Scammed for $40

[Yoshihito]

This is a pretty dumb statement - almost everyone plays an mmo to play with their RL friends. That's asinine and retarded that somebody would say "ah forget about it make some new friends"

Yours is a pretty dumb statement. I don't play online games to play with RL friends. I play them to get away from RL. Sometimes I play with RL friends but that's not why I play them.

People acting like 7 servers are open and the other 20 are closed, I understand you want to play with your existing friends but you can't choose a different server and get some new online friends after all it is a MMO that you play with others just not your friends.

no its more like people are over reacting when they get a common MMO error and instantly think there purchase was a scam and think they are entitled for a refund.

Okay, curiosity has me now. 1. Did the friends play during beta? in which case you lose for being the last guy to the party. or 2. Were you just the last guy to the party and everyone else was there on time? it's not a scam that you were too slow to make a character on a given server. A server isn't an infinite space that just goes on and on and on. Hate to break it to ya, but there is a limit to how many people can be on a given server (Not even considering the amount of concurrent connections to said server). So, you have two options at the end. 1. Convince all of them to go to an open server and play together there. 2. don't play, 15 of your friends won't miss you in the long run, and we have one less idiot we have to put up with. /endrant

I only purchased this game to play with my friend.

That is the only reason I have purchased this game.

I cannot play with my friend. They even stated, in the creation menu, to make sure you select the same server.

I don't desire to make new "virtual friends".

You are terrible, should feel terrible, and should immolate your modem so as to prevent yourself from spreading your contagious fanboyism to other people.

Yea I'm sure I'll lose a lot of sleep over it...

I really feel like you're missing the point here.

You are implying that people are being unreasonable over the fact that they cannot play with friends. Can't even make a character on servers where there friends are.

Saying that we should simply shrug it off and play on other servers when the entire point was to play with our friends is completely unreasonable on your part.

Perhaps you don't have friends. Regardless you should immolate your router.

People should not what they are getting into when they buy an MMO in the first few weeks. If everyone got a refund then there would be no MMOs.

What annoys me is that people claim that it's a "Scam". The word "Scam" is used far too much.

Scammed means for example you went to ebay, bought a 50" screen top end tv, but when delivery arrives you get a poster of said tv and you paid 1100$ for it.
Buying a product hardcopy and getting your hardcopy of said product is not a scam. Also if youat least know where forums are and seen lodestone you would of been informed that its a known issue they are working on.

So if your RL friends decide they don't want to play anymore that mean you going to quit too?

Actually for many people that probably is the case. For many of us, it's playing with a particular group of people that's the main consideration, the particular game we're playing is a secondary issue - I know in my case I have quit other games because the people I was playing with have quit, only for us to meet up again later on in another MMO. And if we can't play a particular MMO together, we'll just wait for the next one.
