I bought "The Book of unwritten Tales" for my Thinkpad 2 Tablet which has a digitizer-pen. I looked out for an adventure-game which had no need of a keyboard, which I checked in the System Requirements on the Gog-Page of the game.
But then the game had no option to get saved or even closed without a keyboard and it was unplayable for me.
I deleted the game and applied for the money back guarantee. In response, a response that did not take into consideration my problem at all, more a general answer, I was demanded to update all components of my computer just to be sure.
I responded that I do 1. I do not want to spend several hours to update something that does not need an update, that does not even has an update (Lenovo GPU Drivers are from their website, and so on) that it is a computer for work that runs well where i do not want to experiment with - then something else does not work anymore (had that before with a netbook where brigthness regulation failed after updating grafik drivers), that I do not have a problem with how the game runs, but that I can not save nor quiet it as I though - as the description said: it would need no keyboard.
I have the feeling they did not even read that. I have the feeling they throw stones in your way so you do not get your refund.
For a teenager or a student maybe it is even fun screwing on their computer investing 2-3 hours on it - but alone investing another 2-3 hours was not worth my time as I am really busy in rl. Of course they asked me as well to re-download the title to try it again - another thing I was not happy about as it is a 4 GB download and also installing 4GB on the Thinkpad takes time. That is just marginal, I just wanted to describe the whole.
I bought over 60-70 games on gog in the past years, and I did not get a refund worth 4 usd even the mistake with the system requirements was their fault.
Ohter games do run without problems, like Homm5, Disciples 2, Still Life, ...
Well, I wont buy anymore games on gog after my expirience and I wanted to tell you the story about how it is with the "money back guarantee" and gog.
Thank You for Your attention.
