Sort of. Steam offers refunds for any reason. They use that phrase on their FAQ.

But if you already knew that, why did you bother with the first comment?

That’s not how money works.

Those people bought it at an agreed value with the information present at the time. Why would they receive a refund?

If that was the case, if you bought something that went on sale next month, does that mean you are entitled to a refund? And if so, what is the cut off date for that?

The side stories were mostly absent and not interesting at all.

Then

I did the story for Far Cry 6 and some of the side stuff in about 12 hours, then uninstalled the game

Come on pal, I don’t disagree, it felt the weakest of the series… But this feels like you wanted to dislike the game before even playing it. Plus, you can’t really criticise something as being absent if you just chose not to engage with it.

You’d use a big ass gun upgraded with special armor piercing bullets, shoot a regular dude right in the head and he would just shrug it off and keep going.

Yeah? I had the opposite problem. Using the first rifle you get with a silencer and some armour piercing rounds you could one shot every enemy with a head shot. Took away a lot of the fun by making me have to ignore that and use different guns that were substantially weaker just for some fun firefights.

The big brain move was to ask them first, thereby proving you wanted to use their IP.

If he had just faked it anyway without asking he might have got away with it.

Genius strategist.

I’m interested to hear what everyone uses as an alternative.

features with a high degree of customizability - you can swap out the back cover, and also attach things like a lanyard.

Ooooh, a lanyard strap… That’s the sort of right to repair we’ve all been after.

Surely Call of Out drops in Fall?

Got through the whole article and they don’t say, “Fall of Duty” once.

What even is journalism these days?!?

Best gaming of my life was on a SNES coupled to a janky sanyo portable.

I got a refund four hours in when I explained that I had spent two of those in a queue waiting to play.

I know they’ve fixed that now, but the two hours arbitrary limit is a bit… Limiting.

Yeah, they could do that. Maybe they will. That’s capitalism for you. It doesn’t care about users, just the property.

Gary’s mod, having assets if Nintendo properties. Nintendo wants that removed. People are somehow shocked.

Wait for the community to fix it for us

Updates to Todd Howard when?

Top points for Matt “Wolves!” Berry voicing him.

Really wanted to like this game. The hype had me.

I played it, waiting for it to get good. It just never did for me. Maybe I’m missing something, but after 10 hours I felt like I’d seen pretty much everything.

As for the anti-cheat, I understand why they’d have that. I’ve played so many games where people cheat and it just kills the fun. Even when it is PvE.

I don’t really understand the mindset of the cheaters though. Do they think we all talk about how great they are after the game is over? Like, Bobfucker326 sure did shoot more stuff than any random player I’ve ever seen, he must have a massive wang and be great at maths and stuff.

I think I want to like it more than I like it.

The loop is just pretty dull. The stakes never really feel that high.

Totally understand why some people dig it though, especially those playing with pals.

And yeah, can you imagine buying a ticket to see a film and being told there’s not enough room in the cinema, so stand outside and just wait. I’m not sure that’s a great experience.

Influencers are just fleshy advertising boards.

Let’s not worry about them throwing their toys out of the pram.

Doing anything excessively leads to that.

What you are describing is addiction in the broadest terms and really is nothing specific to video games.

And then minidiscs, briefly, and then mp3s again, and then vinyl and then tapes, and then CDs and then minidiscs and then mp3s again, and then right track and then wax cylinder and then tape and the vinyl…

It’s just a consumerist carousel. But what you like. Listen to it. Enjoy it. Fuck the format.
