Culture Shock In right to ask a refund

Copied from support:
Telltale's episodic games are a series of 2-4 hour, story-driven games that are released online on a regular schedule. The episodes usually have self-contained stories, but they're part of a greater, season-wide arc that becomes apparent as you play the episodes. As with a favorite TV show, the more you play, the more familiar you'll become with the characters and the overarching story.


series of 2-4 hour ? maybe next episode will take 6 hours to do ?

released online on a regular schedule ? Regular....Regular..... mean date ? or month ? maybe years ?

Yea game concept is good, but is that worth the 25$ ?

what you think about it ?

Myself i ask for a refund, cause they dont deliver it....

I think he's trying to establish what the schedule for future episodes is and fears that they won't happen.

Telltale, of course, has a first-class record of getting episodes out there. Of course, they don't present them every five minutes, in a sandbox, consisting entirely of Team Fortress bonuses, without puzzles, which many people seem to find a problem.

I could see an issue if they said episode two was being pushed pack two months.. but that is not the case.

Who cares?
Remember: If there is not delay in the episodes 3, 4 and 5, you will be able to finish this game as expected.

Spoilers!

Personally i have done a charge back on my credit card cause steam do not refund, i used the reason, product never deliver..... and it's true....

If you dont receive your paycheck, you will cry like a baby, me when i pay for something i whant it as espected, else put it in your ***

Even i dont have receive, dont know, maybe a email, sorry we have delay cause we made to much money to fast and so, are in vacancy, you know... will try to work on it in 2013...

So you guy really dont care, even if the game is finish on 2014 ?

@Doucet:
Obviously you are wrong. You received the first part of the game already, so asking the whole money back is wrong. Also, if the seller is in delay, you have to give a reasonable time for them to deliver. Maybe you could ask for a refund, if you did not receive all five episodes by end of August or September.

And about your paycheck example. Would you quit your job if you did not receive the paycheck on time. Do you think that you had the rights to do so?

Many games miss their deadlines. To be surprised, shocked, or outraged seems a little silly. They will release it when the team behind the game feels it is up par. This isn't an Electronic Arts sports game where they can just type up a different team roster and pump it out as 'new'.

But most games don't make you pay in advance and then not hit the monthly releease target that people paid for.

Pre-orders for new games are the same. When I bought this game I understood I would not get the whole product until months from now. I like getting bits and pieces of the finished product rolling out instead of waiting for the whole game to be done in Autumn.

Walking Dead Episode 1 release date - 25th April

Current date - 31st May

Good grief, I've gone for longer periods without food. Why are people acting like a couple of days over is a declaration of war on their consumer rights? We're talking about creative works here, you have to allow for some small compromise when it comes to the deadlines.

I am not ticked off, I would just like an "Expected date" announcement. I am in software development so if they say "The second week of x", I know they are hoping to have it down the last week of (x-1) but may take until week three of x. I would just like any news.

If there was a like button I'd hit it 100000 times.

just because i'll payd for something, and i whant service....

You also can charge fee when a compagnie make you wait on the line ....

But most people dont do it, and wait wait wait , and then..... hooo i lost my money.....

And yes if my boss dont pay me, i leave.... But you dont know that like you says (I've gone for longer periods without food) probably mean you dont work and dont know the real value of the money...

Doucet, I'm really hoping Steam takes the game away from you if you did a charge back on them. It is not really right to ask for a refund just because you are too impatient to wait a little bit on a single episode. Also I'm just going to assume English is not your first language because I'm having a hard time trying to follow anything you say.

Someone in some thread said that even if Episode Two is late, doesn't mean the others will be.

That would be a sight, Episode two released July 10th. Followed immediately by the already complete three, four, and five! :lol:
