How are some of you guys refunding games with over 2 hours playtime?
Go to your Steam Purchase History, find the entry and click, then choose "I have a Question" option instead of Refund option and tell your story. But whatever you read past 2 hours are all "exceptional" and doesn't mean you can always get past 2 hours just by using this method. Steam keeps track of your Refund frequency (not just total count, timing is important) so if you push your luck, you'll see the last warning of "Steam Refunds isn't for Trying out games" and if you ignore that warning, you'll get a permanent Refund Ban even if Support won't ever tell you this but reject any refunds afterwards. So if you're going to ask past-2-hours refunds, do them very very rarely, not casually. More on reddit.com

How generous is steam when it comes to refunding if you buy a game before a sale?
Very. You have 2 weeks or 2 hours play time. with some wiggle room, give or take. Refunding before is a sale is completely allowed. More on reddit.com

r/Steam on Reddit: Steam’s Refund Policy Is Honestly Impressive
December 22, 2024 -

I just had a refreshing experience with Steam that I wanted to share.

I bought two games yesterday, played one for ~ 2 hours and the other for 20 minutes, but neither was for me. I requested refunds for both, and to my surprise, they were approved quickly, with the funds set to return to my account within 24 hours.

In an age where so many companies prioritize profits over their customers, this felt fair and user-focused. It’s nice to see a platform that genuinely seems to care about its community and not just profits
