I tend to agree with most of the posts here. If companies still did demos like they used to, you wouldn't need a refund policy. You weren't able to refund a game back to a store if it was opened unless the disc was defective and even then it was a crapshoot on whether it would be accepted back or not.

The one poster is also right about there being a lot of unworthy crappy games. You didn't have that issue when materials had to be purchased: packaging, discs etc. With digital, anything can show up and early access is just...ugh, to me early access seems like nothing more than the old Steam Greenlight garbage. Nothing's guaranteed to be finished in that state and any ones I've seen seem to be more like beta access than early access.

I think over the years I've only refunded about 3 games and I knew in 5 minutes they weren't for me so I think 2 hours is good limit especially if you are playing and unsure about it. I'm probably also a bit on the boring side, I don't really look at games that I don't normally play so that's probably also why my count is so much lower. If I were more adventurous and willing to try games outside my comfort zone, I imagine I'd probably do the same as you.
