    10/10

    the refund system is genuinely one of the best things any digital storefront has ever done. no questions asked under 2h played.

  3. xXDragon_opRating: 2/5Verified

    Not great

    used to be my go-to but the recent changes are just bad. worse UI, more ads, less features. whats happening.

  4. alexei_brRating: 5/5Verified

    Awful experience

    been on steam for like 10 years now and it just keeps getting better. the summer sales alone justify everything lol imo

    honestly the best gaming platform out there. huge library, decent sales, and my games actually work. what more do you want personally

  9. NeonHackXxRating: 3/5Verified
