GOG.com now offers cashback regardless of how long you've been playing the game

GOG.com has changed its rules slightly regarding the refund policy for purchased games.

The CD Project team has made another move that GOG.com users might like. They changed the policy regarding seeking a refund for the game purchased. Now that process has significantly fewer restrictions, especially compared to the one on Steam.

Specifically, you can now buy a game from GOG.com and receive a refund within 30 days of purchase, regardless of how long you have played the game. Of course, that's the way it is on paper and in theory. We have yet to see the practice, but GOG.com says they are ready for possible abuse attempts.

They are aware that 30 days is enough for most of the games to be played and for the player to try to claim their money by himself without a valid reason for refund. The team therefore advises that they will monitor such cases and will refuse a refund if they determine that it is to the detriment of the game manufacturer.

In translation, it might be time for you to play a game for several tens of hours and then ask for a refund. However, this will remain on the record and if you try to do the same again, CD Projekt will determine that you are abusing the system and will deny you a refund.
