I can sympathize that $300,000 is a lot to cough up, but G2A’s response to this should have been way better. Anyone still on the fence will have a chance to meet with G2A at Gamescom to talk it over. Those interested now have until the end of August. Due to this, G2A has extended the deadline for developers and publishers to add their name to this list. Instead, just 19 companies have backed G2A’s proposal to create software that would help with fraudulent key sales. In more G2A news, that key-blocking tool mentioned above failed to receive support from at least 100 developers. In spite of that, Unknown Worlds has been unable to provide evidence sufficient enough for G2A to pay them back and the claim was redacted.
Interestingly, go2arena was around at that time and Cleveland believes they were the culprit. G2A defended itself from Cleveland’s claim, saying they couldn’t be responsible for the chargebacks since G2A didn’t exist during the time in which they would have occurred. He echoed the sentiment made by Mike Rose that it would be better for players to pirate games rather than buy from their marketplace. He also had quite a bit to say about G2A, calling out their proposed key-blocking tool. Factoring in G2A’s offer to pay 10 times more, Charlie Cleveland (director on Subnautica) took to Twitter claiming that G2A would owe Unknown Worlds a total of $300,000. On Monday, the developers behind Subnautica, Unknown Worlds, called on G2A to pay them for chargebacks they received. First up, a while back, G2A announced to developers that they would pay back 10 times the revenue that they lost due to faulty key sales on their platform. G2A has returned to the spotlight a few more times this week.
