something that would actually be really funny is if you did one of these challenges again but used a pirated copy of the game. same premise of "can i beat this game in time to refund it" but at the very end reveal it was a pirated copy and there's nothing to refund. it would probably be even more effective comment bait than this video. love the vid btw

[@pyroman7196]

No thanks

[@Runestarr007]

Juat a heads up for everyone, steam will never remove the refund policy even if people do stuff like this, because they legally are not allowed to, they lost a court case in Australia which requires refunds and it is the reason the refund policy exists in the first place, cause it legally has to

[@MrSC219]

It never ceases to amaze how speedrunners find this stuff. And how sometimes it's just pure luck.

[@rellbandoo6572]

I hope everyone has a good Wednesday. Every other day, you’re on your own.

[@crypticcss4359]

Didn’t he say he didn’t even refund the game he did reset attempts? Either way if I’m wrong or right aren’t you practicing on the game for more than 2 hours probably on another account why are people mad

[@SSJ_Derp]

Yeah he literally had a whole bit at the end of the video about how he just went for the time and didn’t actually refund the game, and people are still posting comments like “bro you should just go for the time and not actually refund the game, what a scummy thing to do, you will single-handedly ruin Steam refunds for everyone doing this reeeeeeee” 😂

[@EZScapeSpeedruns]

I'd just like it to be known that I did not refund the game to be ethical, but because I am lazy👌

[@brandonspeed]

That last comment is kinda why i didn't refun the first game i speedran on pc. Jokingly got squirrel stapler, and 100% completed it in about an hour

[@RagingBigfat]

I mean if you were doing refund challenges for indie games it wouldn't be the same. Also people have to keep in mind that these challenges sometimes mean having to buy the game multiple times sooo...

[@HarpoCoatl]

Will you be posting osrs videos anywhere or only livestreams?

[@chucklebutt4470]

I loved the reaction of the streamer who found that first glitch. I remember Crash 1 being hard as shit at some points but I was also just bad at games as a kid. I mean, I'm bad at games now too but I just know it's me and not the games themselves.

I think these videos are pretty cool and keep them up. I know its going to annoy some people and i get those opinions but i dont think its going to be a big enough shift for changes to get implemented.

[@TheAgarillobob]

since you can always apply for a steam refund and the 2 hours of play 14 days from purchase is just for the guaranteed period...

[@tomboy_kisser]

I've been using steam for 15 years. In all this time they've never granted me a refund that wasn't within the guaranteed period, even when I had 0 seconds of playtime but bought the game 15-30 days ago, and even when I was just a few minutes over 2 hours of playtime while being within the 14 day window. The only exceptions I've heard of where they granted refunds outside of the guaranteed period are for situations like HD2 in early May, 2024, NMS on release, and other situations where the publisher pulled some BS

[@TheAgarillobob]

@@tomboy_kisser I got GTA IV refunded after ~9 hours of play and 20 days of purchase with 10+ achievements. I got helldivers 2 refunded after 150h of play and like 3 months from purchase and all achievements but that was due to a dooming PSN change that did not happen afterall due to many refunds. I got gynophobia refunded after 3 hours of play all achievements no idea when I purchased. You need to keep in mind a bot will decline your first refund if the period expires after that you get a person to talk to and if that doesnt work do it again for another higher person

[@Lola__Cola]

Good to refund, because scrww Activision

[@flamingmoomba5608]

Oh those poor multi million dollar companies having to put up with some speedrunners and youtubers getting a few refunds. I like the concept and its not going to mess with anything. If a speedrunner fails the challenge it just means more money for them

While I do love the concept, I actually prefer when you don't refund games (like this episode) , the past poster had a point, the system isn't for speedruns its for proper complaints.

[@0tterhead]

Honestly yeah. Super cool to see the game beaten so quick but this kinda policy abuse is absolutely going to ruin it for other people with a legit reason to refund. As the saying goes, one bad apple can spoil the bunch.

[@SilimSavertin]

[@ninjafrog6966]

people really delusional if they think beating a game under 2 hours and refunding it is going to lead to policy changes lol! people just like to whine about literally everything nowadays

[@OrsoBruno]

Man I love the people in the comments crying because they think this whole concept is something anyone can do and will do They're complaining that it's a scummy practice to beat a game so fast you can then refund it but then you realize even if someone does it they're refunding an ACTIVISION GAME Get your heads out your ass for once

[@crispypeepohole69]

So the ethical way (if any cares) I've found to approach refund challenge is: having a burner account/buying 2 keys and only refunding one, so you have still technically bought a copy of the game, therefore supporting the devs.

[@Torvinoid]

I mean... Steam has pretty standard rules for returns. You don't HAVE to return it and if you're going as far as your describing anyways, you're literally using the same amount of money. Why not just keep it and accept the time as a win?

[@ninjafrog6966]

or he can refund the game and you people can stop making shit up and crying about “muh policy abuse!”

[@anthonydavenport1841]

Or just get a life

[@RedGuy-wy2gg]

Wooo ps1

[@meowywitch]

Not the kind of content I watch you for, EZ. but I still hope you have a great day, I just can't morally gel with this.

[@tomboy_kisser]

You realize he didn’t refund the game, as he stated over a dozen times across the video and in comments, and others have pointed out dozens of times, right? Willfully ignorant crybullies gonna do their thing.

[@vulpinitemplar5036]

I'm glad to get shown these kinds of shenanigans but I certainly hope you do it in a more intended kind of way even if it's own for the sake of showcasing :)

[@UnderfellSansTheEdgySkeleton]

Honestly surprised this concept hasn’t died off since in the end it can really hurt developers

[@triplej27]

Indie dev yes multi billion dollar company no

[@PowerZordan]

The devs of the trilogy were sent to the Call of Duty jail because the sales were "lackluster" You never hurt the devs when doing this to AAA games, only shareholders, devs don't get paid more/less depending on the sales

[@schmingbeefin4473]

The people that do these challenges have already bought the game, hence how they can practice. They just make a new account to attempt beating the game in 2 hours, and if they don't, that technically is more money to the developers. But if they do beat the game in 2 hours, no money to the developers is lost here, as the game has already been sold to this customer and they didn't intend to buy a second copy. Also, in this video, he never even bought a second copy, he did the attempts on his original copy.

[@ninjafrog6966]

lmao! the delusion

[@natedizzledazzle380]

Let us know if you ever want to give Crash 4 a shot and want to learn the any% strats. 😅

[@jasonstatus6065]

I’m sorry but requesting refunds for no reason is why game company’s don’t put effort into making games

[@tomboy_kisser]

Yeah, it's definitely not because of the Minimum Viable Product concept that infected the AAA industry over the past decade with countless devs and marketers giving talks on it. It's definitely not because capitalism doesn't require infinite growth to be sustainable, and making a profit is not enough - the profit must always be larger than the last one or it's considered a failure. Nothing to do with cutting content to sell it back as DLC for more profit, either. Bruh, get some common sense about modern PC gaming before making willfully ignorant crybully comments.

[@jasonstatus6065]

Cyberbullying? Dafuq you on about? I made a valid point, you wouldn’t go and buy food, eat it and then get a refund. Anyway even with the things you listed this is giving them even more reason not to bother its stealing, so what you telling me if you sell something for money, and the arsehole you sell it too wants a refund because they’ve used it for its intended purpose now they want their money back and they abuse the system, you wouldn’t be pissed? Because I know I’d be oh but because a KZbinr does it they are entitled to do so?

[@oatjuice5921]

the problem with these types of refunds is that it gives companies reasons not to allow it. the few ruin it for the dozens. as long as its below 2 hours youll get the theoretical refund anyway

[@stackhack]

exactly, he didn't refund it he just went for the time. watch the video before you comment and complain about "ethics" (Activision btw who gives a shit)

[@tomboy_kisser]

You realize that Steam legally can't remove the option to refund a game? It's legally impossible for "the few to ruin it for the many." Get some common sense about modern PC gaming before making willfully ignorant crybully comments.

@@PowerZordan That why I said concept. Many definitions of concept are applicable here but let's choose: "A plan or original idea". The idea of requesting a refund for a product you have fully consumed is fucked up.

@@DaRealPielover1987 "The idea of requesting a refund for a product you have fully consumed is fucked up." But he didn't. He proved that he can >technically< finish the game in less than 2 hours using glitches that skip ~99.8% of content in the games. Playing ~0.2% of the content (more like 0.1% when you include time trials, etc.) in the trilogy is hardly "fully consuming a game"

[@LutherKujo]

I like the fact that I finally get recommended this dudes vids after a long ass time of not even watching him anymore,and the moment I do get a vid recommended from youtube it's of him doing that stupid scummy shit of buying a game and then trying to beat it fast just so that he can get a refund from it,use the fucking refund system to address actual complaints and why you actually should refund the game,if your gonna do it just for clicks and views then it's not worth watching at all,thank god at least a ad plays first before this trash vid would of started anyway
