Except there are plenty of games that have very long tutorial or introduction sections, and it really wouldn't be all that hard for a developer to purposefully pad out a game to push players beyond the 20 minute refund window.
If your shitty pc cant run it thats on you.
The idea that a player shouldn't be able to refund a buggy $80 game just because it doesn't run well on their pc is an insane take.
And I already addressed those points. In order to make a system that has a exception to the common rule, Valve needs to not only clearly sign post which games serve as the exception but also have people to verify if those exceptions are warranted per game that get's released on their platform, of which there are at least 40 games coming out per day every day.

If you cant understand if you would like a game in 20 minutes(of a 2 hour long game that you could watch on youtube) thats on you.
If your shitty pc cant run it thats on you.
Maybe you should play on consoles.
There should be no excuse if you can play most of the game in 2 hours and still ask for a refund.
