So now more people are going to use Origin?

Indeed, Origin will get more recognition, but I wonder if they will make a loss by doing this.

I have always liked Origin. More fair price convert for us Europeans, than on Steam. What kind of logic is it to consider 1$ = 1€? 0.o

I honestly don't care about returning for money back. Before I buy a game, I put a lot of time into watching videos and stuff about it so I know exactly what its like. Origin has a nice idea but imo, idc.

If steam had that id return half of my games i bought and dont even play at all.... Stupid steam summer sales.

Imagine if you could do this with the humble bundle games.

I thought the same thing... Get full. Credit yet paying like 2 $. What a scam that wud be for returning every game...

Wouldn't work on steam because of the atrocious steam support they have and they have their head up their arses at the moment, EA is slowly making a comeback.

Smart of them to put this out now and not when Simcity came out.

Could you imagine the economy drop then.

 

But i be honest. Having been fucked over by EA so many times, that in the end, it's obviously a milking company. I cant help but think this is "Refund within our terms." Or who knows, maybe they actually changed and are starting to realize the milk is getting sour and need more customer added to it.

Yeah EA is definitely making a comeback. Now i wonder what Steam will do(if anything) to try and top the new guarantee.
