I just tried to refund and was cut off too. They are not friendly at all. I used similar arguments like you did and was denied.
Kaz's vision must be holier than even the Holy Grail, I can't explain that free pass he gets no matter what!I dont care about the decisions, that have been made at polyphony. I understand Kaz. It’s his vision.
I was mad first but I realized, that I have already 110 carsand most of them hasn't beed used and experienced so far.
I used to grind a lot on fischermans ranch and now as I recall myself during that time I think that I was pathetic. It’s a relief, no more grinding, I play for fun.
We need more events to use cars that we own. That's the only problem. Hopefully it'll change soon.
I've looked at their Purchasing License agreement and everything is under California law. I've down a little bit of research but I'm still at work so haven't gone full bore. This week I think I'll try to find some contracts cases in California and see if I can draft up a letter to send them.
What does this have to do with the customer support agent? You're just throwing a bunch of crap at him that's not his job to deal with.
Your first issue was resolved and you didn't say there were any other issues. I don't know what to tell you.
Well written, sums it up quite nicely. Lovely game destroyed by a bunch of greedy morons.
What has the PD team been doing since GT Sport? Actually what have they been doing since GT6? I get it, they worked on GT S. But really there should have been a team dedicated to GT7. We we got was graphics from ps4 era, cars from 6-7 years ago, 400 cars, still no crash damage, the crap goes on and on.
I think that's a pretty good viewpoint to have. I just wish they would come out and say what their plan for future events is instead of just saying to trust them. There's no reason for there to be mystery about what future events are going to be added.
I think you are puffing hard on the hopium pipe tbh. Everything they have done and said so far points in the other direction.
that's actually a really garbage viewpoint to have because i'm sure you can't name one game that isn't on mobile that requires microtransactions to progress through the game. saying wait for a random gamble mechanic you can do once a day is also quite laughable. very copium post you quoted
The mtx setup in sport was much different though. The cars were cheap enough and most of what was offered to buy with real money was grindable in an hour or so. The unicorns couldn’t be bought with real cash, so it was an honest kind of model that fits with what Kaz’s vision is advertised to be. GT7 is the exact opposite. IMO the intention is clear, and unless they change it the majority of us will suffer for it.
Not really, given that two months before GT Sports release he stated quite clearly that GT Sport would not have Microtransactions.

Neither title should have had them, and it's arguable that when the presence of them was accepted, and people bought them in GT Sport (because people most certainly did) the groundwork was laid for the more predatory approach we are seeing today. I will be honest, I am surprised at just how damn aggressive they are and how much Sony/PD/Kaz seems to have doubled down on them.
I just wonder who's responsible for all this.Not really, given that two months before GT Sports release he stated quite clearly that GT Sport would not have Microtransactions.
GT Sport Will Not Feature Any Microtransactions
With just over two months to go until GT Sport's release, Kazunori Yamauchi has revealed more on the game. Speaking at the PlayStation Experience event in Malaysia, the series creator confirmed GT Sport will not feature microtransactions. Originally questioned by Gema Show Indo, Kazunori Yamauchi

The buck stops with Kaz
In my view it's a combination of both Sony and PD, Jim Ryan at Sony has been quite clear in his drive for games as a service, which is pretty much shorthand for MTXs. however, Kaz has a high enough profile and tenure within both PD and Sony to have been able to push back on this, combined with a game design that is so clearly and intrinsically linked to promoting MTX's, and the open letter (I'm reluctant to call it an apology) doubling down on the nerf's to the game economy, and I don't see how Kaz (and by extension PD) couldn't have also been complicit.

I think that this is an example of lost in translation, and have always done so.
GT cafe is an interesting idea, but pretty bad implemented. Just one car for a 2 laps race and even you only have to place 3rd? Come on. Every entry should have been a championship with 3-5 events, and give me a car if a place first in all, like in old GT4. Car can be used for next championship and so on.
At this rate, maybe it'll end up becoming the worst game ever on metacritic. Surely it has to carry the record for the fastest dropping score.

I was watching a streamer with a 6-star ticket win a newer mini cooper. After that I was like wtf, this guy is super unlucky. He had a bunch of 3-4 star tickets like 10 of them, the most he got was 10k, not sure how many stars that ticket was tho. He wasn't into the GT games but he was taking the small rewards in stride. I would be livid. And he bought the anniversary edition too.
