    @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.

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

    @Blaziken1500 @Steam This has only happened to a small amount of controllers as they said, i can't tell how many controllers are affected by this, but as to what i looks like(for me) its a issue from GLS and not even Steam. My Steam Deck Oled had arrived in 3-4 days back when it released.

    so apparently if you have 2fa on your steam account and everything but someone still manages to hack your account and buy games off it steam wont refund you even when it's their fault their 2fa system is clearly broken @Steam !! just so everyone knows

    @minkrov @Anaya_sharma876 @Steam The games themselves aren't the problem - most anticheat systems actually support Linux *natively* these days... The problem is that the developers behind many multiplayer games *choose* to blacklist Linux because they're anti-Linux. Also, they're a small part of the industry.

    @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

    @GooningOnRumble @Steam Wtf? I don't believe that I have ever had this issue.

    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

    @choehau_ara @Steam @Steam_Support So then they should fix it.... As their consoles run Linux afterall

    @valvesoftware @Steam I’m fine with a reservation system. But this is honestly ridiculous. This is a controller, not a Console. There is no Pandemic. This is normal Supply/Demand. And limiting customers to one reservation is a little silly imo. The demand for the Steam Controller exists, but it’s not going to rival its Console competitors. The outrage is mostly due to the payment system failures rather than people raging out about a non-existent scalper problem.

    Can 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 🎮

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

    @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.

    @Steam @discord @Windows The CLOSEST thing I got to it working the way I want, is by launching steam or discord via powershell. Which half works (does for Discord). But I launch steam by right-clicking on the icon and selecting 'Friends' so the friends list appears. Which the powershell thing doesnt fix.

    @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.

    @Snowmobile2004 @Steam @OnDeck I'm glad it worked for you, but it looks like a lot of other people have the same issue and tried more times. The algorithm God blessed you

    @Moonie__OS @Steam I fail to see an issue.

  • HHG4Life

    EA games are just so bad! The jankie game save setup between @EA and @Steam means your only ever one game crash away from a wiped save file and start over. 🤦 Been racing my son on NFS Heat. Was just leveling up to his level now back to level 1. Ruuuuuuubish!

    @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.

  • deepvesperplus
    Vesper+ Expansion🎈 (@deepvesperplus) reported

    Lets be real here @valvesoftware has no ***** in this @Steam should be treating the Steam Deck as a loss leader. You're not beholden to investors every quarter. You can afford to eat some margin and make hardware that actually moves the market. Where's the $299 Steam Deck? Where's the $499 Steam Machine? You really think people wouldn't jump on that in a heartbeat? Gaming hardware prices are so messed up right now that Valve could practically own the budget market if it had the nerve to try. @valvesoftware fix it.

  • DatpurpledergAD

    hey @valvesoftware @Steam plz fix that new workshop UI none like (440 comments atm on the page announcing it, 4/5 of them want the old ui back or an option for it), as it doesn't work of some older version of firefox, while beta did. I can't access to workshop anymore by web. TY
