I think many have a skewed view of China because it has "communist" in the name. It has capitalist markets, billionaires, a widening wealth gap, housing crises, young people asking for more vacation, benefits, and more humane work culture - the very things many Americans believe communism would provide. Meanwhile, many Chinese look to America for the same reason

The OP claims that, but I take anything Pirat_Nation says with a grain of salt because it's mostly sensationalist bs. I had to look up the OG tweet because it's not linked and basically everyone is arguing on hearsay here. Nobody you're talking to here says the policy should go. And the OG dev does not say that the policy must be changed - he critiqued what seems like a plausible case of mass abuse, but leaves correction ambiguous. He tagged Valve that the level of abuse shouldn't be possible, which they themselves claim the right to enforce against abuse. That seems fairly reasonable, and everyone here is dogpiling like even mentioning abuse is anti-consumer. x.com/i/status/20738…

This should not be possible @Steam Would be cool if you could finally do something about your refund policy... Got dozens of reviews like that and 21% refund rate even though the Reviews are 90% very positive... Thats over 55,000 Refunds btw...

@Raist4l @ShneeShaw @AFellowThefo6p @Pirat_Nation Nobody in this thread has EVER suggested that the system needs to be changed. What we are suggesting is that what happened is absolutely "cheating" (read: "abusing") the system, and that's certainly not okay, ethical, nor encouraged by Valve.

@TheChocoboRacer @Raist4l @AFellowThefo6p @Pirat_Nation In Steam's own words: "Abuse Refunds are designed to remove the risk from purchasing titles on Steam—not as a way to get free games." store.steampowered.com/steam_refunds/

@ThaLynxHomie @ShneeShaw @Raist4l @AFellowThefo6p @Pirat_Nation "it happens to higher quality games too" is not a principled support for the surrounding ethics

@Raist4l @AFellowThefo6p @Pirat_Nation It's the moral equivalent of lying to the waitress that she brought the wrong meal after you already finished the plate. Does the ruleset allow it? Maybe. But that doesn't make it ethical.

@AFellowThefo6p @Pirat_Nation "Let the consumer cheat the transaction" is a strange definition of pro-consumer policy.

@tmuxvim Unfortunately many phones (including my own) have absolutely garbage AI post-processing built into the camera now. I need a 3rd party app to simply take a real picture now

@username99555 @AI_EmeraldApple @CultureCrave I've worked professionally in the games industry my entire adult life, and am critical of many choices Sony has made. Losing the licensing rights to 3rd party media is pretty low on the list of things to be upset about.

@TheMan83167101 @AI_EmeraldApple @CultureCrave No I'm telling you that there was a licensing contract in place that has expired - all licensing contracts like this have a term. If anyone is responsible for not renewing that it is likely PlayStation, not the film studios.

@twtayaan The comments full of haters. This is very much needed. Git is awesome, but sucks for game binaries. P4 is a racket, and lacks many good branching features of git. SVN is ancient and branching sucks. This is the only part of the state of Unreal I'm looking forward to.

@AI_EmeraldApple @CultureCrave The Blu-Rays have been available this whole time. The ones suffering from piracy are the movie studios, not PlayStation. Your vengeance is misplaced. If it was unavailable, then you would have more of a leg to stand on, but these films are still available to purchase as of now
