Gifting of free/pay-what-you-want games #104

Open DrSkipper opened 9 years ago

DrSkipper commented 9 years ago

I really like the flow for gifting game purchases, but it seems like this isn't available for free/pay-what-you-want games. I'd like to be able to gift one of these games through the normal flow so that the person I'm gifting to can get their own download url. Might seem like an odd request since these games can be downloaded for free, but I (and the people I'm gifting to) generally do prefer to pay for them.

:+1: Also as sometimes developers can change their mind on pricing or things might go pay what you want temporarily, it'd be nice to do that. (If nothing else so someone can have a game in their library even if it suddenly costs money, although that may be a different issue entirely...)

Just wanted to comment on this again and note that it really is like at least once a week that I run into this situation and don't know what to do.
