Vanquisher Starter Pack bug

I purchased the pack, the description says:

But what it actually contained was:

I assume this is a bug that it’s not giving everything, can I get the rest of the items please?

Someone has suggested that it’s intentional, if that’s the case the item is blatantly falsely advertised, how do I go about getting a refund for it? I wouldn’t want the pack if it doesn’t contain what it was advetised as containing.

Thanks


I’ve put the contents in the bottom row of the storage of my main character, highlighted, to make it easier for whatever GM has to remove them:

Note that the mount was consumed, that needs to be removed too.

The character slot token, currency and aura time will also need to be removed.

100% this. There is no indication there is a limitation to the skins that you receive in this pack. This is a 100% trap pack on Steam, and they make it non-refundable knowing that people will buy it thinking you get all the skins listed. Blatant misrepresentation of the product they are selling. You only get the skin associated with the class you open the pack on.

Love the game!

To be fair, the live chat person I spoke to was really friendly and forwarded it to tech people to look into. I’m assuming they’ll refund people.

They have edited the steam page now, after 176 mostly negative reviews and likely thousands of sales, time will tell if they refund or meet their contractual obligations, so I’m going to stay positive and give them a week or so before escalating it.

Me [03:58:20] : given the reviews for it, i’m not the only one
Me [03:58:36] : but i doubt whoever i’m talking to would be able to do that :stuck_out_tongue:

Me [04:10:00] : i also have no way of seeing if i have the “Character Expansion Slot”, since it didn’t give me a 13th slot, i’ll only know if i have it when more slots open up
Ogar [04:11:16] : Thanks for all that info :slight_smile: I’ve submitted the escalation to technical team
Me [04:12:26] : thank you kindly, is there any other information you need from me? 4am here :stuck_out_tongue:
Ogar [04:12:50] : No we got everything I needed :slight_smile:
Me [04:13:15] : great, thank you for your time
Ogar [04:13:38] : You’re most welcome Dax! Take care and all the best to you!

Here’s the change the made today:

At least under UK law, we entered into a contract when I made the purchase, while this is sufficient for people moving forward, we still need what we purchased.


Lets give them time to deal with it. <3

I wrote with the Support and one of the Moderators of this Forum. There will be no Refunds (because of consumable Items) and there is no offical statement yet about how the will handle People with this Problem

Primarily I’m asking for what I paid for, I only need the refund if they’re unable to meet that obligation.
