    @Steam I can't login to my account and it's not sending me an email to reset my password can you help me.

    @KalitoKalo @YoukaiNewsEN @Steam Do you have a problem with holding people accountable? Just because you like them doesn’t make them immune to the bare ******* minimum standard

    @itsmja00 @Steam I put in a refund request and they gave me an error lol I’m not even really expecting anything I just don’t morally agree with how they’ve conducted themselves. If the game was still running and being updated I wouldn’t request a refund, and I haven’t opened it in years

    @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!

    🖤QuinnieXoXo🖤 (@QuinnieXoXo_) reported

    I really hate doing this but @Steam the customer support is lacking lately. My account got restricted because of a purchase that I refunded and now it’s saying I disputed it and it’s going to be a month before I’m able to make any purchases. Can you please fix this?

  • paponis
    mpampis_ (@paponis) reported

    @Steam Can you explain to me why you ******* change my ps4 controller to xbox buttons? I'm frustrated a lot with this **** I hate xbox, I ain't learning the buttons from the start fix that ****

  • CHRISDBRAND
    CHRISTOPHER D. BRAND (AUTHOR) (@CHRISDBRAND) reported

    And 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.

    @SteamVR @Steam I fully unplugged my pc and still got a error 450

    EVEILCHARM (@EveilCharm) reported

    @ChibiReviews People should be losing their **** over the fact that payment processors wouldn't dare touch a game this big that will drag their asses to court if they tried to deny service. Wish @Steam would step up for the games on it's platform too.

    @UmbrellaFight I'd say Steam's only real issue is discovery, but this is a problem on every platform (and not just for games). I want to see new games, but it's kinda hard to find them. Imagine if @Steam and @X accounts could be linked so Twitter could show games similar to those I like.

    Anyone else having issues with Cloud Syncing on @Steam the last couple days? Eventually it works but takes forever and since i often switch between devices it is really annoying.

    Hey @Steam any chance of talking to someone? Your website is a bit **** when trying to navigate and resolve an issue, so I need a real person.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam I don't see a problem. Just a game.

    @MrKillevrything @GooningOnRumble @Steam Now THAT is saying something. If MKE has many gifted games and has never run into the issue…I don’t know. But I can’t wait for all the stupid suggestions like “Did you check the router?”

  • ruinah
    Abort, Retry, Fail? (@ruinah) reported

    @1981Graf @NakiVT @Steam For promoting and glamorizing slavery and human abuse. If that's not obvious from a quick glance, that's your problem not mine.

    @CounterStrike gonna have to explain to me why I'm banned for 24 hours because my power surged and couldn't connect back in time.. @Steam and your dumbass suggestion saying troubleshoots problems before playing is retarded..

  • TheOldrGamerGuy
    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.

  • The_Novu
    Novu (@The_Novu) reported

    @Steam Gaben is the best and we love Steam but it'd be VERY unfortunate for this to be a problem when I've spent well over a thousand dollars on Steam over the past 15 years.

  • 61390_
    Diego (@61390_) reported

    @FortniteLinux All my support to @valvesoftware and @Steam, they aren't a monopoly, they just offer a better service that people prefer. All of these lawsuits are promoted by stupid competitors that are too lazy to make something better or at least good enough, they just want to ruin gaming.

  • JamesArslanSwe
    James Arslan (@JamesArslanSwe) reported

    Massive 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

    I just finished Poppy Playtime Chapter 1 on @Steam and no achievements popped. Is this a common/known glitch? @mobgamesstudios #achievement #trophy
