The PC version of The Last of Us Part 1 has had a tumultuous start since its release, with many gamers expressing frustration over the Steam platform. Despite these complaints, Steam offers refunds for playing, no matter how long you play.
The Last of Us Part 1's extended shader compilation time for mid-range PCs explains why the game was refunded. That's more than twice the Steam's time limit for refunds.
The Last of Us Part 1 has been delayed for about 30,000 customers since its release, although this was not the first time.
Some players who were experiencing difficulties due to insufficient memory, performance, and other reasons have received a recent patch. For those who are dissatisfied, a refund through Steam may be the most appropriate option. Naughty Dog, a developer, has acknowledged the difficulties and is working on solutions to resolve them. Only time will tell how they deal with them.
