A point to remember when talking about Steam Refunds, the 2 hour/2 week limit is only for automatic refunds. You can still reach out to Steam and they can make refunds on a case by case basis. So if you were to buy a Helldivers 2 shovelware clone and not boot it up for a couple of weeks, you could still get the refund, it just might take a few more steps and some intervention from Steam Support. It's not an end all, be all, just the automatic process vs manual intervention.

Don't forget H1Z1 that was a Survival game and a Battle Royal type game. Then they split the game into two free to play games that were broken. Everyone that payed during early access lost out on a great survival game and never got a refund from Sony. And eventually the Battle Royal part of the game got shut down for online gambling IRS issues.

People make excuses for it because there *A* version of it that's technically playable. So they can forever move the goalposts because people are in essence paying for the developer to commit to "stretch goals". The more stretch goals they add in the interim, the LESS fiduciary incentive they have to release an actual finished product.

Shatterline needs to be added to this list. Was in early access for 2 years selling season passes and cosmetics, then all of a sudden announced that they were removing it from steam to be added to Epic games and partnering with Faraway to introduce NFTs to the game. Then it was revealed that it was always a part of the plan to introduce NFTs to the game and the devs were using all the players in discord to beta test the game for free, and banning anyone from the discord who spoke negatively about NFTs, including staff and mods. Nothing will be carried over to Epic on the full launch of the game so any existing players will start from scratch.

This. People need to know about that, if they get through with that and get a somewhat good playerbase in the future we all know that other companies will just follow at least the removing it & re-selling it part. Worst part is that I expected Nintendo to be the first to pull something along those lines given that everything for (and including the firmware itself) the Switch is licensed on a revocable basis by just telling people to buy a new console & the games again, I'm almost willing to bet that they're watching how this case plays out really close.

It's advertised to be a procedural horror Backrooms escape game and looks very exciting with hyperrealistic visuals and plenty of nostalgic environments, however the game has suffered multiple delays and proceeds to post the same clips with a new one once in a blue moon, leading people to think they're simply Blender renders.

Maybe I'm just being too nice here but I'm leaning towards "The Day Before" as being a case where the devs were just way too ambitious and simply weren't able to create what they had hoped to create. Sure they should have simply been honest about their shortcomings but that's easy to say in hindsight. On the other side of the coin to me is Star Citizen. It's the only time I've ever gone the kickstarter route and thank goodness I went for the minimum. It's vapourware and they have no excuses left. From the outside at least, it seems like they've spent 90% of their MASSIVE amounts of money on trying to get more money by promising yet another in the VERY long list of new and "exciting" ships .... for an extra fee. It would be lovely if they stopped trying to get more money by making more vanity ships and actually worked on finishing that hot mess.

It's incredible seeing TitanReach get mentioned in this as I actually do some 3d modeling of weapons for this game. I was stunned when the entire team just kinda dropped off the face of the map one day and didn't pay me for the last batch of models I made. This explains a lot.

The Day Before had my interest when it was in development, but I also wanted to wait when the hype wasn't center-stage, but the game itself. Phew! Falcon, I would love to hear your list of 10 unpopular games that you find fun. Those are the best to find some hidden gems that were originally lambasted by critics/fans.

When a game is so ambitious that its promises start to feel like science fiction, sometimes it's easier to believe in the dream rather than the reality. In a world where studios fight for every penny from players, it's astonishing to see projects like Star Citizen continue to raise millions despite their perpetual 'development.' This is more than just a game-it's a pure cult. But how much longer before fans start asking uncomfortable questions?

You could technically add Rise of Man to that list. It's still up on the Steam store and conning people into buying it but you essentially can't get much further than the opening area and there has been no developer communication since 2017. Reporting/flagging it on Steam seems to get no attention and buyers simply lose their money. Lots of reviews stating the same and Steam still keeps it in the store.

For the number 8, maybe they hoped that the players would like their game enough that they won't care it wasn't actually Helldivers. Soulja Boy used this technique to get Superman into a hit song. He uploaded it to MP3 downlaod sites under the name ofa hit song at the time. People would download it thinking it was, say a 50 Cent song, play it, realise it wasn't actually a 50 Cent song, but would keep playing it because they enjoyed the song enough to look past the fact they were originally duped.

KS : I really need some convincing to back a tabletop game, and it's either miniatures or a revised version of a game that is hard to get retail. Given how a retail videogame can run over budget or be delayed, plus the availability of video games already available on the market, I'd be hard pressed to back a video game, except one that's a spiritual successor. What makes you back a video game?
