Naughty Dog Refund Strategy

Not Recommended 2.2 hrs on record (1.8 hrs at review time) POSTED: MARCH 28 Naughty Dog have discovered an incredible strategy here. It goes a little something like this: Step 1: Release a technological disaster of a game after drumming up hype and pre-orders. Step 2: "Build Shaders" in the main menu to run up the clock. Step 3: Victim's refund window has almost expired by the time they get in-game and realize. Step 4: Profit. Hoping to see some big names adopting this strategy. After all, they clearly cared more about developing it than this port.

A Steam review marked “Not Recommended” accuses Naughty Dog of releasing a poorly optimized game and using shader compilation to consume players’ refund time. The joke is a sarcastic conspiracy theory about profiting from pre-orders while players discover the bad port too late to get a refund.
