    I wonder if it’s going to take several hours to download all the world content before allowing into you into the menu screen like MSFS2020 does.

    I wonder if they’ll insist on using MS servers for the content and will be kept at MS server caps at 5MBPS, meaning that it will take 20+ hours of downloading before you can even play, pulling you outside of the 2 hour Steam return window.

      Afaik Steam does refund games if you tell support that you spent time troubleshooting or waited for the launcher to download the actual files.
      Though I only think to have read about it. No concrete proof.

        Hell, they’ve been refunding Linux users for GTAV this week because of the change to BattleEye.

        Years ago, I tried cities skylines on a sort of shitty PC… spent at least 8 hours trying to get it to work, then just gave up.

        Requested a refund and it was granted almost immediately.

        I bought a better PC and repurchased, and not it runs fine but the game itself is pretty mod dependent and I have spent more time installing and uninstalling mods than actually playing the game.

        So yes, ask for a refund and you will probably get it even outside the 2hour window.
