    I hate to say it, but I’m never going to purchase anything on steam. 23 Y/o account with one refund and they’re refusing to refund twenty some dollars for a scam game. Fuck Steam.

        I didn’t even play it for two hours… 48 minutes clocked; between crashing and just sitting there trying to get it to work I roughly played it for 15 minutes. I was 9 days late on requesting a refund, but I have other things to take care of and I had to look up online how to even get a refund now.

        The game was BodyCam; probably the biggest piece of shit I’ve ever played. I generally got the gist that more money was spent on advertising than whatever that garbage is. And look it’s not about difficulty or anything, I wanted to play something between and Arma.

        What I got was the empty pistachio shell. I had more fun with DeadLock, which is also early access and free and not it’s even my style of game; I played it because a friend wanted to.

        The reason I say it’s a scam; I joined their discord sever and of course they announce that they will be doing a collaboration with another game. Like okay, that’s a wtf really? This flaccid garbage isn’t worth the $30 and you’re starting a new project.

        Whoever down-voted me; understand that I had steam since the first week of launch. While at this point it’s better than all the other stuff overall, it sure was a shit show. Most of you don’t understand how annoying it was to buy Half-Life 2 only to have to wait weeks before being able to play it–should have bought the CD version. Or to go from playing CS1.5 at 300 FPS to playing CS1.6 at no higher than 40. And it’s not like I’m not going to keep using Steam, those 800 games aren’t going to play themselves, but I’m not spending a dime again.

          How is bodycam a scam? I’m enjoying atm. I agree there isn’t much to the game right now in terms of game modes and maps, but it’s not like they’re hiding that lol. I suggest you actually look at some let’s plays before buying a game to see what’s currently in it. You bought an early access game and don’t like that the game is still early in development?

            I probably should have watched a streamer instead of their promotional videos. To each his own, but I think the bar for early access has gotten so low I should have expected that I was going to be wasting money on trash.

    In the month after the Sony disc debacle and Microsoft slamming a katana into its own belly?

    Absolutely shocking.
