As of this initial post, I haven’t been able to confirm that. Others state that this is an issue for anyone activating a code acquired somewhere other than Steam itself, and isn’t limited to Green Man Gaming. A quick search for the issue on Google returns a quite a few similar reports, most of them claiming to have purchased the game from Green Man Gaming.

I personally purchased a copy of DmC from Green Man Gaming - a site that buys and trades download codes for Steam games - and have run into this same issue. Attempting to do so, however, returns an error message claiming the game is missing its executable (duh). Once the download completes, the game appears in the user’s library looking ready to play just like any other title. The comically puny size of the download is an immediate red flag.

NeoGAF and various other forums are seeing a flood of reports from users who are able to activate their keys and complete a 74MB download, instead of the standard 9GB listed under Steam’s system requirements for the game. Specifically, those that purchased the game from Green Man Gaming and other retailers providing unlock codes for the game are unable to download and install the game. Users that purchased the PC version of DmC: Devil May Cry anywhere but directly from Steam this week are running into a snag.
