if the game was bought through steam aka not by a third party site or by a cd key, is it still possible to get a refund?

Yes, I know, they rarely ever grant one and even that is a one time gesture but I really ned to know if its worth trying or not

Maybe.

If you live in a country with half-decent consumer protection laws (UK or some EU), there's a good chance. Valve bitch about it, but they are bound by the laws of the country they are selling in.

You may still get lucky anyway, particularly if it's your first time, but don't expect the process to be quick...

Why would you get a refund? If you have bought the game you can still play and download it. Just another purchase is not possible.

Valve doesn't give refunds for "I didn't like it." in most cases. Supposedly you can get a 1 time only per account refund for any reason though.

it is well possible, you just need to keep on your toes and not let your demand down.

It's always worth trying. It shouldn't take you more than a few minutes to write up a nice sounding request and send it. As long as you have no time logged on the game, they might see it in their hearts to forgive it, or possibly at least release it into a tradeable gift.

That said, i do doubt they will actually do it, but those two minutes are always worth the time on the off chance that you meet a generous supporter.

quick question: do they give you back the full price for it or there are exceptions?

They give you back what you paid in Steam. So, if you got it on heavy sale, you get back only a fraction of the base price.
