I do this all the time.
I call it full version demos.
I test the games because most of the time it's buggy shit, or AAA games. Few gems here and there and I will pay for them when I know they are good. The 2 hour refund which isn't enough imo...games are designed to be trash after the 2 hours tbh..or at least don't show the trash until after the 2 hour mark.
There has been a few times where I even had to refund after purchasing because the 'totally legit edition' actually worked, whereas the DRM filled trash didn't.
