The Sims 4 has Origin Great Game Guarantee, basically saying that if you don't like the game, you have 24 hours after you start playing it to get a full refund.
Here's the message :
"IF YOU DON'T LOVE IT, JUST RETURN IT
This game is eligible for the Origin Great Game Guarantee! That means if you don't absolutely love it, we'll give you a full refund. Just make sure you make your request within 24 hours after you first launch the game, within seven days from your date of purchase or within seven days from the game's release date if you pre-ordered, whichever comes first."
So basically, all of you haters out there, stop hating. Get the game, try it out and if you still stand by your opinions refund it.
****CAREFUL I AM NOT SURE BUT THIS MAY BE ONLY FOR THE DIGITAL DELUXE EDITION.****

It's just like boiling a frog! If you try to throw a frog in a warm pot it'll hop right out! But if you put it in mild water and warm it up slowly, the frog won't understand what's happening until it is too late!

I never said it applies only to the Digital Deluxe, I said I was unsure.
Yeah, financial responsibility is something very close to my heart as well. But it's useful information for those who may want to return their game if it turns out they don't like it.
EA has been giving us a chance to try their games for free with game time anyway, so that would probably be a better way of trying out the game for free until you decide to buy it. When/if they ever put TS4 in their game time programme is another matter, however.
In fact, after watching the demos I went back to Origin to confirm that I could return the game if not satisfied. I began thinking I'd wasted my money. And then last night, I got excited again after watching another video. So, we'll see what happens on Tuesday. I don't have to work, so I'll have plenty of time to play with it and make a decision.
I'd say if you are unsure, don't get it at all until you are satisfied with the reviews.
Or get it on another day.
That can't be right, that's just terrible if it is.

Oh dear...

A Guru has already confirmed that time spent in the demo will NOT count toward the 24-hour return policy.

Well thank goodness, that would have been awkward
Good. That was bothering the heck out of me.
And yes you have 24 hours from the time you first started the real Sims 4 ... or til September 9th (7 days later) if you haven't played it.
Also, it doesn't work magically by any means. You HAVE to submit a "Refund Request Form" and wait up to 48 hours, and then if they approve of it.. you'll get your money back in 7-10 days.
So technically, they could royally 🐸🐸🐸🐸 over and you'd have little say against it. Dealing with Origin's customer support has been an absolute nightmare for me in the past, I wouldn't rely on this.. and I advise you all to be wary. Anyways, I digress; if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

I can't speak for other countries, but here in the USA the consumers are protected by law from shady practices like what you describe.
