Scammed for $40

[Zeblade]

Ever notice how things change? The change come slow. Just look, now games popping up left and right not finished yet you can BUY it and play as they develop it. Just read this MMO and others even in this thread people already have the mind set that an UNFINISHED product is ok. A bad launch is now the norm. Look how many dont care about their money. They dont expect anything for it.

You give them your money and take anything they give.. its ok because from EQ, DOC, WOW and so on they KNOW people will PAY anyway if the launch is bad. Just give them a few days or a prize and WOOT OMG BEST MMO EVER! Yet for other things in our life we EXPECT that product to be finished. This is by far one of the worst for me in the way of customer service.

You want to kiss up thats up to you. This is not there 1st time at this. Others have come and gone had good and bad experiences and here we are in 2013..do you know when the 1st mmo came out and its STILL ok to NOT be ready? Hey..if no one says anything..why change they PAY anyway.

Its a great game I feel sorry for those that have problems and come here and no SE to help. Help people read between the lines..they are upset they will say things not nice so let that go and help or dont post.

As for servers? The guy was talking unless I got it wrong ..his friends are on a server that is now LOCKED..NO ONE wants to start on another server where your friends are not there. Has nothing to do with "if they quit you gonna quit too?".. most likely yeah.. that was the reason you joined ..duh.

Last ..this is one very easy game. They made it way to easy to level. Its not hard.. fighting is a blast just to easy. Finial Fantasy has now changed way to much. They gave in to all the voices that wanted a easier game. You got it!

Probably the best thing I have ever heard is:

If you aren't willing to sit through the growing pains of an MMO, this includes, bugs, errors, log in issues, anything that's not a "smooth" game play, then either you can do 2 things.

1. Don't play MMO's on launches until 2-3 months after.

2. Begin playing in beta phases understanding what exactly to expect before "launch day".

Expecting bugs here and there is all good. Not being able to create a character on worlds where your friends can play just fine is unheard of as far as I know. That is NOT something that people should be okay with just because the game recently launched. I love this game, but all these white knights are really starting to annoy me. My boyfriend is still, nearly two weeks since launch, unable to create a character on the world I'm on, simply because he choose not to play during beta 4. That is NOT acceptable anymore.

ya u can't get a refund if u bought a hardcopy it's bs

[Himea]

It should be noted that it says in the TOS they reserve the right to withhold access without explanation. It's not a scam, you agreed to it when you registered your game code. If you didn't register the code, then it's refundable.

[diecast]

why do you think you deserve a refund because you can't play on a certain server. I don's see how that's a scam, that's like going to an amusement park and getting mad because the ride your friends are on is full and you have to wait for the next one then demanding a refund. You can play the game as intended. There were issues last week, issues have been fixed for the majority of players.
