Well I submitted for my refund.

Absolutely disgusted by Sony support for providing misinformation and for Double Fine that hasn't done anything to help as Sony fucks up the launch of this game.

I was so excited to play this game and now I am not at all. I am upset, sad and angry.

I don't want to revisit this wonderful game with this awful experience hanging over my head.

I'll buy it on Steam in the future and play it at some point.

Thanks Sony and Double Fine for ruining something I've waited for so long.

I don't believe you.

I'll only believe you when you stop posting about it.

Then I'll know you've truly walked away.

All I want to do is read impressions and people's thoughts on the game and it's buried in your posts about a f&*$ing theme.

Just caught up on the last few pages of this thread. It's hard for me to wrap my head around being so passionate about a game that you would not play it because of something unrelated to the actual game.

Same.

The creator of an OT for a game returning the game after a day?...

GAF has been host to some good meltdowns over the years.

Man how strict is The Right Way trophy? I stuck it on tank controls before even pushing the d pad, but I've accidentally touched the touch screen and activated point and click and so i'd reload the save.

Is it just enough to have tank controls on? Or will I have to be super paranoid about touching the screen the whole game.

It's an even more difficult proposition when you have your hand on the mouse the entire time you are playing.

I've misclicked just a few too many times, plus the PNC controls are just too convenient. I actually never would have solved one of the earlier puzzles without them.

That's some... Amazing rage.

You should just take a day off. Go to sleep. Impulsive decisions like that never goes well.

It's all due to a pre-order theme too :/

I do somewhat agree with him about the background renders. Their quality versus the updated quality of some of the character models is very jarring to look at. It just comes across as lazy.

It's still a great game though and I'm enjoying it. It just does have that slapped together feel about it.

I can buy it again if I like. I'm not giving Sony and Double Fine money until it is worked out.

^ Keep in mind the guy saying this has already been compensated for it. He got Grim Fandango for less than the rest of us.

The meltdown is a fun distraction at this point.

It sure would be nice if this thread wasn't ruined by PSN nonsense. This is why we keep PC tech threads separate from OTs.

Grim Fandango is still pretty rad, BTW.

I get what you mean.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the game in anyway, which is great! Just raging over a delivery system.

Did someone really get on the phone with Sony over a theme? I can imagine his story being told, as legend, amongst the other CSRs over there.

Manager said it would be provided due to the preorder issues. Never actually happened. Returned with the credit they provided. Playing using original discs now.

So I find out... my PSN account was hijacked someone deactivated my devices, added their own. I can't run grim fandango because my PS4 is deactivated. I called Sony support and was told since I deactivated all of my devices they can't help me. I did not deactivate anything on my account, I haven't been on PSN in a long time either. I tried chat, calling no one will remove the strangers PS4 as the primary on my account. They keep telling me to wait 6 months.

Whom I contact now?

Someone give me a clear objective view on what the fuck is going on with this because my brief perusal of this thread seems to indicate some massive fuck up happened somewhere.

Preorders unlocked a day late unless you redownloaded and knew how to do it

Preorders were removed without warning and people got screwed out of the theme and preload

Other issues regarding downloads and preloads

A big mess for Sony and Double Fine IMO. I got a refund. Not rewarding this bullshit.

It's the best theme that will be ever released on PS4, forever exclusive to the elite few who now possess it.
actually I'm partial to the clean 25th anniversary one

Didn't get my PM eh?

You're just pathetic at this point feeding off of my issue you find hilarious.

Edit: Zero please stop sending me PMs flaunting your theme.

I understand the frustration. I mean I couldnt figure out how to download the game last night on my ps4 (I preordered but forgot to preload) and I would have been more frustrated if I had not planned on playing the Vita version anyway.

But anyway are there any good hint guides out there that won't flat out give me the answer but can help point me in a direcrion when im stuck?
