Hey Steam GO FUCK YOURSELF

Even if i buy and refund a 100 games a month, you gonna take it liek the sweet tight little bitch you are, ok? Dont tell me what to do. Maybe dont sell shitty games, how about that? Then i didnt have to rfund 99% of them.

Because you're buying the game, playing the full game offline and refunding afterwards.

Asking for refund past 2hrs/2weeks is possible it's just not automatic anymore.

Steams refund system exists solely for when I forget how trash UE5 games. I'll shrug off a bad 9r boring game but I absolutely want my money back for getting fooled by Tims shitty game engine for the nth time.

They will actually stop refunding your games (for a while, it's not a permanent ban) if you keep treating refunds like free demos. They lose money when you refund.

Why don't they just make it so any transaction fees are deducted from the refund? When returning stuff you bought online, you often don't get refunded the shipping cost unless there's something wrong with the product. Would solve everything and it's totally fair.

nta but I know for early access titles you can buy and play it for 100hours and when it's full release time you can refund since you put 0 hours into the full game.

>>741451950
Not OP but, shopping addiction is a real thing. You buy lots of games on a sale, get a huge dose of dopamine ("I bought so much for so cheap, ha!"), then a few days later you're like why the hell would I play any of these, then you refund them. I had a phase like that, but thankfully grew out of it.

/v/ is a dead shithole, but a reminder that the floor for getting rate limited for refunds is 20 in one week or 30 in a month unless you're already flagged for potentially using a stolen credit/debit card.

>>741452209
Go further, just add a refund tax. The same way Steam already adds a tax for selling on the market. Boom, why am i more clever than eevry Valve employee?

Not him, but are you fucking drunk or something? All of your replies ITT are angry and stupid.

The idea is you copy the game files to another folder, then install the Goldberg Steam emulator and then refund the game and keep playing it for free, works on any non-Denuvo game. And many games don't even use the Steam DRM, so you can skip the Steam emulator part.

They're right and you should stop buying shit games. See >>741452480.
It's basically gacha. The gacha does a bunch of glow-ups and gives gems and tells you this offer is really amazing that convince players to call the game "generous" but obvs it's all to get your money. Same thing you see on sales.

Wrong. I bought No Rest For The Wicked 6 months ago, zero hours played and I tried to refund it last week and got denied. I even wrote out some bullshit about only buying it to support the devs, felt betrayed by the direction of the updates, said im no longer interested in the product etc. Still they refused my refund.

If you're going to refund every game you buy, just pirate them. Its not difficult.

hmm

But seriously, if a game is on steam, you should pirate it. Steam is one of the reasons PC gaming is in such a shit state to begin with.
>>
>>741458345
the point was steam being a shit service and that you don't truly own your games

They tell me that every time. I buy 4-5 games a month and usually refund one. They will continue to refund me as I ask.
