I can't with some of the people on this site.

Haha, bunch of hypocritical fanboy weirdos lmao.

Gone on for years about the moral standing ground of renting games and not supporting studios etc

And then, because they show their clear fanboyism they want to not even contribute to the funds a studio may receive from gamepass because they are pulling shady shit.

The funny part is, it's all the people you expect to be saying they will and want to do this.

I am just glad that I make enough money that I don't have to waste my personal time doing this shit.

And it has nothing to do with MS its about the studios. If you think this trick is not affecting the money the studios would get in some way then you literally have no business mind.

 

[Topher]

I actually would care about ubisoft and whoever.

Look, how my morale compass works is pay for what you use.

If i went to a restaurant and ate almost the whole meal then asked for my money back...damn.

And then the restaurant can say no. Microsoft should probably do the same thing here, but they don't so blame them. Either way, drop the "it's not about MS" act. No one is buying it.

We've pointed it out before. Either go for deals nonstop and admit that going for value is fine for the consumer, or lecture everyone about devaluation, supporting studios and buy everything full price. But no one does that. They go for deals for themselves, but lecture everyone else about devaluing or using a subscription. Hypocrisy, straight out of the dictionary. But nobody cares, laugh emoji, whatever. Only thing to do is just remember the next time you're being gaslit about the moral failings of getting a good deal, that they're completely full of it and ignore it.

Refundpass > Regionpass

Morally superior and saves you more money

Honestly that is far worse than this. Abusing regional pricing, if/when it gets shut down results in people in poorer countries getting screwed on price.
This gets shut down - you have to pay for your entire month even if you cancel early - which most of us would have assumed is what was going to happen anyway.

I remember the BG3 thread in particular how certain people were using VPN to nab the XBOX version for developing world prices.

Holy shit the Egypt trick worked. Gonna buy on PC as well just to support properly but 12 pounds for the xbox digital deluxe is crazy. :/

Refundpass > Regionpass

And you're not raising prices for our third world struggling brethren.

Best choice.

It's like people don't get what being a hypocrite is. I've never really seen Dench lecture people for using GP, subscribing, buying things on sale. In this thread, he's lecturing people for being hypocrites, not for using an exploit. I think adamsapple used that VPN trick but he has never lectured anyone either, and openly talks about GP, Gamefly, sales, rewards points, Gold conversion to GP. I tried to use the exploit but it was too much trouble and I bailed on it, but I use GP and rewards and take a lot of shit for it from people who claim I never buy anything and I'm the death of the industry for devaluing games. These are things people have hounded people on for literally years, not once or twice. Over and over for years. What's hypocritical is someone that is doing that for literally years, over and over, picking fights with people and lecturing them about how little they support developers while doing the exploits for themselves. Why do you feel the need to defend these people when all we're pointing out is the hypocrisy? If you're fine getting deals and exploits, then maybe stop lecturing everyone else nonstop when you don't have a leg to stand on. That's literally all he's saying.

I get the impression he needs no excuse to rage at 'sony fans', seems to have a real bee in his bonnet about them.

Other day was upset because "Sony fans" were celebrating the Sony shipments to date figure. Weird.

He's comparing this specific "exploit" to piracy and preaching about how it affects the studio. Sounds like lecturing to me. If he wants to highlight hypocrites then he should quote them.

 

[DenchDeckard]

And then the restaurant can say no. Microsoft should probably do the same thing here, but they don't so blame them. Either way, drop the "it's not about MS" act. No one is buying it.

Ok. Its definitely MSs fault. No one else's. I agree they should fix this but I still hold it to the morale of the user.

Exactly. Im more fed up with the sheer hypocrisy on here lately over anything else.

Keep the same energy across the board. You can't attack people for getting a good deal and then champion shit like this.

Absolute joke.

Well like I said, I've pointed it out before and it didn't do a thing. I'd suggest just ignoring it. It actually really decreases the temperature in general when you figure out its just gaslighting and none of what they're lecturing about really is even true. It's just what they do to pass the time. It is what it is.

You're on fire in here. Everyone will ignore you but this is where I am at.

What's so funny about this is i bought balders gate 3 on steam for full price and then bought the xbox version to play across multiple devices with cloud saves.

Try harder next time

What cracks me up is they talk about fanboyism and warring and they are too stupid to notice they are doing all of this as warring against MS.

Too funny.

But you are right. Its better to just laugh at them and ignore pretty much everything they say. Im sure they feel the same way about me and that's fine.

 

[Topher]

So you bought two copies of the game for the convenience of playing across multiple devices and used a regional exploit to get that second copy for "12 pounds". Is this correct?

 

[DenchDeckard]

What are ypu even trying to accomplish here?

That i buy games across multiple platforms and also pay for a subscription service and don't steal games or get refunds on services or games that I have played?

You come in here lecturing Ass of Can Whooping about an exploit when you yourself used an exploit to buy BG3 for £12.

Leveraging a refund policy to your benefit is no different than leveraging the tax code to your benefit. Its legal and within policy.

Guess which is likely more damaging- a few people refunding GP? Or mega corps leveraging tax code to reduce their tax bills by billions?

I wouldn't white knight for a mega corp, especially one who likes to cut jobs almost quarterly while CEO made $79 million in total compensation last year alone.

You was at a conference last week and they were giving GamePass out like candy or something? Microsoft were partners at the event.

Hardly seems like this exploit, which I'm sure Microsoft is aware of, is even something to care about. They don't care. Why do you.

Im not lecturing can of ass. I love him. He's above the law. Lol

And the fact you can not make a morale difference between someone fully refunding a service that allows them to play games vs someone buying a game at full price and an additional copy at a cheaper price is unreal.

Got me i guess.

 

[cireza]

And then the restaurant can say no. Microsoft should probably do the same thing here, but they don't so blame them. Either way, drop the "it's not about MS" act. No one is buying it.

Come on, this is an excuse, nothing else.

If a product offers good value for you, the fact that you can abuse a system to get it for free doesn't mean you have to do it. This is also about how you behave as an adult and how you consider the people that provide the product you use.

If someone was never complaining about you being a total jerk to him, you would be a total jerk all the time ?

Note : abusing region prices was total shit as well.

At least I support the gaming industry my dude. And I am no where near on the same fanboyism level as these Sony few that won't sniff at another platform.

Proper odd bods

What. I only mentioned Sony fans today because it doesn't take a genius to see who is posting in this thread in support of this. And we know why some of the comments are being said. Sony fans warring against MS and nothing else.


Nope. Its apart of my gamepass sub that I pay for and not refund.

Look, if people don't have morales then that's fine for them I guess. Not for me.

I personally don't put this far from pirating tbh. That's my opinion.

I actually would care about ubisoft and whoever.

Look, how my morale compass works is pay for what you use.

If i went to a restaurant and ate almost the whole meal then asked for my money back...damn.

It's funny you are talking about fanboyism.

• Fucking LOL at "At least I support the industry my dude". You really think Game Pass is the best way to support the fucking devs? Buy their game and stfu if you are really all about the devs and supporting them.
• "Sony fanboys that won't sniff at another platform" I play on everything, and in reference to what is obviously your beloved choice of console I have played on Xbox since Christmas 2001 and owned every single Xbox besides the 360 E (OG, OG 360, 360S, XBO, XBO S, XBO X, XBSX, XBSS) with some being bought multiple times.
• "I'm glad I make enough money" so now you've resorted to the WELL IM JUST GLAD IM NOT POOR LIKE ALL THESE PEOPLE.
• You really just compared cancelling a subscription and getting a refund that Microsoft openly gives you the option for to piracy? Fucking hell
• You shit on people that are cancelling and getting their money back but then backtrack to say that it's Microsoft's fault and not the people you were just shitting on. The only "absolute joke" is you mate.

Also the word you appear to be looking for over and over and over again is moral/morals not morale/morales.

If you bought that second copy using legit means then there wouldn't be a problem. You didn't. Stop pretending you did.

Im not pretending I did. Why are you lot trying to turn this on me.

I have bought balders gate 3 twice. Once at full price and once cheaper.

I could have waited and bought it on sale but I thought I would try it as it was on here.

Now I have users trying to use it against me for people getting a full refund on something.

Cmon guys, you can't be real.
