...absolutely no reason to think you're entitled to anything. No apologies, no future support (even though you cry babies still get that). . . Some people even think they deserve their money back. News flash - software is sold "as is."
With future support you mean answering to silly little customer wishes like patches? To... I don′t know... make the game actually run on my PC? So customers can actually USE the bloody product they just bought?
Hell, if anyone ever gave me an excuse for pirating games... you just did! Thank you!
As I understand it now, software is not like any other product. If I buy a car, a DVD player, a computer or a watch and this product is flawed an refuses to work I have the legal right to go back to the seller and get the bloody thing fixed. You know, to make it work and to give me the good feeling that I not just got scammed.
But not software, no Sir! Because software is
different. It is not only, unlike a car or a watch, immaterial - it is sold
"as is"! It does not have to function or to be more than a pretty expensive mini frisbee (only if sold on DVD of yourse), because it is sold
"as is"!
But it refuses to work! The picture is flickering so hard, even my blind cat got epileptic seizures!
Yes, it is flickerin, but it was sold "as is", son!!But it made my PC explode and the explosion killed my hamster!
Sold "as is" my son, sold "as is"...But the software uploaded itself to a predator drone, destroyed my house, killed a whole bunch of christian boyscouts and delared war to humanity!
Dammit, will you never get the meaning of "as is", stupid little customer?!?!?!But in inversion of the argument I could say that, since software is subject to laws much different than traditional products, we can assume that the legal and moral ties are are less strong as well.
Thank you very much. Armed with your argument I might pirate the next Crytek product with good mood and light heard just as "it is".
Lol that cat part of your post made me laugh so hard
