Game Demos for games that cost

[iuliancalin]

often i bought a game a had it refunded cause i suck at it or the game sucks. anyway can we get like a 20 min demo for those games
having to pay for it and refund it, it can be a bit uncomfortable
so how about that idea ?

Research. Theres user reviews, theres written reviews, theres millions of reviews on YouTube, theres no excuse not to research.

do research like watching Let's Plays and reading reviews before buying games? There are ways to find out if you will like a game before buying it.

If you buy too many games and refund them (and appear to be using the refund system to "demo" games), Valve will revoke your ability to refund games at all... even ones that legit don't work. So do not refund too many games in this way!!

i did that and still found games that i can't play or i don't like how the graphics look
doesn't work

[iuliancalin]

Hanomaly, that is what i mean. i don't want to do that

You know how the graphics look from watching a good video review. As for "can't play", what do you mean by that? If you suck, thne git gud.

You may have noticed how I said "reviews" and not "let's plays". Reviews, the good ones, explain what's going on, tell you what may be wrong with the control scheme or difficulty (in my experience two most common issues hidden by gameplay videos). I dare to say that you wouldn't know how ridiculously hard Dark Souls is from merely watching someone playing.

The next part of the answer is: Know yourself. Learn of your weaknesses and watch out for games "preying" on them. How exactly are your fingers disabled? Do you have problems with quick reaction or can you not handle more than, let's say, 5 buttons? Looks specifically for games suit your disability.

i don't have a disability. its just i can't really play complicated games
i manly play Rocket League with a controller
but wen it comes to FPS like cs:go i suck and rage fast , very fast
i played supraland, actually finished the game (only game ever finished)
and then, how is that others opinion ok, but then wen i try it i don't like it
its not that complicated to understand me
i just want steam to give me the posibility to just try it for a short time thats all

1. Stop raging, start practicing.
2. Play another FPS. CS is hands down among the most punishing FPS there is. Why not trying something friendlier? CoD series is rather simplistic, my personal favorite would be Killing Floor 2 or Team Fortress 2. Both are way easier to get into.
3. Why not playing other gamepad games? Rocket League aint the only one.
4. You won't get the possibility to try out games. Learn to understand reviews.
5. Why not playing a singleplayer game? Those things have difficulty settings. Play on easy, problem solved.

As I was saying, learn to understand reviews. Don't go with "Woho, this gameplay video looks great for the 15 seconds I've been watching it". Grab a review, grab a couple, learn to parse them. And yeah, don't buy FPS if you don't like them.

you do not get to decide who can post in a thread. if you want that power, make your own forum.

If you want a game demo, ask the game developer. It takes time to make a game demo, and that time can be spent improving a game.
