A heartwarming initiative on Reddit titled "Can't afford the game? Let me help" has ignited a wave of generosity among gaming enthusiasts. Initiated by user verdantsf, the campaign was born out of a desire to pay forward the kindness they experienced during their own tough times. verdantsf kicked off the effort by gifting five copies of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 to fellow users, and due to an overwhelming response, they followed up with another five copies. In total, the games distributed were worth approximately $600.

The movement swiftly gained momentum, inspiring around 30 more individuals to purchase copies for those unable to buy the game themselves. Warhorse Studios, noticing the incredible outpouring of support, stepped in by gifting verdantsf a collector’s edition of KCD2 and replenishing their stock to enable further giveaways.
After receiving five additional copies from Warhorse, the third batch was distributed. "The developers are amazing. Thank you for the collector’s edition!" verdantsf expressed their gratitude, also commending the subreddit moderators for nurturing such a positive community.
Reflecting on the initiative, verdantsf remarked, "It's incredible to see so many community members coming together to support each other during challenging times. A big thank you to the 30 people who bought KCD2 for others. Teamwork truly makes the dream work!"
Assuming each participant purchased one copy for someone else, it’s estimated that over $2,000 was collectively spent on buying and gifting Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. This remarkable act of community spirit, enhanced by Warhorse Studios’ generous contribution, underscores the profound impact of goodwill within the gaming community—a rare but truly heartening occurrence.
