Why are you complaining about it?

To piss off moralfags like you

>post same thread every day even when this has been explained over and over

Why is this allowed?

Because Steam is miles better than your console garbage stores, why else?
If it wasn't, you wouldn't be making this thread.

Because beating a game in 1 hours and 50 minutes means it wasn't a real game to begin with.

Newfags ITT

>play the whole game at a "brisk pace"
>nervously check the time every couple minutes
>as you get to the last half an hour you stop trying to solve puzzles and fall back to a walktrhough if anything isn't immediately obvious
>start skipping cutscenes
>beat the game at 1:52
>watch the end cutscene for half a minute before skipping it and the credits
>refund it
HAHA dumb moralfags! The game wasn't even good lol

its a basic right and law in most first world countries
an american wouldn't understand

>*play game for 6 and a half days, beat it multiple times*
>"I've had enough of that, give me my money back, gamestop."
>*gets refund*

It's ok when consoles do it.

Forgot image.

ITT: Things that aren't actually problems.

I played Killing Floor 2 for 150+ hours during early access and got a full refund on release.

>buy a product
>shill media says it is 10/10
>literally a niggermeme game
>refund and buy postal instead
Thanks Steam, now it is time to cleanse the world of some more niggers, spics, gooks and jeudea swine

>$60 game
>specs are better than recommended
>runs like trash
>you shouldn't be able to refund

I did the exact same thing, refunded a shit game and got the latest Postal 2 expansion.

>buy game
>download it
>go into offline mode, play for as long as you like, then delete the files that keep track of hours played before reconnecting
>get money back

Eat shit, gaben.

but you won't get a refund because they'll see that you completed the game by the achievements and deny your request.

>Bought BlazBlue ages ago - before refunding was a thing
>Game came out with no online for some reason so I never actually play it
>Recently remember I had the game while scrolling through my list
>Ask for refund because I don't play it - no online in a fighting game
>"too bad goy you waited too long ;^)"
Why is this allowed?

At that point it's just easier to pirate...

>He buys shitty anime games

You deserved it tbqh

No.

because not everyone lives in a corporate-ocountry shithole

proposal: games should be allowed to be refunded past 1 hour to encourage devs to make longer games (maybe 2-3 hours)

however!
if you refund a game, you cannot review it and any existing review is deleted

>buy product at store
>use it for 20 days
>I've had enough of that, store. Give me my money back.
>gets refund

Why is this allowed?
Consumer protection laws

If I return something I'm probably not satisfied with it and want to leave a negative review.

>Buy gunpoint when its not on sale
>Play the game and am only engaged for the first 30 minutes
>the last hour is boring and repetitive
>beat game in a little under 2 hours
>File refund
>get it back the next day
Why should I have to pay 7 dollars for a game, when the creators cant even create a game that lasts

If your game is shorter than 2 hours you probably deserve it and you should die in a hole for being a fraud and bloating Steam.

Source on how to do this exactly?

buy game in alpha on steam
play 10 hours
game is broken but it's ok it is in alpha
2 years later , the game is still in alpha and broken
can't refund
why is this allowed?

if i get the feeling i'm done with the game forever before i've even spent 2 hours in the game, then the game doesn't deserve my money

Just wait, IF it ever goes out of alpha, you can refund it regardless of how much you have played, thats what I did for KF2

>download a game from torrents
>play game for hundreds of hours
>do not pay a single cent

Why is this allowed?

>we will refund you this game but please don't tell anyone ok :^)

this is bribery.

>buy washing machine
>it breaks within the hour
>"lmao too bad good goy, no refunds, buy another one"

as we've told you ever time this thread gets posted every day, it's allowed because some of us don't feel like taking it up the ass just so we can spend all our money lining the pockets of the jews, retard

is gabe our guy?

This is exactly how Steam reviews work. Only people who own the game on Steam are allowed to review and if you refund a game, your review is automatically deleted.

Because you have bought item blind, from the internet and you need time to access if game will be/ was worth your money.

I can buy item from the internet shop, use it for 7 weeks and send it back saying that I didn't like it.

I think it's a great idea to counter piracy. It's easier to buy the game then refund it, but you might not want to do that and keep playing instead.

Is this another ''Americucks are so used to getting fucked in the ass by corporations they started to love it and now have trouble understanding basic consumer rights'' topic?

>Offline mode
>Implying

EVERY DAY WITHOUT FAIL
THIS LOSER MAKES THE SAME THREAD

>Consumer rights
Oh, fuck off, commie. This is just pure bullshit. If you're stupid enough to purchase something you not only didn't need, but didn't enjoy, you should have to live with your decision.
Maybe you should do more research next time? Look up more reviews from people you trust? The whole ''I should never have to face consequences for my mistake'' approach won't benefit anyone. It hurts consumer and the market alike.
The only countries who truly give a shit about ''consumer rights'' are European socialist shitholes who coddle their population in order to steal their tax money and let niggers rape their women.

>2017 (Current year)
>Buying digital, when even Nintendo is adopting a questionable online policy
I can't bring myself to buy digital anymore.

i wonder what dev or publisher is paying you OP. You're not even successfully baiting anyone. Why else would you do this? how much are you getting paid to slightly alter the same posts over and over?

Kek, seems I was right. Another amerifatty who cannot understand the basic logic of buying something, trying it, and fully refunding it if it didn't live up to expectations.

>Buying something, trying it
Why do you think this should be a right? If anything, this should be a privilege. A special offer from the store you're buying from. For fuck's sake. Stop being a spoiled brat.

to fuck scamers indie games

>u have 1 message on steam
>1 new item in your inventory
>It's a freakin foil card from the game you just refunded
tfw

>buy game from store
>got 48 hours to return it if i don't like it
>play for 47 hours return it
>i love laws

I guess everyone in my country is a spoiled brat then? Since that is a right.

Products aren't always what they seem, advertised as. They may not adhere to your specific needs and disappoint you, even though beforehand it seemed as if it would.

>carelessly forget about it
>want to refund despite missing the window of opportunity
>FUCK YOU JEWS GAS THE KIKES RACE WAR NOW

good goy

You're full pants on head retarded if you think digital refunds are a bad thing.

>mfw i keep finding more
Is valve paying you to make retarded arguments to make them look good?

Misleading marketing is a crime in and of itself, and should be treated as such, but with the plethora of reliable sources of information about all kinds of products and services, you really should have no excuse for buying something that you later realised you didn't want.
>I guess everyone in my country is a spoiled brat then?
In a way, yes. Being treated like children will turn you into such.

Regardless of how you feel, there is nothing wrong with this and it is not abused on a significant scale.

>There is nothing wrong with this
Give a real argument why people's stupidity shouldn't be punished, while honest retailers should.

How rare are foil cards anyway? I have 150 cards at this point and have only found a single (one (uno (1))) foil cards.
