It's still a beta key for a F2P game, regardless of beta period.
It's still a beta key for a F2P game, regardless of beta period.
And that makes paying for it stupid? What if the League of Legends developers announced LoL 2, which will also be F2P, and that closed beta invites are making the rounds? There are people who play LoL and nothing but, and they'd gladly pay stupid amounts of money to get into a LoL 2 closed beta, because they'll get their money's worth. The way I see it, F2P has nothing to do with it, and value has everything to do with it. It's about getting a head start, about learning the ins and outs before everyone else, and having fun playing a new game that they would otherwise have to wait for.
If there are people out there who value those aspects of getting into a beta for a F2P game, power to them. Hell, they'll probably get more value out of that purchase than I do with my frivolous Steam purchases of games that I don't get around to playing.
EDIT: I'm not trying to rile anybody up here, or be antagonistic. I'm just responding to "utter retardation" part of Rauten's post, because ever since I started playing SC2, I know what it's like to play a single game and nothing else, and I understand what these Dota 2 buyers are paying for. I know that if I had the chance to pay, say, $10 for a few-months long beta of SC2: Heart of the Swarm, I'd probably pay for it, and still buy the expansion, too. If I play it half as much as I do SC2 now, it'd be money well spent.

Ok finally I got a good game: Left 4 Dead 2. I already have it so who wants it? I would like to trade for a small game. Here's my wishlist: http://steamcommunity.com/id/tquinta/wishlist couple of cheap games there. Any offers are welcome! I also have Runaway 2 to throw in.
@sopabuena, I saw you have InMomentum in your wishlist. The devs are currently running a Groupees deal which is a Steam code for it + some bonus if they hit their target (which seems very unlikely).
It's PWYW + 20% goes to Child's Play http://groupees.net/arrow
In addition to my previous post, I've now got Hacker Evolution Untold and Xeno Clash should anyone want them, as well as -50% on Shadowgrounds. Any offers considered.
Thanks! Will check it out.
I've got:
Various coupons (e.g. -50% Rockstar, can be used on LA Noire)
Some coal
Humble Indie Bundle 3
If anyone's interested, make me an offer, I suppose! http://steamcommunity.com/id/Krauthammer/
