This might get me to buy more games. Let me start off by saying I'm a very casual gamer, playing only a few hours a month tops. My two friction points are the return policy, which has a 2 week limit, and the huge download sizes for games.
If I wanted to play a game, I'd have to wait a few hours to download the whole thing. I don't have Google fiber. My time to have played that game is usually gone by the time that's over and I might not get a chance to play again for another 2 or 3 weeks. Having the 90 minute trials would completely solve this problem for me.
- weaksauce 3y agoit was two hours of play time in the game not 2 hours from when you buy it... two hours of playing or 14 days since purchase whichever was sooner
- spadros 3y agoThey’re saying they might pass 14 days since purchase if the download wastes their time to test it on the free night.
- alisonatwork 3y agoSame here. I game in spurts where sometimes I will play a few hours a night and other times I will only fit in a couple hours a month. I have several AAA games I bought in the past that turned out to be obscenely huge downloads, and by the time I freed up enough space on my system to download them, then actually downloaded them, then started them up only to discover they didn't run on my Surface Pro anyway, the return window expired. Very annoying.
