𝓢𝔀𝓪𝓷 ୨ৎ (@1Lelur) reported@Parafolkmore @Steam @ParalivesGame Oh hm, if the cpu temp is higher than recommended then yeah that is an issue. But if the temp is fine I don't think you need to worry about it too much & I find that the "huge" mods get a bit heavy on my pc, but "small mods" such as for costume or optimization aren't as demanding
-
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 🎮
-
Brenten Smith (@Brenten007) reported@EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom One more thing, I wish you guys add in the extension mod where you check the mods and siee if the mods work before your game crash.
-
James Arslan (@JamesArslanSwe) reportedMassive props to @Steam . Courier dropped my Steam Controller 4 hours from my address (same one my Steam Deck reached just fine), couldn't be rerouted — so they sent a replacement AND gifted me Forza Horizon 6 to make up for it. Downloading now. This is how customer service should work 🎮 @ForzaHorizon
-
James Barlett (@James_Barlett) reported@valvesoftware @Steam This is a ****** service! I reserved one minute past 10 pacific and I’ve been waiting 15 days for a chance to buy it! I could understand if I took my time reserving! Valve you need to do better!
-
Samy (@LongDuZgegs) reported@tbsun13 @Moonie__OS @Steam Yeah, and? If I find it funny and even want to pay for that game, what’s the problem? Mind your own business.
-
Josiah Young (@Inv3ntive15) reportedI’ve struggle bussed with all kinds of support from companies in this last year. Incompetent support, slow support, non-existent support… Had an issue with my Steam Deck and @Steam solved it in about two hours. If the world gotta get run by big corps, I’d choose Steam.
-
Pathos (@DreamRemnants) reported@EA @Steam probably should have extended refund period if this is a known issue.
-
Daniel Ericksen (@Erickdanielson9) reported@Steam @Steam_Support I need help, I can't sign into steam support to enter a ticket because I'm encountering a log in error. I attempted to change my password but have no gone over the attempts. Every PW change kicked me out to an error. Can't find any other way to contact
-
HorrorAmorata🌌🦑✨The Abysmal Critic (@HAmorata) reported@ServiusTheBear @Steam ... that wasn't my point at all. I think it's hilarious and have 0 issues with it. There's absolutely no reason to remove such a silly nothing.
-
CHRISTOPHER D. BRAND (AUTHOR) (@CHRISDBRAND) reportedAnd just to take the piss, I had Invisible War as I bought the two together but that game just crashes on start, which turns out is a well known bug without a fix. So again @Steam cheating me out of a purchase. If they don't refund it I'm not buying from Steam any more. **** 'em.
-
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.
-
Levi ✨ (@FlockMasterLevi) reported@Slayer_Int777 @Moonie__OS @Steam That’s the problem ********
-
Jordan Barrand (@0X_Barrand) reported@PedroAntunes999 @Steam @Steam_Support Sorry to hear you're having trouble accessing your account. Do you still have access to the original email address associated with the account?
-
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

TextualFalls (@FallsTextual) reported@LPNintendoITA @Pirat_Nation @Steam They did for their Launcher. Problem is the game uses a third party launcher and Account so Ea Can do it.
-
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.
-
Sethix (@se7hix) reportedSo, additional work ahead of @Steam and @Steam_Support ahead regarding all software in their store, because if they are providing malware they will have serious trouble, this has happened before and if it continues happening valve is showing that's a platform no longer safe.
-
Mehmet (@Antepli_4EVER) reported@valvesoftware @Steam First fix the cheating problem in cs go 2
-
Netleaf 🇺🇸 (@netleaf2) reported@Steam Will you please fix the damn steam client? I just had to redownload a 100GB game because I couldn't move it due to a 'content lock file' error. That is total nonsense, total bullshit. If I had moved the files manually it would have worked fine. But I'd rather cost you money.
-
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.
-
Daniel Fryer (@Danielandtails) reported@ToanChan_ @Steam @ToanChan_ I have the exact same problem...I raised a ticket with steam, and they said they would make a note of my feedback, which essentially goes nowhere
-
Blademan Unit Pi (@blademanunitpi) reportedTurned on #XboxMode on my original ROG ALLY (@ASUS_ROG) — docked with no eGPU — and it completely fixed the disconnection issues I was having with #MarvelRivals and @Steam remote play. Setup: ROG ALLY docked → streaming via Steam Remote Play from my Mac Mini M2 to play on the big screen, using an Xbox controller. Before Xbox Mode it was pretty iffy with random disconnects. After simply rebooting into Xbox Mode, everything ran way smoother and more stable. Honestly the best I’ve ever gotten it to perform. @LinusTech video didn’t really touch on edge cases like this, but just enabling Xbox Mode turned my experience from frustrating to really solid. Anyone else using weird setups with their Ally?
-
Dan Bowman ✝️ (@dplancephd) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam this looks like a fun game what’s the problem?
-
daniel (@dmdanieldope_) reportedwhy tf is saints row 2 not working on geforcenow if I already bought the game and i already played it on there @Steam @NVIDIAGFN
-
ReaperX7 (@reaperx7gaming) reported@LundukeJournal @Steam wayland is broken trashware. Nobody wants broken trashware. X11 or ****.
-
FastPuppy (@fastpuppy) reported@AndoCal78 @CrimsonDesert_ There are a few reports about the crash in the @Steam discussion board for the game so it isn't an isolated problem and is likely related to the last update. Over 200 hours of playtime this without incident before this.
-
Preußens Gloria (@WorldWar3OrBust) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam You have a problem with this but not Furry Hitler 1 & 2?
-
Renki, The floof that stare at your paws. (@RenkiFloof) reportedHey @Steam , Could you please fix your ****? I"m tired to have friend trying/wanting to gift a game, but due to region, or them being overseas, they just can't freaking do it. YET.. I CAN do and send gift to them, make it make a dang sense. Literally can't get games from friends.
-
Political-Eric (@EricThehysteric) reported@Sir_Dammed @Steam fix this bullshit if you want to sell more
