It makes sense since some games you may need more time to get a good idea of what they are than others, plus for some games 5h is just a small portion of it, while others you can finish in this time.
lots of work to do here!
I forgot about this stuff. How do developers like it?
Haven't seem any info from them yet.
don't get it... to play those games in 'non-trial' mode, what is the plan to subscribe?
Not sure I understand your question
You have to buy the games to keep playing them
Would be cool if they do a GP type offer to give some good discount for people that played the trial or for games that have their trial there (but well their announcement is that all games over 34USD or something like that needs to offer trial within a certain time).
Yes, I feel like that would be a great idea. Maybe they'll try it sometime.
