Steam needs to seriously investigate this further and hopefully refund anyone that purchased this through them in the past month. With the team "resigning" or being laid off by a board of directors that the community was told would never even exist because of how the game was funded, this reeks of fraud and lies. I know they have a typical strict policy for refunds - 2 hours or less game time played and no longer than 2 weeks after purchase, but there should be some exceptions to the rule. This should have never been allowed to be released on Steam.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. There is no future for Ashes of Creation now. The fact it's still listed on Steam to purchase is a bit concerning.
