with all the other comments as of now, already own the game and don't need it. Just wanted to say thanks for doing a giveaway! Hopefully it helps grow the community. Also, I love the Batman Arkham games, so if anyone hasn't played them, they're definitely worth checking out!

Looks like I'm the first comment actually interested in this cool giveaway! Thank you kind stranger for sharing your fortune.

Arkham would be the only game I'm interested in, as I do like Batman lore and hear the games are good. I've never played one before, but if my brother can get his hands on the OLED Steam Deck next week he will sell me his old one and I'll finally have a Deck to play games on!

I'm years from playing games (not since the PSP), so if there are any cool Steam games y'all want to recommend I'm all ears!

I don't have time for open world or RPGs, so I prefer puzzle, racing, and more linear story games. Pick-up-and-play stuff. That said, if you're passionate about a game, I'd love to hear about it!

The og arkham trilogy games are really good. I actually haven't played arkham origins or arkham Knights, but they look good.

I, too, have a steam deck, and the arkham trilogy runs great on it.

I don't need the game, but thanks for doing this!

[–] dandroid@dandroid.app 3 points 10 months ago

I've been meaning to play these games, so add me to the list of entries!

Giveaway over! I will be contacting the winner to arrange key delivery.
