The game being locked to 30 FPS isn't mentioned on the store page - a right for a refund?
The game is locked to 30 FPS. That isn't mentioned at all in the store page. In my opinion, it definitely should.
I have a 144 Hz monitor and 30 frames per second is literally unplayable for me. I also bought this game on the release day so I've invested a significant amount of money to South Park: The Stick of Truth I'd like to get back.

In your opinion, should Valve refund me? I've already contacted Steam Support.

It's an RPG with animation that's maybe 6 frames per second. You are either a master troll or a compelte imbecile.

I don't get why people get so hostile while they're the idiots. Have you tried it? Have you seen the difference? At 30fps the background stutters when you walk in the city. It's much smoother at 60fps.

A friend recommended this game to me. I watched the trailer and found it very funny.
Knowing South Park and judging by that trailer, I expected sh*tty visuals; I was not disappointed.

Next time you might want to, you know, find out what it is you're buying before you actually, you know, buy it.

I don't mind completely that the game is 30 fps-locked. Can't see what's the problem the OP mentioned.

i feel bad for you never being able to enjoy a movie that runs at 24 fps how ever can you play a game at 30fps

Being locked at 30FPS isn't an issue.

I use SmoothVideo Project (SVP).
i was refering to dvds or blu ray and watching movies at the cinema

SVP can increase the fps of blu-rays and DVDs.

yes but whats the point wont look or seem any better also not to split hairs here but if he is watching digital movies and using svp it is not a dvd or blu ray also is he saying he has never enjoyed a film untill SVP was made available?

It's subjective if it looks better, I think so.
You can't use SVP on a DVD or blu-ray? Probably with the right player? I never tried.
I can't speak for Super Meat Boy but I'd guess that he can still enjoy a film without SVP it jus makes it a little better, nice thing to have imho.

Edit: A friend owns the game.

No, it's not "literally" anything, and it's certainly not "unplayable". Holy spoiled brat, first world problems.

Obvious troll is obvious.
