This seems fine? Is there an anticonsumer angle or something that I failed to notice?

Early access games can change drastically over the course of development. And can turn into a different game at release. I’m my opinion that’s still not a valid reason to get a refund if you put in many hours into the game already. As a consumer you should know that something like that can happen with a game that is still in development. You assume that risk.

I think this is more for "preorder pig fucker 6 and play a day early!" type of things, the refund timer probably didn't start until the game actually came out so you could play 24+4 hours before being denied a refund

How dare you make this comment and not drop a link to the game. You must hate indie devs!

Honestly you're not missing anything. The Pig Fucker series peaked at PF3: Stuck Pig. Four and five were clearly low-effort cash grabs.
