Usually yeah. I still pirate them but use it as an extended demo. Still more than 80% of those I drop in less than a couple hours and never play again. Then I’m just happy I didn’t pay for them. Others though like Factorio and Stardew valley I had to buy after pirating. They were just to good not to own.
They still only refund back to your steam wallet though, right? So it’s less a refund and more store credit. Which is better than most digital products, for sure, but still not the same as a non-video game refund.
I don’t, but I definitely don’t think it would be wrong to. IP is an illegitimate idea, and has just as much legitimacy imo as a stranger telling me I’m obligated to pay them to breathe near them. I pay for some games as a donation, not a purchase.
Plus all other media
Don’t pirate indie games and small projects though. They usually deserve the money.

You have the option to return the money to your Steam wallter or the payment method you used.
