8 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written July 2026 to October 2026.

Inside the two-hour refund window, 49 percent of the 5,001 reviews written there were positive, against 89 percent overall, and those are 2 percent of everything written about it.
The main story runs 46.6 hours. Doing everything runs 435, 9.3 times as long.
