It looks like Alienware Arena is considering to give 'coupons' to purchase games to their users that will be out of stock in the first minutes in future Game Vaults. So, earn ARP will be worth it in 2025? If the answer is absolutely not, it would be better to dissolve the Game Vault feature and return to the 'giveaway tab' like 10 years ago. Time will tell what will happen 👀.

That's closer to what I used to suggest a long while ago. If they're doing it that way, it's kinda odd. If anything, it should just cost more ARP to be fair.

Well, if it is a significant discount it may be worth it. Imagine if you get a AAA game an 85/90% discount, some people may like it too. It will be a win/win situation for AWA and developers, as they will get more sales that way.

...or 5/10% discount as always)

If it is a 70%+ discount it would be great.

@TurdFerguson87 It could be a pretty chaotic move that makes me assume there will be more Steam keys shortage next year. We are many users every year.

@jtcorrochano A 90% discount coupon for the latest and treding AAA release? Man, I doubt about your comment. A lot. That is impossible. Devs can be that action without AWA.

@Sion89 Exactly, we do not forget the famous coupons of their peripherals with 5% or 10%. Hope they consider other options. But it is certain that not all of us will got the game we want as I can see with the survey.

Just to clarify on this one, it wouldn't be a replacement for games in the Vault but like say Baldur's Gate 3 all go out, having an option after to get the game from Steam or something for 50% off if you weren't able to get a key.
King Luiso - 11.11.2024 15:23:38
@Pylawn Sure thing. Even at 50% coupon sounds great, but only if they consider to give 'em wiithout expire date. Otherwise it won't be a good thing for all. But something is clear: there will not be restock as I could saw in the survay.

@Pylawn - Any hidden restrictions? I remember AWA's GOG code for 70% off Witcher 3 GOTY didn't work, but eventually learned it was valid only on the full price. So, the code price was HIGHER than GOG's usual sale price for that game. 😒
