I played 10hrs on Steam then refunded.
I was expecting a 2023 game with 12 years of development and 6 months delay for polish.
I got Fallout 4 (2015) with scifi-skin.

The thing that pissed me off the most:
It's not as open and "huge scale" as people seem to think it is. It's kind of "fake open" if that makes sense. You cannot get into your ship and fly 800m east to your mission. If you do that, a new instance is loaded and your mission is not there. You have to run that 800m.

How do you refund after 10 hours? You get 2 hours max i thought

2 hours max for a guaranteed refund, anything else (within 2 weeks) needs to be approved by a human to make sure you're not just beating the game and returning it after.

Steam are usually nicer with games that is not officially released yet.

I am the person who will cheese distance running in NMS by triangulating an objective and summoning my ship to it, and Starfield apparently says "lol nope motherfucker you're walking"
