I like seeing people argue saying that CIG's ToS is no different than any other gaming company.

Putting aside the legality of the fact that every other ToS refund policy begins when you RECEIVE a product versus when you PAY for a product, let's compare Terms with a company that won "Worst company of the year" TWICE --- Electronic Arts!
This is just what I could find.

Agreement to terms

CIG/RSI posted:

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE (“TERMS OF SERVICE”) CAREFULLY. BY CLICKING THE “ACCEPT” BUTTON AT THE END OF THESE TERMS OF SERVICE BELOW, OR BY USING THE https://www.robertsspaceindustries.com WEBSITE AND RELATED WEBPAGES (THE “WEBSITE”) OR RSI SERVICES OR ANY OF THE CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE VIA THE WEBSITE OR THE GAME LAUNCHER. YOU AGREE THAT THESE TERMS OF SERVICE ARE ENFORCEABLE LIKE ANY WRITTEN CONTRACT SIGNED BY YOU.
"By looking at these terms, you're agreeing to them"

Electronic Arts posted:

You agree to check terms.ea.com periodically for new information and terms that govern your use of EA Services. EA may modify the Terms of Service at any time. Revisions to terms affecting existing EA Services shall be effective thirty (30) days after posting at terms.ea.com. Terms for new EA Services are effective immediately upon posting at terms.ea.com. EA will not enforce material changes to this Agreement against account holders absent express agreement to the changed terms.
"We may make changes to these terms, but you only agree by expressing clicking 'I Agree'"
Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration

CIG/RSI posted:

If you and RSI are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, either you or RSI may elect to have the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. YOU UNDERSTAND AND HEREBY AGREE THAT YOU HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.
"Go gently caress yourself"

Electronic Arts posted:

The only disputes that are not covered by this Section are the following:

- a claim to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or EA’s (or any of EA’s licensors’) intellectual property rights;
- a claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, or unauthorized use of intellectual property;
- if you reside in Australia: a claim to enforce any statutory consumer rights to which you are entitled under the Australian Consumer Law; and
- in addition, nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from initiating a small claims court action.
"Feel free to take us to court"

CIG/RSI posted:

Any arbitration shall be initiated in the County of Los Angeles, State of California, United States of America. Any Dispute not subject to arbitration, or where no election to arbitrate has been made, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the County of Los Angeles, State of California, United States of America, and you and RSI agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.

"I'm too lazy, you come here"

Electronic Arts posted:

If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration will take place at any reasonable location convenient for you. For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in the County of San Mateo, State of California, United States of America, and you and EA agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court, in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
"If you're in the US, we're happy to accommodate you."

CIG/RSI posted:

Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. If such costs are determined by the arbitrator to be excessive, RSI will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. Additionally, in the event any legal or administrative action or proceeding is brought by either party in connection with these Terms of Service or the RSI Terms and consistent with the terms of this Section, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover from the other party all of the costs, attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by such prevailing party as the result of the action or proceeding.
"We're coming after you if you try to gently caress with us, don't you dare"

Electronic Arts posted:

If the arbitrator rules in your favor on the merits of any claim you bring against EA and issues you an award that is greater in monetary value than EA's last written settlement offer made before written submissions are made to the arbitrator, then EA will:

- Pay you 150% of your arbitration award, up to $5,000 over and above your arbitration award; and
- Reimburse all of the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees that you paid to the AAA. Each party will be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees and related expenses (including expert witness fees and costs), but the arbitrator will have authority to award attorneys’ fees and expenses if such an award is available under applicable law.
EA waives any right it may have to seek an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any arbitration between us.
"If you win, we make it worth your while and fire the jackass that screwed up. You don't even have to pay our attorneys, that's how confident we are."

Refunds

CIG/RSI posted:

The Pledge shall be earned by RSI and become non-refundable to the extent that it is used for the Pledge Item Cost and/or the Game Cost, with your Pledge being applied as follows: first to the Pledge Item Cost, and then on a pro rata pari passu basis with all other contributors whose deposits have been deducted by the relevant Pledge Item Cost, to the Game Cost. Accordingly, you agree that any unearned portion of your Pledge shall not be refundable until and unless RSI has ceased development and failed to deliver the relevant pledge items and/or the Game to you.
"Lol, no"

Electronic Arts posted:

Once you have redeemed your Entitlements, that content is not returnable, exchangeable, or refundable for other Entitlements or for cash, or other goods or services, subject to any rights of return you may have under Section 16 or under any applicable consumer law in your territory.
... Section 16...
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY DISPUTE WITH EA OR ITS LICENSORS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO EA SERVICES AND/OR EA PRODUCTS IS TO STOP USING EA SERVICES, AND TO CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT EA, ITS LICENSORS, LICENSEES AND AFFILIATES ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT BY THEM OR ANY OTHER PERSON REGARDING CONDUCT, COMMUNICATION OR CONTENT ON EA SERVICES OR USE OF EA SOFTWARE. IN NO CASE SHALL EA'S OR ITS LICENSORS', LICENSEES', AFFILIATES', EMPLOYEES', OFFICERS', OR DIRECTORS' (COLLECTIVELY, "EA AFFILIATES") LIABILITY TO YOU EXCEED THE AMOUNT THAT YOU PAID TO EA FOR EA SERVICES.
"You get a refund as long you don't try to claim we owe millions, let's be reasonable"

TOS Violations

CIG/RSI posted:

RSI may immediately suspend or terminate your Account(s) (and access to all related entitlements) or any subscription for an RSI Service after notifying you of your breach of these Terms of Service, or any illegal or improper use of any of your Account(s), or your illegal or improper use of the RSI Services, products, or RSI’s Content. You may lose your user names and personas as a result of your Account(s) being terminated.

"We'll close your account if you try to steal information or break laws, we can't allow that poo poo. We also value our customers, so don't gently caress with them either. If we do close the account, you may still be able to get a refund, because that's covered under a different section. Look it up."

Just a few I could find, I'm sure there are more.

Feels like a betrayal to say, but the best cats are similar to dogs. Just get them while they're young and gently caress with them constantly so nothing bothers them when they're older.

From one catte owner to another, my deepest condolences Goobs. :(

Butters (my catte) had similar issues, he had been up and down like a yo-yo with his health most of his life, had cancer when he was 4 which meant he had to lose a fingat (or toe?) from one of his front paws, then he started getting food allergies so I had to constantly ween him off one type of food onto another until he had almost exhausted the possible food types he could eat.

Last week he finally succumbed to Feline infectious peritonitis, which is incurable and only in very rare cases, manageable. I'm collecting his ashes tomorrow so he can spend eternity in his favorite place, and when I shuffle off the mortal coil, I'll be joining him in that spot. :D

If you look at a lot of CIG's behavior, much of it is driven to give the illusion of success and importance. The cons, the lavishly decorated offices, this is the trapping of a con. He looks successful, so people think he is successful and give him money. Established companies with a proven track-record don't need to do that.

I don't know if you've been to San Francisco but lavish offices are totally standard. Then again these are companies that successfully launched IPOs so I guess it doesn't matter but I totally did a tour of AirBNB, rode around the office on a razr scooter and ate some slaughtered lamb from their chef while having some great craft beer in their cafeteria.

Great TOS comparison. Also notable is simply how they're written - you can see the difference when you have professional lawyers and people familiar with game development, vs the hacked-together ambulance-chaser cheap imitation that CIG puts out. The writing styles are worlds apart. It's just another example of CIG not being a real game development company, but rather one that looks over at other successful ones and attempts to imitate what they're doing, without really understanding it.

That's true, but then AirBNB was trying to impress funding.

For CIG, I think that a lot of the extravagance is to give backers a sense of security, because CIG behaves how backers believe a wildly successful company should behave.


Let me rephrase my previous comment: everyone tries to look successful when they are aiming to impress. CIG is just exceptionally blatant about it.
