[quote who="mewz" reply="5" id="2135393"] So if you ask me it would be fair to hear apology and those who preordered should at least get download same time as beta testers. I think it would be honest and fair, at least what can be done.[/quote] Isn't it what has been said in post #2 of this thread http://forums.demigodthegame.com/345838/page/1/#2134484 ? [quote] Its about damn customer respect and fairness to guy who buys your product

[quote]You miss the basic principles of business here. Stardock affiliated with gamestop by giving them copies to sell where money is shared by agreement, therefore they are partners and affiliates.[/quote] Well, I don't know how selling games works. But I don't think that Stardock GIVES copies to sell. It would make more sense that gamestop BUYS copies to resell them after.

[quote]I was talking about the gamestop guy post, wasnt that obvious?[/quote] No, since Frogboy has clearly stated in post #139: [quote]I also know that Gamestop asked to sell the game early and we said no and in response they cut their order by 2/3'rds.[/quote] But, I know, I am from France and I could sometimes misunderstand what is posted and to which part of a big quote you were responding.

BTW, have you read posts #120, #139 and #134 from frogboy (who is the CEO of Stardock) in that thread. It looks like at one level, Gamestop knew that the street date was 4/14 but somehow that information didn't make in their information system. [quote]they are partners and we are CUSTOMERS.[/quote] Well, Frogboy stated that [quote]But I can assure you we did everything humanly possible with our partners at Take 2 (who's distributing it) to ensure that the all sellers of the ga

[quote]Obviously not, we take the slap on the face and get insulted[/quote] Are you asking for Stardock to call back all its employees in order to process pending preorders, sending e-mail and assuring that game can be correctly downloaded during the Easter week end? Is it Stardock's fault is something got screwed just before a weekend when Stardock is only open at business hours from monday to friday?

[quote]Mr. Banfield, as a customer, honnestly I do not care about the whos, the whats, etc. I just see that in the end, the game I pre-ordered (both to play early AND support you on this fantastic game) via Digital download is already available elsewhere. I feel screwed up and cheated. As I said, this was my 1st, and will be my only, pre-order from you. [/quote] So even if Gamestop is screwing things, you think it is normal to blame Stardock. BTW, when did you

I really start thinking that the rationale behind GOO is to gives various advantages to the publisher in order that they choose a DRM system that is convenient to the end user.

[quote]100% Agree. It boggles the mind that the gaming industry thinks it should be entitled a cut of the secondary market when almost no other market has its hand in those transactions either.[/quote] But in those cases, you get directly the good. With digital distribution, you need to be able the game whose serial id you have got. And as digital distribution is involved, somebody has to pay for support (in case of problem to install or start the game) and bandwith for
