We, the concerned gamers and fans of the Payday franchise, demand that developer Starbreeze Studios and publisher Deep Silver take responsibility for the disastrous launch of Payday 3 on September 21, 2023. We urge them to refund all purchases made for this game on Playstation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Microsoft Windows.

1. Broken Promises: Starbreeze Studios and Deep Silver have repeatedly assured us that Payday 3 would be a highly anticipated title with a smooth launch. However, the reality has been far from their promises. The game was released in an unplayable state with numerous bugs, glitches, crashes, and performance issues.

2. Widespread Complaints: Since its release date, countless players have taken to various gaming forums and social media platforms to express their frustration over the unplayability of Payday 3. These complaints highlight severe technical problems that hinder gameplay enjoyment.

3. Loss of Trust: The failed launch has severely damaged our trust in both Starbreeze Studios and Deep Silver as reliable developers/publishers who deliver quality products. This betrayal not only affects our experience with Payday 3 but also raises concerns about future releases from these companies.

4. Financial Implications: Many gamers have invested their hard-earned money into purchasing Payday 3 based on the promises made by Starbreeze Studios and Deep Silver regarding its quality at launch. However, due to its unplayable state upon release, players are left feeling cheated out of their money without receiving a functional product as advertised.

5. Consumer Rights: As consumers who have paid for a product expecting it to be playable upon release date, we believe it is our right to receive what was promised or be refunded accordingly when those expectations are not met.

In light of these facts:

1. We demand that Starbreeze Studios and Deep Silver acknowledge their failure to deliver a playable game with the launch of Payday 3.

2. We request an immediate refund for all purchases made for Payday 3 on Playstation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Microsoft Windows.

3. We urge both companies to take responsibility for their actions and commit to improving their development processes to avoid such failures in the future.

By signing this petition, we express our disappointment and dissatisfaction with the failed launch of Payday 3. We believe it is crucial for developers and publishers to be held accountable for their mistakes, ensuring fair treatment of consumers who have invested in their products.

We trust that Starbreeze Studios and Deep Silver will address our concerns promptly by issuing refunds as requested, rebuilding our trust through transparent communication, and delivering a fixed version of Payday 3 that lives up to its promises.

Together, let's stand up for consumer rights within the gaming industry!
