Terms of Service make it very clear.

14 Days of ownership or 2 hours of game play - which ever comes first.

Read before you click - this is well known and easily searched.

I fail to see how this changes anything.
You get 14 days of ownership or up to 2 hours of game play to change your mind.

Pretty cut and dry.

Except he's played more than 2 hours - but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Maybe but Call of Duty has 3 games in it, he possibly played Warzone which isn't Modern Warfare 3.

I have Mass Effect Legendary - pretty sure If I wanted a refund after ME3 start after 100's of hours in ME1 and 2 - yeah nope.

But again - no harm in asking.

Valve makes exceptions for call of duty a lot. They know activision releases multiple game under the same EXE.

MW3 should be treated as refundable DLC:

REFUNDS ON DOWNLOADABLE CONTENT
(STEAM STORE CONTENT USABLE WITHIN ANOTHER GAME OR SOFTWARE APPLICATION, "DLC")
DLC purchased from the Steam store is refundable within fourteen days of purchase, and if the underlying title has been played for less than two hours since the DLC was purchased, so long as the DLC has not been consumed, modified or transferred. Please note that in some cases, Steam will be unable to give refunds for some third party DLC (for example, if the DLC irreversibly levels up a game character). These exceptions will be clearly marked as nonrefundable on the Store page prior to purchase.

It isn't treated as such. Support can see the separate hours in all the Call of Duty HQ games, WZ/DMZ, MWII and MWIII.

And because none of the titles require each other to play, like DLCs need the base game to play.

DLC isn't a game - but then the lines blur in these situations.

I suppose the Halo Collection would be a good example of one of this situations.
Generally I approach steam with the mindset of "don't plan on asking for a refund"

My Steamdeck purchase MIGHT be an exception to this - but I doubt it....pretty sure it will work out. :)

DLCs require a base game. None of the CoD HQ titles require the others like real DLCs do.

With these types of games, always use the manual refund method.

For those that didn't check. OP now has 13 hours on it so he clearly decided to keep it.

Then it IS being treated as DLC.

Through the automated system, it can't decern the difference.

It says you have played 13.5 hours of MW3. Clearly you are over the limit now.
