And i hate people that think they can sue everyone. (Are you American????)
Yes. The state I live in has two laws in the book to protect customers that are stuck with buggy products so they can get a refund IF the developer/publisher won't allow a refund.
Thank you for understanding where I'm coming form. I don't put much of the blame on Larian Studios'. Odds are CDV wouldn't pay them the extra cash to work out the remaining bugs in their game. If CDV won't honor my state laws and provide me with a refund then yes I will file a suit against them.
Well, we have such laws here in Germany, too.
The point is, when I want to get a refund from an american company, I don't think I'll ever get one.
Also, I'd have a problem with a lawsuit : Those who have the money for good lawyers always win.
I fear that this is the case in any country.
If I would try to make a lawsuit (right word ?) against EA, for example, it could take years and years, because they have the money and could simply wait until mine runs out.
If I make one against a *small* publisher it's more likely to get my money back.
But the worst thing is that we here in Germany get U.S. license instructions with software, although the companies should at least translate them and make them compatibble to German Law. But no, I've read so many software licenses where everything is not only in English, but applies to U.S. law, although the software is sold here in Germany, and therefore German Law must be applied.
I don't think I have a chance.
You know I wasn't even going to bother to reply to this post since it has NOTHING to do with my oringal post. But, after reading it a few times I've gotten the impression that the poster is just jealous that I have more options to get a refund on buggy software then he does.
As I said above : I don't think that I'd have a chance.
