    It's scummy that they only refund you if you play mostly on Mac and not if you play on Mac at all.

    If you drop support for a platform, you should refund ALL the players on that platform.

    I'm tired of billions dollar corporations taking away paid content from buyers and attaching all these asterisks to your compensation.

      Are you seriously suggesting. I boot up CS Go on some random macbook and get a full refund while I can still play a legacy build of the game that does support mac.

        No, I'm suggesting players who bought an unplayable game get a refund.

        It's reasonable to apply it to players before the refund announcement only, just not making it depend on hours played on Mac vs other platforms.

        If you had a steam deck and play on that and tally more hours there you're still losing your paid game on your Mac. But if you refund you shouldn't get to continue playing on steam deck n

          So its a nothing burger for you…

          If you have more hours on your steam deck than your mac. Whats the point since you wouldn't want the refund. So either you accept that you are asking for something completely unrealistic. I want it to be noted that I was very miffed at Valve because they killed CSGO in an easily accessible way (at launch). You are requesting they shouldn't care about the hours you play your thing on. Having a "mostly" played on mac requirement makes sense. They aren't going to give you a number of hours/percentage and simply saying I played it for 2 minutes to test if it actually worked on a mac shouldn't count as a "refundable" thing.
