Two hours isn't enough for most games, at least for me. I couldn't count how many games I've plunderer and never touched again after a few hours.
I get you, there are some games where you can barely pass through the tutorial in 2 hours, other games are super complex let's say Paradox strategy games. On the other hand, 2 hours is much more than nothing. And it's hard to balance, think of some indie games where 2 hrs is like 25% of the game, it can be abused easily.
The system is especially useful for shitty games that were hyped but get released as unstable alpha or old games that just won't run on your system for whatever reason. I know, a lot of publishers are pure evil with their release and DLC policies and I can understand people develop anger towards the whole industry. But all in all I think it's a nice-have.
