Cue shitty devs putting all achievements 10 minutes into broken asset flip game. Anything you do is going to have shitty people taking advantage of it. Pick your poison. If I was a game developer and I knew that Steam's refund policy allowed anybody to get a refund essentially no-questions-asked with less than 2 hours of playtime, I wouldn't release a game that lasts less than 2 hours on their platform. And if I did, I wouldn't be banking on the revenue from it. --- PSN ID: Aristoph https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj5ydFYxnEODxpQeBswmiAA <cite>Aristoph posted [p:957557848] in Devs quit ...
