I Tried Buying From G2A And Eneba... Who Is Better?

Main summary

Key takeaways

Product Review

Product Reviewed

Two marketplaces for random/discount Steam keys: G2A vs Eneba. The video tests “generosity”/value by buying multiple random keys.


Key Points: G2A (Unique Mentions)

Overall framing

  • The random key purchase is described as a “gambling” experience with an expected element of risk.
  • The creator bought several games (notably 3 in the main G2A segment).

Games tested on G2A

Killing Floor 2 (~$3.24 / $3.62 mentioned)

  • Pros
    • Lots of classes and weapons
    • Game is described as “pretty okay”
    • A co-op zombie horde shooter similar in feel to CoD Zombies
  • Cons / issues
    • Extremely large install size (~100GB)
    • Reload animation slows the character (“snail” effect), especially when playing alone
    • Felt dead: not many players online and limited friends to play with

Fashion Police Squad

  • Pros
    • Very fast, constantly moving
    • Weapon swapping is needed for different enemy types (adds variety)
    • Chaotic but fun
  • Cons / issues
    • Can become overwhelming when multiple enemy types stack together
  • User experience
    • The creator says this ended up being the one they played the most among the G2A picks

RollerCoaster Tycoon Deluxe

  • Pros
    • Classic park builder
    • Lots to do: rides/coasters, staff, ticket prices, food stalls
    • Easy to lose hours tweaking a park
  • Cons / issues
    • No major gameplay criticism
    • Main complaint was about recording resolution (“ancient resolution”), not the product itself

Expectation management / “scam” angle

  • The creator says they already felt like they were likely to be scammed, implying G2A caused at least one key/access problem.
  • This is explicitly tied to an “already got scammed” reaction after encountering large-download content issues.

Key Points: Eneba (Unique Mentions)

Overall framing

  • A random key attempt produced different outcomes, but the “main picks” were mostly less favorable.

Main games/purchases on Eneba

“Game of the Year” key

  • Outcome
    • The key appears problematic: the game wouldn’t start
  • Error behavior
    • Black screen for 1–2 seconds, then crashes
  • Support/effort
    • Fixes were attempted but failed
    • The creator found a Steam community post suggesting downloading “random files,” but skipped it (didn’t bother)

Second Eneba game

  • Outcome
    • The creator “couldn’t even confirm” the key and suspects it was a duplicate (“I already have this”)

Battle Shapers (~8 bucks mentioned)

  • Pros
    • Good gunplay and movement
    • Fast/smooth movement creates a “locked in” feeling
  • Cons / issues
    • Rogue-lite loop felt repetitive quickly
    • Upgrades weren’t exciting
    • Feels unfinished/undercooked around the edges
    • Visual/UI/characters evoke an Overwatch-like vibe (“Overwatch without the polish”)

Distance (purchased while buying another pack)

  • Outcome
    • Another duplicate (“I already have this”)

Citizen Sleeper

  • Pros
    • Interesting story/world
    • Gameplay is simple: mostly managing choices/resources/outcomes
  • Cons / issues
    • Very story-heavy with lots of reading
    • If you dislike that style, you won’t enjoy it
  • User experience anecdote
    • The creator missed that they could move the map until after finishing, yet still enjoyed it—suggesting they were able to have fun despite friction

Eneba takeaway

  • Eneba resulted in duplicates and games the creator disliked, plus at least one non-working purchase (crash/black screen issue).

Comparisons / Verdict Logic (G2A vs Eneba)

  • Explicit conclusion
    • The creator says Eneba “sold me” at first, implying some games were acceptable.
    • However, they ultimately report more duplicates and disliked games from Eneba, so they give the crown to G2A.
  • Caveat
    • Both platforms are treated as gambling, because the keys are random.

Pros / Cons (As Described in the Video)

G2A

  • Pros
    • At least one strong hit (Fashion Police Squad)
    • Generally enjoyable experiences
    • Variety across games
  • Cons
    • Large file size concern (Killing Floor 2 ~100GB)
    • Reload/solo-play annoyance
    • Low “player activity” feel
    • At least one problematic/scam-like key experience

Eneba

  • Pros
    • Some games seem interesting (Citizen Sleeper praised for vibe/story)
  • Cons
    • Multiple duplicates
    • At least one game that crashed/black screened with no successful troubleshooting
    • Battle Shapers felt unfinished and repetitive

Numerical / Price Details Mentioned

  • G2A
    • $3.24 and $3.62 mentioned
    • Also mentions €10.39 (for one or more keys)
  • Eneba
    • €8.11, 99 cents, and $8 (Battle Shapers)
  • Tech/size
    • Killing Floor 2 download size: ~100GB
  • Scoring
    • No formal star ratings or scores were given.

Overall Concise Verdict / Recommendation

Based on the creator’s random-key results across tested games, G2A is the better choice overall—mainly because Eneba produced more duplicates and at least one non-working/crashing key. That said, the video emphasizes that both are gambling, so expectations should be low.


Speaker Breakdown

  • Single main speaker: the creator provides all viewpoints—purchasing decisions, installation/launch issues, gameplay impressions, and the final comparison/crown decision.
