Anyone have games they wish they could refund?

I'm not sure if steam lets you refund games you've had for a while if you haven't played them for ages or not. I'm assuming not.

 

But I personally have a game I wish I could have refunded (although it took me a little over 2 hours to realise how bad it really was...) and that game is Homeworld: Remastered collection. That game cost me £30 I believe and it was utter tripe IMO (basing it off the glory of the 1999 original) for many reasons including lazy RNG systems, a burning desire on gearbox' end to make Homeworld 1 remastered just like Homeworld 2 (while many still like HW2 and some prefer it, they could have let the equally large portion of the fanbase that like HW1 more have the same game with more prettiness instead of buchering it)

 

That's my semi-rant out of the way. Any of you guys got games you bought before refunds were a thing and wish you could refund them?

Don't they only refund early access games as well? May be wrong, also I think you need under three hours and within 14 days of purchasing it.

No, not really. I wouldn't buy them if I didn't want them.

maybe dead space 3 and mirror's edge, but I paid so little for them that it doesn't matter...

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

Resident Evil 6.

 

Complete crap, they should have stuck with the inventory and gameplay of RE 4 and 5

Okay here we go:

Inquisitor

Ionball 2

Murder Miners

Zenoclash

Sid MEiers civ 3

takedown red sabre

kairo

 

Note that I got most of these from stuff like 3 random games for 5 dollars on ebay, except kairo and civ, they were just cheap

Sniper Elite V2. It begins promising, but eventually it starts starring Michael Bay.

Rule N1 of Stealth games: Don't include Michael Bay.

Basic guide to CPU's!

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.

I have to ask, what about Mirror's Edge do you not like? (I love it so I am just curious)

 

I bought Elite: Dangerous a few days before Steam started the refunds but had to much time played so I can refund it. (I have 3 hours, the limit is 2) I like the idea of the game and how the ships fly, but I don't love the repetitive nature of the quests.

Mirror's Edge is pretty small IMO.

But I got it for free, so can't complain.

Seems to be less buggier on PC and better looking than what I have one PS3..

But I heard the community is pretty much non-existent :P

I guess it's just not my sort of game to be honest. I found the control scheme infuriating and there wasn't much of it I really enjoyed. The story didn't seem like much (admittedly I didn't play much of it), I didn't enjoy the parkour since it was extremely linear and along pretty dull scenery, overall I found no reason to keep playing it.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

An insult to the series. I wish I could refund it so hard that the game faded out of existence.

For me nothing. I have had bad games, but nothing bade enough to justify wanting a refund.

What? That game is great.

I can understand that. I guess the idea was enough for me to enjoy the game. I also enjoyed trying to play it and get faster at beating the game and going through levels. The story was awful though.

Mirror's Edge was a very small game. If it tried I could beat it in 30-45 minutes, but that is part of where it was fun for me I guess.

I think the problem was that it repeatedly crashed
