Holy fuck, paying 5$ for a game you beat in under 2hours? Yeah, I would refund that shit. Why;
  • No replay value
  • Too easy
  • Too short
  • No depth
Why wouldn’t I refund it if I had the option, don’t want that shit to happen then make your game a little longer, wee harder, and add some replay value or depth or both. Learn from this mistake and make the sequel better.

edit; reading the comments it seems a lot of people don’t understand that games and movies are two different experiences with different desired outcomes.
and
that beating a game in two hours, when you have never played it before, is not the same as beating a game in under an hour after it took you weeks to master.

People are stupid.
I hate people.

This is a seriously fucked up perspective.

Unless the game is a huge rug pull with credits rolling unexpectedly before the game can actually come to a natural conclusion, there is absolutely no justification for refunding a game you played to completion. The two hour window was set with large games in mind, to control for games that have an extended tutorial period before you can actually experience what the game really has to offer.

Total shitbag, entitled, jew, mindset.

I guess it depends entirely on the premise of the game and what info you're given. If you know up front it's a very short game then you are the retard. If there's some misleading about game length then the dev is the retard.

Calm the fuck down, take whatever 2 hour long game you are making and MAKE. IT. BIGGER.
Anything that can be beaten, with zero replay value, within 2 hours of purchase should be free or maybe Steam shouldn't offer refunds for games 5$ and under.
I want 1 hour for every 2 dollars I spend on a game, 1hr/1$ for dlc, and I don't give a fuck what stupid names you want to call me.

I mean its $5. A beer you drink in less than 30 minutes is like $8 today. Mass refunding here is quite gay. The game being super short is also quite gay.

This is the most joggerish "excuse me I ordered my stake medium and it was medium well, I'd like a refund, yeah but you ate the whole thing" argument I've read in 2026.

Using that logic, people should have refunded Portal 1 en masse, which means no Portal 2 happens (although Portal 1 was part of Orange Box originally, but tried to think of a good game that you can easily beat in under 2 hours)

I didn't beat portal 1 within a couple hours of purchasing and I don't know anyone that did.
I am sure there are people who did but I am not one of them.
