    @HogwartsLegacy @Steam since when does midnight release mean 12pm?? fix your ****. We wanna play the game.

  • TheAkrillion Nikke Commander Akril (@TheAkrillion) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support this shouldn't be an issue. An achievement item, with no other way of getting it, going through accidental deletion a decade ago should be restored if requested by the user. You've done this before, why am I the exception here? Why am I being refused?

    @mikethequad @Steam Have you tried steam big picture? I’ve never had a problem with a game using their accessibility platform within steam big picture. You can make a controller into a keyboard and mouse to use on games that don’t allow controllers. Steam is top-tier

    @Steam not being able to do anything unless you have 5$ because people use dummy accounts is good but the problem is many people who dont have access to euro or dollars cant really do anything this change is a change that makes you not be able to get friends or share your opinion

  • Alica2332 alice (@Alica2332) reported

    @XenicAcidDoge @Steam @Steam_Support Hello, If you're in need of a reliable hacker who’s prolific, professional and skilled, look at “jeanson_kelvin” on IG, further In less than a day, this hacker helped me recover my deleted files, he promise to issue a full refund within 24hrs for any reason, he completed the task

    @playgirl69me @HogwartsLegacy @Steam RTX2060, i7-10750, 16GB gaming laptop. It’s totally the game that is the problem, just needs a patch, no other game runs as bad as this one does on my system. I have many games doing 2K at 60.

  • zapalblizh zapalblizh (@zapalblizh) reported

    @1864Memes @AvalancheWB @Steam there's been lots of issues with pc because well, to put it in simple terms, pc can't handle the game. Also computers are not made for games anyways so just buy a console its way better

  • SKYNYRD_DSG SKYNYRD (@SKYNYRD_DSG) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support do you issue refunds on games that have been broken since you bought them? I have spent 24 hours trying to log into the game and its still not fixed. The time on my account is sitting in a log in screen.

    @Steam Yup, Steam needs to fix Hogwarts Legacy.
