Drag's refund request for Planescape Torment was denied by Steam. The game has sat in drag's inventory for several months, but drag has only played for 8 minutes and in that time decided not to play it.

Drag would like advice on gaming the Steam refund system, because drag doesn't agree with their reason for denying the refund. Are there any gamebreaking bugs or problems like that which Steam might accept?

Drag will post the reason for wanting a refund in a comment, and asks that you confine discussion of drag's reason or why drag should just enjoy the game to underneath that comment, so that the rest of the thread can be about the actual question.

Why do you write like an orc? Is there an rpg reason for this? Or is this something personal I am totally missing?

"I" is gender neutral no?

As for your actual question, steam is insanely flexible with refunds, but you're pushing it with a request 7.5months after the generous 14days.

Drag is aware that it's bad manners to answer a question with a question, but where did you and the other person get the "8 months" figure from?

Several months and the 8 minutes probably lead to confusion. You haven't my answer yet. Why do you speak like an orc in third person?

Because drag uses first person neopronouns. Drag's drag/dragself pronouns are person independent. They're inflected and conjugated the same way in all grammatical persons. They represent drag's identity as a dragon rider.
