Steam :: Steam News :: Steam Refund Policy Update
steamcommunity.com
Today we have updated a portion of our Refund Policy regarding pre-purchased titles. This change covers titles that are in pre-purchase and offer “Advanced Access”. Playtime acquired during the Advanced Access period will now count towards the Steam refund period. You can find our more information regarding Steam Refunds here.

    I find it surprising that existed. Not an unreasonable change.

    For the lazy, when a game sold “advanced access” as part of a pre-purchase; game time before release didn’t count to the 2h refund limit. So you could play eg 10h of a game, then refund it on release. This is them fixing it.

    I kinda like this.

    It was weird that so far this wasn’t being done, and on top of that this might get the odd person to not pre-purchase something which is always a win.
