bonus points if you pirate, play through the game, and then buy it only if you enjoyed it

which is what happened with frostpunk for me. i made it through the main story once, and bought it and the DLCs at full price. 5 years after it came out.

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.

What happened to the old Virgin vs Chad meme format? That was way better than this one.
