TGG says: "We interviewed Pepijn Rijnders from Sakari Games, and he had some opinions to share about the state of the videogame industry, the state of indie games and Steam as a platform to sell them on."
Steam is changing its refund policy, but you probably won’t be affected
Should have happened a long time ago. People wanting refunds after 50 hours in game.
Daily reminder that 'TheGamer' is a corporate-generated, anti-gamer, anti-consumer, clickbait web site. They are mostly A.I. generated articles that villainize gamers. They provide nothing positive and actively try to provoke and divide the community through extreme view points and politics. Do not give them any clicks.
Only scumbags? As if people don't play their games on console put in the most amount of hours and return it to GameStop and trade it in for another game. But also how many people are actually do this? And what games have been allowed to be refunded?
You can refund any game you've purchased as long as it hasn't been longer than two weeks, and you've played less than 2 hours. I wish they would change it to 3 hours because some RPG's have so much exposition that you may only get an hour total of complete gameplay. That's my only knock on it. I've refunded plenty of stuff I was just curious to try. I typically stay away from Early Access titles which are the only ones affected by this policy change.
Apparently early access doesn't count, only complete games with a play early preorder bonus.
I never liked refunding anything. Even if a film is bad, i dont want my money back. Sometimes things just aren't for me, and it's not the creator's fault necessarily.
A job listing published by the UK studio reveals that its next project will be another entirely new IP.
Dayum did I hit a nerve. Sorry for not liking most of this gens games coming from PS, not really doe.
Good. Something not boring, not one of those "make your own game" crap and also on Steam would be nice.
It's time to add two more games to your library for free from the Epic Games Store.
I'm impressed on how well stuff sell on the Switch. The console already have a respectable library, but even stuff that would look subpar even on a mobile plattorm like iOS or Android sell well.
The devs are right about one thing though. Steam is not the golden ticked to sucess it once was. It's a side effect of having openning up the market for any game no matter how subpar it looks. But let's be honestly, if Steam hadn't oppened it's gates we wouldn't even have this article complaining about it. Because with their level of quality Sakari Games would not be one of the developers feature in the platform in the first place.
Strange, normally when I see "something something" it means a quote....
He seems to misunderstand what wishlist numbers mean. While it does help to advertise it to the front page it also is for people to know when it goes on sale. You are not getting big numbers at launch, you get them during sale periods now. That's just how PC is. Even EGS won't fix sale counts regardless of your popularity, they just pay out of pocket instead.
goto Epic games store simple as. steam are ripping off developers. i hope more and more of the bigger games also release on epic like many of them ftp games like path of exhile etc and world of tanks
It’s evaporated water, actually.
