Could anyone tell me what is the difference between the Steam key and the Social Club key?

And if buying the social club key is a good idea?

Anything to be aware of while buying this specific social club key?

Pros and Cons?

Kindly if you could just quote me while replying it would be awesome.

JaazakAllah and Thank you.

Steam launches RS Social club to start the game anyways. Steam version has achievements if you care for those. Other than that i don't think there is any difference. Both Steam and RSSC buyers can play with each other no problem at all.

Yes there is one minor difference but it's just for convenience.

If you buy the RSSC version you obviously won't have the steam feature to "join friend". E.G you can open your Steam friend list in the in-game overlay and just rightclick your friend and click "Join game" and it will connect you to the server your friend is playing at. In RSSC version you will have to join your friends through invite though the social club client.

Also for Steam version steam has those playtime tracking features and screenshot sharing etc, which are the standard Steam features. If you have a good friend list on Steam then it's better to get the game on Steam imo.

If you're more of a community guy then buying games on Steam is the best option, because the software has a set of handy tools such as capturing screenshots, in-game Steam overlay, friendlist etc.

Otherwise you can go with RSSC, but honestly, there's no major difference because ultimately RS games will launch from their client regardless of which version you have.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
