We have run out of keys for Sacred 2 and have removed the ability to purchase until the publisher delivers a new batch of keys.

 

Why isn't the publisher sending them keys don't they want to make money?

 

Maybe I'm naive but it just looks silly on the face of it,how hard can it be to make a batch of keys and send them.

It's the same as the seller linked to at the top of the fdm forum. They only get allocated a certain number of keys and periodically need to purchase more. I imagine that with such an obscure and lesser known old game like this they probably don't purchase many keys to sell in any case.

And the request to make more keys more than likely ends up in some overworked intern's inbox and it takes weeks for them to get to it.

Eventually they're done, it does take some time, at times.

It's also a business decision.

 

If they buy say 1000 keys, and only sell 400, they're stuck with 600 in inventory

 

The discounted price comes w volume in the buy, so if they reason they can only move 100 in say a month, they don't wanna invest in keys.
