Hmm, If I have a friend who likes the game am I able to give him my key so he can play the full version and still be able to keep my Kenshi?
Edit: By the way, he probably won't buy it due to bad economy and stuff.

Really? Can't buy another copy of the game? Cause "sharing" is like giving the middle finger to the developer. It's cuts into their profits. Heck, I'm pretty sure it's illegal!

He and I can't afford a copy though otherwise we wouldn't have this problem. I understand where you are coming from. And yeah I understand it cuts into his profits though I don't think its illegal?

yeah, it probably is illegal.
no, i don't think you can do that.
i'm gonna be very mean and say that if your friend can't find 10€ then maybe he shouldn't be wasting time playing games..

The key you bought is meant for you and only you as with any type of video game (retail or not). You can gift it away if you want to but then you aren't allowed to use it anymore.
Sharing a key is illegal and considered stealing/pirating.
If the dev finds a key being shared, it will be blacklisted forever, meaning no more updates or fresh installs.
If your friend can't buy a key, maybe you could buy one for him? Make him repay you 1$ per week, it would take less than 2 months to pay off the price.

As leet said, it is completely illegal. It won't stop you from doing it but just know deep down in that little heart that you are breaking the law and stealing something from someone who has put their own time and effort into creating something for your pleasure.
Also, should chris happen to have a reference somewhere between your cd-key and your forum account name he could quite easily just block it from updates as Mr Leet said.
Look around and you will find a way to get $10. Don't smoke, don't drink (if applicable) cut out the smallest amount of what you eat per day/week and save it up. If you are unable to do that because you are on the verge of starving then gaming is not the hobby for you. There is no excuse for theft of a game this cheap, even for the hardcore pirates.
