MildMillenial (@MildMillenialUS) reported@painmute @Moonie__OS @Steam There is the problem.
-
Brenten Smith (@Brenten007) reported@EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom I just went to the weapons control panel on a builder ship and the game ******* crashed. The worst part I deleted one of my save games and still there are errors.
-
Chauncey (@chauncey_NYC) reported@studiozaum @Steam Any idea if this will address some of the other sound/voiceover issues? I’ve encountered issues with both the guy at the top of the pylon and the music seller guy in the bazaar, halfway through a conversation the dialogue voice over will just stop playing.
-
The Older Gamer Guy (@TheOldrGamerGuy) reported@Steam @Steam_Support This issue was resolved after we connected to a stable internet connection. Only then did our decks open as normal. Did they have to download something extra? Times differed.

🇺🇸 King Elsydeon 🇺🇸 (@King_Elsydeon) reported@obakepam @Steam AI is not a problem. Shovelware predates AI by years.
-
Alex Stanger (@alexstanger1993) reportedCan someone please tell me how to deal with a @Steam update glitch? I've been stuck with one for @TheSims 4 for a while (probably on and off for most of the time since I last played in April 2023), so your help would be appreciated 🎮

Aegis of Avalon (@AegisOfAvalon) reported@Pirat_Nation @Steam @valvesoftware In an ideal world yes, but it's more to the effect of a grandfathered in aspect. Roughly 75% of everyone is there, other options are almost moot, as a cult following talks about convenance, and then complains about every aspects it creates. If one want's to be able to refund any game, expect that game to be 100 dollars, especially when purchasing it from a 3rd party store front. Don't mistake the issue. This is not a "Steam" issue, it's an informed consumer issue. So what Gabe Newell says is technically true, but the users are on auto pilot to the next fad, not proper investment. It is the consumer that makes Steam a "monopoly", not Steam/Valve itself. #StopKillingGames #DirectSupport #FundAllocation

Daniel Ericksen (@Erickdanielson9) reported@Steam @Steam_Support How do I make a ticket if I can’t login? I need assistance. No phone number. No email. Just the app which I can’t log into. If I lose thousands of dollars in games I’m going to be so upset. I just need to talk to someone for 5-10 minutes.
-
Lucas NC (@Nc61706525Nc) reported@Steam, why does this error occur? Error There was a problem trying to follow this Steam Curator. Possible reasons: You cannot follow a curator that you are already ignoring. You can only follow up to 100 curators at the same time. Limited accounts cannot follow a curator. OK
-
AbelsFables (@AbelsFables25) reported@ToanChan_ @Steam Hear me out maybe don’t blame stream but blame your gov forcing steam to have to do this? I know a lot of people who use a debit card but clearly uk wont let steam use that to verify,they had face recognition and it was abused with ai n fake pics sooooo 🙃 blame the real issue
-
spicynoodle (@realspicynoodle) reported@2_left_thumbs @Steam I can see it being a surprise to some that it got removed and replaced with "capybara". And I can see how the old tag helped find similar games, but I don't really see the huge issue. Actually I don't know why I even commented to be honest lol my opinion isn't very strong here.
-
NRVDMG (@NRVDMG97) reported@CounterStrike dog **** game full of cheaters 🫠 Why can't @Steam make it that if you have a game ban of any sort you shouldn't be allowed to play online games And multie van bans. gee I wonder how low life this guy is. Fix your ******* game so I can just play against 5 legits!
-
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.
-
Dan Bowman ✝️ (@dplancephd) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam this looks like a fun game what’s the problem?
-
Pablo (@CaptHanSolo_) reported@rauriinterlude @DarkHoursGame @Steam I’m in the middle of nowhere on orders until tomorrow 🫡😭 I don’t even have service to watch reels
-
WraithMedia86 (@WraithM86) reportedMy night is going so well tonight… @Steam : “You need to change your password because it’s the one we set for you.” Me: resets password Steam: “that’s not the right password” Me: *goes through the “forgotten password” dialogue* Steam: “Too many login attempts. Try again later”🙃
-
Crypto Pro (@CryptoPro2008) reported@ARCRaidersGame #ARCHEATRS Dear @Steam and @Xbox, why is ARC Raiders being sold for $40 when the cheating problem is ruining the experience for legitimate players? Consumers deserve better. Where is the accountability?
-
Light (@Victor606_) reported@Grummz @Steam And let's not talk about how buggy the Xbox system really is. they have server issues all the time, and I'm speaking from my anecdotal experience. Xbox has had so many major issues in their services. this is because of how sloppy Microslop's work is
-
Ivan Ironfist (@IvanIronfist) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam - Big hit reg issue causing you to hit slaves by accident - Lots of micro at the start - No mechanics explanation but not too hard to figure out - Needs more lore and house staff - Needs slaves of different races with different buffs - Cost $1 which is not bad but lacks content
-
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
-
Brenten Smith (@Brenten007) reported@EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom Now the game keeps ******* crashing, damn it!!! I was flying to the first gate and crashed the game just as it closed. Tried to get the error message and nothing!!!
-
Samuel Williams (@SamuelWill64467) reported@OKarma_OK @Steam @Steam_Support I had this issue and ADCGSECURE took care of it.

ReaperX7 (@reaperx7gaming) reported@LundukeJournal @Steam wayland is broken trashware. Nobody wants broken trashware. X11 or ****.
-
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
-
yoshi314 (@wengo314) reported@obakepam @Steam i have a problem with this. you can have a game that was prototyped with ai or ai was used for some minute details. and you can have lazily made game that's really lazy ai slop. and both would fall under this umbrella.
-
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.
-
The Digital Archaeologist (@TheDataTomb) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam It’s a game that teaches about history. I don’t see the problem.
-
Who asked? (@dyural) reported@ToanChan_ @Fromp_Tman @Steam then what's your problem?
-
King of the wolves (@xSnowyNights) reported@Steam this better not go through, this is literally the only way i can buy games on steam. terrible move. scammers aren't the problem, the idiots buying from them are since they lack a frontal lobe.
-
plutogam3r (@beestinging7) reported@DigitalActOfGod @Moonie__OS @Steam Steam does allow these. Also I need to say people publish all sorts of games every single day, I bet it is hard to keep up with how much gets published on the platform. Bringing up any issues with a game is one step in the right direction though before automatically thinking
