Helldivers 2's Steam reviews have tanked since announcing the need to link Steam to PSN, but Arrowhead say it's Sony's fault and they're on players' side.
A) you have to trigger a manual review (your first attempt will be denied by a bot, second refund request is usually manually reviewed). So you have to request a refund at least twice.
B) get lucky, because not everyone seems to be getting refunds.
It may be a regional thing (giving refunds to people who live in areas where PSN isn’t available), or it could just be pure luck.
Personally, I don’t have the game. I was interested in getting it, but I’ve lost a lot of interest due to this move. However, I wanted to help let people know that it’s worth asking for a refund, but that they may need to submit a second request before it’s approved.
Same. I was getting bored and tired of the balance patch > bug cycle. Figured I’d put it down till probably the illuminate arrival. Now I guess I won’t get the experience of being the only diver fighting the squids like in the first game. Shame, but I got my money’s worth.
Yeah it’s fucked. I was taking a bit of a break, maybe it becomes a permanent one.
Unfortunately they already have your money.
I was on vacation and planning to buy it when I got back and encourage all my ex LOL friends to join too, but…
Thank you for your service.
Sounds like Steam may be allowing refunds for this. Worth a try
I’ve heard that

You won’t know until you try.

I tried a 2nd time and no dice on a manual review. Same automated message.
Steam is currently granting refunds regardless of play time. Open a support ticket (the automated system is still subject to the default rules).
