The inability to download from their servers means that players are eating up refund time sitting around waiting. So now there are players that haven’t even gotten to play yet and can’t get a refund through Steam.
I swear companies are just fucking trolling us at this point.
Didn't this happen with the last MSFS? I seem to remember Steam extending the refund period for that game. But I could've dreamed that
It did actually happen
There should be a general exception for games that update in the game, or a Steam API setting that differentiates between play time and update time, and penalties for games that don't abide by it.
A general distinction between play time, menu time, update time, pause time,... might be nice for counting hours in game too.
