    Maybe have a new rule for shorter games, like if its reasonable to complete the game normally in under 5 hours then the 2 hour window should be 1 hour or even 30 minutes. Idk how games are submitted but it should be an option at that time on how long the game is or a question about if its over or under x hours long so they know how to treat the game for this policy.

      That’s where the abuse comes in, because how can you be sure a developer won’t make a short game and list it as 20hrs to complete?

        A dev that is abusing the system is going to be delisted by Valve real quick, methinks.

      Enough rules, enough automations, I say, just make steam actually hire some real customer service humans. What? They can’t afford it?
