Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Aria Amaryllis (@AriaALake) reported@YawenCh69 @Zoroarts @Steam Name literally any other product or service that you can buy and use to its fullest extent and still get a refund for it without extenuating circumstances.
-
Rick, Ancient Feline (@ThatFuzzyTiger) reported@Zoroarts @Steam The positive take is that you have an adhesion rate of 81% or circa 200k sales in the bag. You appear to be in the rather niche bracket of "really successful" and "short enough that the refund window is a problem"
-
kazım öğünmez (@kzmogunmez) reported@upgradepcfr @Steam Similar problem @KarenVault on X sorted it out.
-
Rick Rhymes (@OneWorldEndz) reported@PlayStation Your PSN online service is garbage. Speeds are slow as turtles. You should learn how @valvesoftware @Steam runs a network.
-
Calli Tahmo (@BrokenSerenity) reported@ToanChan_ @Steam @Steam_Support yeah its stupid that they just dont care, they could just check account age to determine such things and cut out the need for a credit card...works for this site and a few others so idk what steams problem is.
-
♨️ (@olybuzz) reporteda rising tide lifts all boats . . shouldn't @Sony offer service to relicense old Playstations so gamers can format hardware as @Steam box or otherwise run utility software like DVR, SDR tuner, or "Digital DM" LLM nodes for role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons? @Wizards_DnD
-
OrwellWasAnOptimist (@moltensnow) reported@Zoroarts @Steam >Makes a very short game with apparently 0 replayabilty. >People refund (their right) >Despite refunding (their right), they recommend & help the game >"StEaM pLeAsE sToP tHeM!1!!" You are the problem, bud.
-
Calli Tahmo (@BrokenSerenity) reported@ToanChan_ @Steam yeah ive had this problem for awhile now, and they literally dont give a damn when you ask them why, just spout the usual nonsense about always looking for new ways to make things easier to do then not actually using any of the better methods to age verify...like you account age.
-
Infowarrior 1984 (@Juan_c_rodr) reported@PlayStation I reject the all digital future pushed by the WEF. If that future comes into fruition, the future of gaming should belong to @Steam. I simply don't trust Playstation thanks to previous censorship, woke tendency in the company, dynamic pricing, bad customer service, etc. #FSONY!
-
SirSlender🎩🧐 (@SirSlender) reported@obakepam @Steam Dare one wonder why the quality of a finished game suddenly becomes irrelevant the moment one learns a tool was used? If the only difference between enjoyment and disdain is knowledge of AI involvement, the issue was never the game.
-
gfodor.id (@gfodor) reported@OlexGameDev @Zoroarts @Steam You don’t see an issue with someone playing a game for free by exploiting a refund policy?
-
Blaze Wright (@nwright14) reportedDear @SquareEnix can you please fix the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Pc Port on @Steam Its too janky, too many bugs and makes it impossible to play and enjoy. #Finalfantasyviirebirth
-
Erza (@Erza_Oficial) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Nothing against you or your game, but if your game only offers less than 2h of content then that's more a you problem rather than the person playing
-
smmfhbaldytrips (@UDontLikeSupes) reported@CallofDutyWire @ETGEACOLLEGE Dis you pre ordered it? Because that seems to be the issue. @Steam wouldn't refund me because they said I've played the game for 2 hours lmao
-
CrowFly (@CrowFly69) reported@Zoroarts @Steam This is a you problem. Maybe fit more than an hour and a half of gameplay.
-
HowlingHenry (@HowlingFord) reported@gaersstapa @Zoroarts @Steam He can complain about the system being unfair for short games (it is) but the system is inherently better regardless due to the fact that anyone with tech problems or other limitations can always get their money back after buying a game on steam
-
We the Indies, Game Discs 💿 (@WetheIndies) reported@Zoroarts @Krazerack @Steam They just have no decency or appreciation for another person’s great work. Sorry for the trouble.
-
Kevin Greene (@Phasmatis75) reported@ThatFuzzyTiger @Zoroarts @Steam Personally I like the idea of percentage of achievements or unlocking the ending achievement. Devs cannot just achievement dump on you as Steam forbids that, so it would be a good middle ground solution. I don't believe in ignoring problems when they're small so I can deal with them when they're big.
-
Admiral Betweener (@a_betweener) reported@ToanChan_ @Steam Debit card worked for me, It's highly possible that it only accepts credit cards in your region due to country laws and such. i'm in Canada and it accepted my debit card no problem.
-
OrionGaming (@GamingOrio59278) reported@Steam @Steam I have an ask, "can you keep an eye on @survivetheark developers?" They are releasing DLC unfinished, unpolished and broken. Also, I think that the Early Access Game tag is false advertising. This game is literally the reskinned of the old version with very basic addons.
-
Brent Caulfield (@BrentCaulfield) reported@Cyberw0t @Zoroarts @Steam I totally agree. Its not something I would do and I think its basically stealing. Especially if you enjoyed it. I just don't see how Steam can fix that problem without introducing a lot of other problems.
-
𝓐𝓽𝓪𝓴𝓪𝓷 (@atakanyr7) reported@Steam @Steam_Support My computer was hacked because of the Wallpaper Engine app; they tried to steal my emails and there were suspicious login attempts. My Riot account was also stolen, and I am currently a victim of this situation. I need your help to resolve it.
-
gfodor.id (@gfodor) reported@OlexGameDev @Zoroarts @Steam I don’t need to provide a solution to avoid concluding there isn’t one. I’m pretty confident it can be solved, it’s rooted in a classification problem. I have like 5-10 ideas just sitting here that I would try if I worked at Valve and cared enough to try to fix it.
-
Oldman Joey (@OldmanJoey77) reported@PlayStation Most of your customers will just go to @Steam. They have better service and the games don't get removed. Good luck with this idea.
-
Darrell williams (@2000_pip) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Never refunded a game ever but I would like to think I could if I had a real problem with the game I think there police is perfect the way it is there going to all ways be ppl that exploit it but the reverse is the company use it to exploit the consumer a middle is what we have
-
𝖙𝖗𝖝𝖘𝖍 ✨ (@trxshfl0wer) reported@__Amber_Lynn_ @ToanChan_ @Steam it’s uk law, sites with adult content require age verification. there’s been pushback about facial scans and id scans so some some sites have opted for credit cards. problem is credit isn’t as popular over here, i don’t have one either, means ur locked out of 18+ games
-
Mysticism (@Mysticism030) reported@NoMansSky Got some good issues going on with MP with this update Sean if even @PlayStation is talking days longer than normal to accept this patch. Can’t even play with my friends who are on @Steam. When will you guys learn to fix your game fully. MP issues and problems for yrs upon yrs
-
Fyro - TheFrozenBox (@FrozenBox) reportedThis is disgusting. If you complete a game, your entitlement for a refund is void. Just like eating at a restaurant. You consume, you don't get a refund. @Steam should fix this.
-
グリム 楓 (@Grim_Maple) reportedSometimes I just want to gift my friends a game on steam, but somehow I can't because of my region. Heck, I'm down to pay whatever it is in their region, just give me an option to! @Steam fix pls I'm begging you
-
