    Yeah, what they are saying is that time you spent in the game counts as time you spent in the game. I’m honestly surprised this wasn’t the case all along.

      I’m not familiar with advanced access but I suppose the worry would be whether the game could be changed between then and the final release. If it can, then your play time might not represent the final product.

        I think that’s the thing where if you pre-order the Collector’s Edition or whatever, you get the game 3 days earlier than everybody else, but I could be wrong. If that’s the case though… It seems like yeah why wouldn’t it count toward your refund window?

        It’s hard to imagine the game changing much in that window… But maybe it matters for zero-day patches or something.

    I thought that was how it already worked. I have no sympathy for people that buys early access games and then regret it. It’s has happened time and time again, that people get burned when buy early access, so I think it’s a good change
