Why is it so difficult to throw money at things? Seriously, I shouldn't have jump to hoops just to buy a game, I know they're *trying* to increase security, but honestly, this is just a pain in the a.... The game is only $20, why waste so much of my time pissing around just to have a game that should take 30 seconds to buy, add to card, type info, wait for email, activate game, and play. -__-
I had bought the game before, but I didn't see the email requesting for my full info, which would be completely irrelevant anyway, my info doesn't correlate with that of the name the card / PayPal info is in anyway. Regardless to that fact, they revoked my license and gave the money back. lawl.
Yeah, I guess that probably is my fault? Although, like previously stated, it wouldn't have done any good, my info != that of the payer, and I don't feel comfortable giving their info out for no reason other than them being pathetic. Who would honestly need to fraud a $20 payment? I doubt anyone really would, especially for a game, wouldn't it just be easier to acquire it else-ways?
I gave up and was solemn in my choice to not care about the game and just play other games I'd yet to finish, or play. That changed when I saw a YouTube video about it, popped up in my subs, t'was about the DLC for the game, I thought, hell, it's been like a year since you last played this, maybe you should try and buy it again. So I did, try, I went to their site, clicked the buy button, typed my email in, and told it my payment choice, I got a "Payment refused" option, I hadn't even supplied my info yet. So I changed my payment option, still refused. Changed email, yeah, still refused.
Now I'm annoyed, and rather agitated, hence this mostly irrelevant rant that no one will probably read, but I don't care, it's making me feel better to simply vent, nor does it probably make much, or any sense. As I do with all my 'long' posts, add a summary at the bottom for those who want to know, but don't want to read. :P

tl;dr?
   I want to buy a game, but I can't. Not because I don't have the money, but because they don't want it. O_o

Sounds a bit like my experience buying a game from cj's cd keys with "instant" delivery system they required verification with a picture of a bill with your name & address on it etc etc was way over the top for a game that cost <$20.

Ended up not getting the key till the next day.
