Why does everyone act like they need compensation for fucking everything? When you make any purchase, you're making a gamble that it'll be good, that it'll be supported for a fair amount of time, and that it'll be worth your money, but none of these are sure guarantees to you as a customer. You're just being promised a game. Your "compensation" is the fact that you got to play and enjoy the content long before anyone else who refused to pay up for it.

Wonder if these people request to be partially reimbursed when a game they bought drops in price a year or so after release.

They had that Season Pass on sale 2 weeks agp on Xbox. I'd be super pissed if I bought it.

They're right though, they deserve to be reimbursed somehow. This isnt like a GOTY edition where its 60 for the game and season pass

Is it shit like exclusive maps or whatever?

I always felt like putting maps behind a paywall is retarded, since you're splitting up the playerbase to those who can play the new map and those who can't.

I mean, awesomenauts is terrible, I wanted my money back too and I got it from a humble bundle.
League's situation is shit. They really should be refunding IP up to a cap or something, because it's absolutely ludicrous to take away an incredibly massive IP sink, something that people could have bought dozens of champs with, then throwing it away with no recompense. It's silly. Really really silly.
doom's DLC is just the standard though, multiplayer for shit games has it's DLC go free all the time. duke nukem forever's multiplayer DLC is free to access now.

>>384749451
I tend to agree with this in a case like this where people could have very likely bought the season pass recently (though frankly if you buy a season pass you deserve this and worse).
It's one thing if we're talking about content that's been out for over a year, but if you just spent $20+ on something and then the next week it's announced that it's free I think you're justified to some kind of reimbursement.

Obviously everyone in this scenario is in the wrong, the customer for supporting bad corporate habits and the company for doing this so recently after the content's release (assuming there's NO attempt at reconciliation).

Bethesda isn't required to pay people back for buying the season pass after making it free. At the same time, people also don't have to buy the season pass, and they don't have to buy DOOM, or buy any of Bethesda's future games.
But they will, and Bethesda knows this. Bethesda could call their fans a bunch of retarded piss-swilling cousin-fucking faggots and they'd all get mad, but they'll happily buy TES VI when it comes out and thank Todd when it's a buggy, unplayable, sub-20 fps mess with an abysmal story and dated graphics and gutted lore, and they'll clamor to preorder it and buy the season pass before the trailer's finished.
>>
It depends. Was any content from the season pass released before it became free?

Buying something for full price and then wanting money back when it goes on sale is different than buying something for full price before it releases, and then when it does release it's free.
>>
>>384749321
Because I'm living in a country that taxes my every purchase, that makes me entitled to certain rights and protections, you fucking cuckold. Including making sure that whatever I spend my finances on is not a fucking gamble and I can be adequately compensated if I am not satisfied with the service or a product. Where the fuck do you live to spout this kind of spiel? Middle-east? Russia?
>>
>>384752571
thanks bethesda. mmmm, at least I can mod your games. I don't care if they're actually trash, I can hide it with shitty filters and horrendous sex mods.

People are retarded. Season pass owners keep all dlc unlocks, people who dont have it have to unlock everything through a challenge system.

>>384752783
When you buy a game you're paying for it as it is, in its existing state, with nothing being promised to you other than "it's a game". If the game goes on sale, you're not obligated to get the money back. If it goes free, you're not obligated to get the money back. Is it in good taste for a company to compensate you? Fuck yeah, more companies should do it, especially if it's a recent purchase. But they don't actually have to give you anything, not unless they explicitly said "we are going to compensate you if things change in the future". If making sure you're not "gambling" is a big deal, and you don't know if you'll be adequately compensated or not, then don't buy the fucking product. It's as simple as that.

When you buy a "new car", you're being promised well, a new fucking car. If it's not, then you should be guaranteed your money back.

When you buy a new game, you're not being promised anything except a "good game", and if it's not good then you, at least under Steam, have the option to refund it for full price. Nothing more than that. You're not being promised compensation for any future changes. You're paying for just the game, and its perceived high quality. If you don't want to take such a risk then don't buy it.

>You don't get compensation when something goes on sale you bought at full price
Wrong, many franchise stores offer price protection against sales for up to a month.

Just because it's at the seller's discretion doesn't mean consumers shouldn't complain when they think they've been short changed.
>>
>>384753836
>being so retarded you think you have to be entitled to things you weren't even paying for
You deserve no compensation, but your low intelligence indicates you sure as hell deserved to get cucked out of your money. I'm not saying companies don't do bad shit, but you clearly forget your role as a customer. You pay for a product, and the company gives it to you. Anything and everything else is a kindness, but not a guarantee.
>>
>>384753515
Except that a videogame is not a car and especially a videogame which is subject to intellectual property laws as well. Your word salad is essentially meaningless.
>>
>>384754279
To be fair the runes didn't really add any serious depth to the game. It was generally agreed that they were just a cheap way of trying to add an artificial "depth" through pregame statboosts so Rito could force you to spend more IP/RP on pages and the like. They'll still exist after the update but they'll be in the form of more specific buffs you can pick before the game starts, like the masteries.

Not how it works, unless you bought it yesterday. You had it at the release price. The new price is $0. You made a bad purchase, deal with it.

There is no smart solution when it comes out of nowhere. Either you buy DLC and sometimes you get shafted or you don't buy any DLC and miss out on content you could have had. Even if you accept that you may get shafted and that you're taking a risk, you're still losing either way and companies win because there's nothing preventing them from exploiting this at all.
>>
>>384756473
That can go both ways though. If you bought runes a year ago, you got a year worth of runes while everyone else didn't. The fact that you had that gameplay advantage for so long over those who didn't kind of pays for itself

But I do agree, Riot, especially fucking Riot, should at least give us some IP for it.
>>
>>384756715
they could at the least give you enough for 1-2 7200 character

>>384749451
Fuck you, you thought it was worth the price you paid at the time. If this was how it worked there'd be no point in price drops, since you could just buy something and ask for money whenever it gets cheaper.
>Create product
>Sell at X price
>Those who think it is worth X will pay X
>Sales slow down, so change price to Y
>More people buy it
this is how it works.
>>
If you bought the season pass within 30 days it should be refunnded, fairly.

Any longer, no.

Isn't the dlc just stuff for that horrid multiplayer?

Anytime I ever purchased multiplayer DLC and then that DLC later went free, I was thrilled because that meant there was generally an influx of players to populate servers.
