Hello Games’ woes with No Man’s Sky for PC continues to bother gamers as well as its developers. In the meantime, Game Revolution reports that Steam has quietly started accepting refund requests from the PC users regardless of the play hours. Following that, even Sony and Amazon U.S. is issuing refunds to the buyers irrespective of the play hours clocked, reported Gadgets 360. The game is available via Steam, Sony, and Amazon for $59.99.

Launched on PC earlier this month, thousands of Steam users who paid for No Man’s Sky weren’t happy with the game’s performance and stability. Earlier this week, Hello Games released three patches and shared the details in lengthy release notes on the Steam Community forum.
No Man’s Sky is a sandbox-style, space exploration game set in a massive universe that procedurally generates worlds. Starting off as an explorer, drift in the space exploring new planets and trading items from your inventory. The game features 18 quintillion planets to visit and explore. That sure makes it feel tedious, and of endless scale. In fact, you might end up spending an entire lifetime exploring every nook and cranny of each planet. However, the same idea might be transfixing for those who love such games, reports Vox.
The word about Steam offering a refund for No Man’s Sky spread via Reddit. A user named whaaatcrazy posted, “Just heard on a random twitch channel they’re giving the refund, so I gave it a shot even though I tried the day it came out, AND HOLY S**T IT WORKED.”
Steam’s official refund policy states the following.
General grievance among the gamers is that No Man’s Sky doesn’t work as advertised in the trailers and promotional materials. A massive Reddit post that listed all the missing features promised by Sean Murry, Hello Games founder, got deleted but has been archived on a website amusingly called One Man’s Lie, as per a Steam Community post.
Hello Games has already released five patches for the PlayStation 4 version of its game. The game developer plans to fix the crashing issues entirely in coming weeks.
