It only applies to what they call a game. Since it's a town simulator, the discount does not apply.

It's more of a social network with something to do tacked on. ^_~

I think you're right.

9 out of 10 times with Amazon, it doesn't matter how many times I explain my issue, they just can't understand and help me quickly.

One time I expressed a complaint about something, and they refunded my purchase immediately... when I did not want a refund. It's a joke.

That said, they always solve things in the end, even if that means just giving you credit. It's like they aren't trained to do their jobs at all, and are simply told "If the customer isn't happy, throw store credit at them."

Like I said, GG is ridiculously slow, but I've never had a problem with them besides that. Hell, they gave most people full refunds AND all the keys during the Bethesda fiasco. I'd call that pretty ing awesome.

I thought Amazon cs was in the US....

No, not at all. Every single support rep I get has a very obscure Indian name. No offense to Indians, of course, you guys just have some wild names.

I've never had much of an issue with Amazon. But usually I am demanding a refund so I get what I want. Once they were completely incompetent and clueless which was frustrating, but for the most part they are cool.

I don't know what complicated instructions Idiot gives them.

"I'd like you to gently, and I repeat, gently, place a replacement copy of this digital game in my library in the same order as it is now, right before The Secret World and right after the third copy of The Secret World I have purchased. Do so between 3:05 and 3:06 PM PST. Thank you."

Wait, people still have customer service in the US?

Best Buy does. Problem is, when I contacted them, I got a lady who sounded like a 60+ year old southern belle who didn't know what "video games" were.

Just because support might be in the US doesn't mean it's better.

What about Steam's CS?
(Customer Support, not Counter-Strike).

I wouldn't call anything steam does "customer service."

I know Sears/KMart has a US based CS team, but you only get them if you raise hell on social media or find away around their foreign based team.

It's been widely speculated that Steam Support (aka people that have no clue how to help you so just pull a response out of their ass) is outsourced and my experience with them would certainly point to this, but Valve tends to be really secretive and I could find no official confirmation of this.

It's more like "user maintenance"
