paladin181: GOG support is taking the "if we ignore the problem, it will go away" approach. They suck pretty bad right now.
I think they're going so slow hoping people will play the game and like it and decide they don't want a refund. People need to start charge-back procedures with their banks for fraud on the refund policy. That might wake them the fuck up.
Isn't there a limit on how late you can do this?
Anyway, I agree. They have an automated way of taking money, but not giving it back? You'd think by now they would've tried to do something to take away the damage. Paying employees to give money back to customers in the middle of a lawsuit isn't particularly smart. Meanwhile, the support staff have seemingly disappeared. How many weeks has it been? Did everyone who bought cyberpunk buy it from GOG instead of Steam? You'd think, by now, if the majority of the reason for delay was cyberpunk refund requests, they'd be able to sort through these things on autopilot. You'd think that they'd have semi-automated responses available in notepad for copy and paste to make their lives easier in answering tickets more effeciently, 'cause surely they want those tickets to go away as fast as possible.
No, i imagine support staff are doing other jobs around the office to keep them away from the ticket trackers, hoping that they can get an update or two out that placates customers into canceling the refund request.
I noticed, technically, they could also deny most requests: once you download that installer (which they have record of) they're not obligated to approve, anymore. They curiously aren't taking this route, either. My guess is, media fallout. They have to be simply buying time.
