-
Aria Amaryllis (@AriaALake) reported@PlayerKirbo @Zoroarts @Steam If they're allowed to do it, then it is a problem with the refund policy. ***** sake y'all are dumb.
-
Thiz (17-3 2x SUPERBOWL CHAMPS) (@Thizlam87) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I think the fix to this is to not make a game that is under 2 hours long. Steam shouldn’t change the 2 hour limit for refunds, I personally think it should be 3 hours.
-
Kevin Greene (@Phasmatis75) reported@ThatFuzzyTiger @Zoroarts @Steam Personally I like the idea of percentage of achievements or unlocking the ending achievement. Devs cannot just achievement dump on you as Steam forbids that, so it would be a good middle ground solution. I don't believe in ignoring problems when they're small so I can deal with them when they're big.
-
Mike Steel 💵🥩🥃 (@mike_steel_) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Skill issue. Make your game last 3 hours.
-
illyasviel Von Einzbern (@Illyasviel404) reported@Zoroarts @Krazerack @Steam I hate people do that.. unless got issues game really bad i understand....or unplayable.. well some people abuse it ... this gonna be problem later
-
Cloy (@Cloy006) reported@Mr_Clutchweg @Zoroarts @Steam "The problem is that people are getting pushed to try refunds like these because of some speedrunners beating difficult games in under 2 hours and refunding them." People like this wouldntve even tried the game if they didnt see speedrunners play it, there was no will to keep it
-
BritishDissonance (@Britdissonance) reported@jcrain1991 @Zoroarts @Steam The irony in calling me a simpleton when you're clearly a complete retard, good lord. Now you're making the argument that steam policy should change on one review? My whole point is either most people are refunding after beating it in under 2 hours, in which case its not worth the money, or they are refunding it for other reasons which is a non issue. Either way this dev is complaining about nothing.
-
Todd (Fox) (@Fox_Todd0370) reported@Zoroarts @Steam And with games like peak, how would that play with your soultion? Replay-ability seems to be the problem here, but go ahead and continue your cope.
-
Flamiexfuta (@flamiexfuta) reported@Zoroarts @Steam i mean its like this for a reason, its to protect the consumer from how terrible some devs can be tbh even 2 hours isnt enough for some games not saying ur one, the easiest best way to fix this exact situation is u need to make a longer game. instead of blanket hurt everyone
-
Kamina (@nogal909) reported@TheWarTank_YT @Zoroarts @Steam Yeah, if they feel what they paid was too much and they're in time for a refund I'd have 0 problems, since I respect my consumers (I'm a dev btw and 0 problems with this).
-
Ebin Memes22 (@EbinMemes22) reported@Zoroarts @Steam if your game can be finished that quickly then skill issue tbh
-
MistahWolfe (@mistah_wolfe) reported@Zoroarts @Steam First of all, SUPER weird that people are trying to bully the dev for this opinion despite it being 100% justified Second, IDK how to fix this because Steam's refund Policy is SO good for gamers. So many games straight up lie these days id never buy without it
-
BritishDissonance (@Britdissonance) reported@jcrain1991 @Zoroarts @Steam Buddy if the average person can beat it in 2 hours its not worth a pricetag. If the average person can't and the refunds are from people that didn't like it then he's complaining about a non issue. Can't have it both ways.
-
nanu (@chibinanu) reported@Zoroarts @Steam skill issue tbh. make the game longer XD
-
EVEILCHARM (@EveilCharm) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I agree it sucks but it's consumer protection against scam games and even one of them hit the news about a month or two ago so it's still a problem even now with the refund.
-
Toe (@xQtiee) reported@Zoroarts @Steam if your game is only worth 1 hour of playtime it deserves to get refunded. Make your game better so people want to invest more time and your problem goes away automatically.
-
Danny Silvers (@shadesofsilver) reported@SandorHQ @Zoroarts @Steam Not to say that the price isn't right here. It absolutely is. What we really have is a cultural problem, and that's not something Steam can fix. Steam can't force its audience to grow up.
-
Psykatomique productions (@Psykatomique) reported@Zoroarts @Steam At this point, if you sell a game that is less than 2 hour... the gamer is not the problem here... We have more and more games on steam, i would rather have half and more consistent.
-
isawarenshi (@isawarenshi) reported@Ian_Fisch @Zoroarts @Steam The issue is define short in both cases and don't make the policy too unwieldly for actual use.
-
Atomic Brick Studio (@Bitbybrix) reportedHello @Steam, I bought Sunset Overdrive and Undertale today, but an error occured through my purchase when I bought it. The money was deducted from my card but the Steam app said that the purchase failed due to an incorrect address. I had to redo my purchase for it to work.
-
MaximusChaddikus (@MaximusChadikus) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I have a question Steams refund policy has been around how long? And you put this game on steam knowing this why? Sounds like a you problem.
-
Panzerkirby (@PanzerKirby) reported@Indulgence82 @Zoroarts @Steam "skill issue" replies the retard that think the policy is worth something. Just Say You are a pos and go on
-
Caribouwu (@karibuwu) reported@BryceGuilbert @Zoroarts @Steam For me the test is for those who can only think with dichotomies and blame "If we changed things to accommodate you it might get worse in general so you should stop being so selfish. Go suffer in silence." No compromise? This problem isn't unique and complex
-
The Tea Virus (@TheTeaVirus) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Sorry no. Just make your game take longer than 2 hours to beat. You're not the first one with this issue but this is a great policy for consumer rights. I'll never buy a game from someone trying to change that.
-
Apex Autist (@galaxygash) reported@Zoroarts @Steam absolutely no problem. I'm sorry if that caused/causes you any issues, if anyone cites it or makes the claim, tag me and ill clarify I was mistaken and why.
-
bluglothree (@bluglothree) reported@Zoroarts @Steam This is an issue with the PC playerbase being entitled and cheap, which is why we can’t have nice things.
-
hakase (@hakasemini) reported@AdamService @Zoroarts @Steam people like you are literally why the social contract has broken down
-
Chud McCloud ✝️🇺🇲 (@MaroonKennedy) reported@eramaster12 @Steam @PlayStation Playstation says they want to double down on live service games even after the failures of Concord and Marathon
-
Balrog🇲🇽 (@SirBalrog23) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Company loses 100% so its not problem for steam
-
✨ kadey 💋 (@kadey180_x) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Dev issue if there is 0 replayability and such a short amount of gameplay.
