To be fair, the negative reviews are mostly because the steam installer only installs the game installer which then downloads the actual game. And that counts towards gameplay hours. And just the sheer size of the download means the number of hours spent downloading and thus counting as hours played puts the game outside of the refund window.
- nodesocket 6y agoSteam is very liberal on giving refunds even if you go over the refund gameplay hours of Flight Simulator. Essentially all the reviews I've seen of the actual game and experience have been extremely positive.
- justinclift 6y ago> Steam is very liberal on giving refunds even if you go over the refund gameplay hours of Flight Simulator. That's not been my experience. I had a game which wouldn't even run on my system, and they refused to refund it. Even when the problem was documented and it obviously didn't work. There's no effective way to dispute it either. If I did a chargeback of the game, then Steam would revoke my entire account. Needless to say, I've not bought anything from Steam from that point, though I still use my account to play already purchased games.
