It is about the amount. It's a price of a large pizza, or a lunch at a mediocre restaurant. If you had to spend $300 I would agree that it is a fairly serious investment, but for $11-12, meh. It makes you look like a cheapskate that's all.
So it's throw-away money that doesn't matter? Why haven't YOU refunded him then?
I mean, unless it's not your job to pay someone for a product they didn't receive. Like it's not HIS job to pay for a product he didn't receive.
Oh, the entitlement generation is here
. He made a decision to buy the game early. He can't play and can't wait. Solution: don't get hyped, don't spend money you can't afford to lose, or get patient and wait a few days and see if the developers fix whatever the issues are. He damn well knows there are no refunds for software products. Your expectations are your problem.

Poor frustrated guy
Poor guy`s wife I would say.
and I'm sure if we took a look at your life, we'd all have a laugh at you and feel bad for the people in it.
And oh look a person from the idiot generation, who can't read properly before he makes a comment, and who says "expectations" are a problem. That's right kids, expectations in life will get you in trouble, never have them - what a laugh. Lets see here - it's called beta testing, you can get people to do it for free, and all you have to do is fix the crap that people report, then you release your game, but we can't reasonably expect people do their jobs properly these days can we? and we certainly can't expect a DEV team banking it's reputation on a product to deliver to us what they promise. I mean, expecting to get what you pay for, expecting people to live up to their name sake or promises?? Who does that?
Oh but wait, it's only 12 dollars - that game is worth 12 dollars right? I mean, if you think about it - a buggy game that's a fraction of the price of AAA title that doesn't have any bugs is absolutely worth it, it's a fraction of the price after all!? Why should anyone complain about that?
Well gee, that's an opinion, and pretty hollow one at that born from the lack of expectations you have, and you can shove that. There are so many reasons this game is not a AAA title, and money isn't one of them.
The dev team apologized for their crappy release. You can't argue with facts. And in case you are somehow ignorant to this fact, games perform differently on different systems because of the hardware. Just because the game seems to run perfectly fine for you, doesn't do crap for anyone else. Anyone beyond the age of 3 or 4 probably understands that their circumstances are not those of other people.
Damn, what the hell is wrong with you people? Taking a shot at a guy's life circumstances when he's merely making a point, it's really pathetic.
this whole situation is really quite simple - when you promise something, you should deliver. People who are not happy with the quality of what was given should get a refund, people who want to wait are entitled to. The quantity of money is not a factor - it may come as a shock to most of you but the quantity of money that he felt was wasted does nothing to lessen the ethical dilemma of releasing a game that was NOT what was promised - and viking conquest was not the viking conquest that was promised period, or perhaps the devs just felt like apologizing for nothing?
Quit defending companies or teams who don't deliver quality product.
Brytenwalda team, Taleworlds, I think anyone with common sense expected more out of you. Except that guy up there without any expectations for his 12 dollars. He'll take 7 more copies.

Is that something the devs have said or are you just completely guessing Taleworlds is at fault?

Armagan and Taleworlds accepted responsibility (and even apologised to the Brytenwalda team).
