  Blademan Unit Pi (@blademanunitpi) reported 4 minutes ago

  Turned 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?

  @Retro__Machine @videogamedeals @Steam If Sony can’t be trusted with digital games your “physical” ones have little value. Your game shelf is a mix of broken day 1 releases, installers, and completely empty discs with download keys on them.

  @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.

  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?

  @foxgirlfrot @squishygaypaws @Steam Send steam support that screenshot its probably just a glitch.

  @ArcadiaFallen @Steam, could y'all fix this?

  TheTruthHertz (@The_TruthHertz_) reported 15 minutes ago

  @Steam still waiting for a response from your actual human customer service agents. I requested a refund for a game with 0hr played that's outside the 2-week window because of my hospitlization following cancer treatment and sepsis. You've automatically rejected it twice.

  @Steam @Steam_Support My computer was hacked because of the Wallpaper Engine app; they tried to steal my emails and there were suspicious login attempts. My Riot account was also stolen, and I am currently a victim of this situation. I need your help to resolve it.

  Hi X/Twitter Sorry to not speak about chess today, but I have an emergency problem I would need some help from any @Steam / @Steam_Support employee regarding my counter-strike 2 account Please mention anyone I could contact to discuss this matter Thank you !

  @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.

  @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.

  Odd Job for President (@MarkS26th) reported 20 minutes ago

  @Steam Can't sign in, changed password again, can't sign in, changed password again. Don't recognize my email address that you've had for years, missing download for Rome Total War, Steam support is ****, Steam website is ****. Don't respond to requests for support. Steam is ****

  @IGN I hope they do. I hope everyone gives @Steam a reason to join the ecosystem. Cause who the hell wants to pay a subscription service? lol

  Burkino 🥇‏ (@Burkino_1) reported 31 minutes ago

  @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.

  MI Pixel | Wishlist Little Devil on Steam! (@MIPixelStudios) reported 35 minutes ago

  I was trying to release the update now and this has happened! Basically, had an issue where my phone broke, have a temporary one for now. Now @Steam have apparently blocked me from releasing it for 72 hours due to the new phone! 😭 I have sent a message, hopefully we can get this resolved! #IndieDev #GameDev

  @obakepam @Steam If it has it, it has it. I dunno what to tell you since it's becoming a big part of the industry though now we have just as bad of a problem if not worse than unity asset flips.

  @Moonie__OS @Steam Is there a problem? We like the game you ugly ****

  AnimeKing18 (@King18Anime) reported 42 minutes ago

  Found an issues with Steam VR when ether trying to load Steam VR or trying to load a VR Game. @Steam and/or @SteamVR would crash. I thougt it was my dying Hard Drive (because sometimes it causes issues) but no, the solution was to unplug my PS5 controller. IDK if its a issue in Steam or Steam VR given I haven't left my PS5 controller plugged in in a while. Also I'm using Linux (CachyOS) and the headset I'm using is the Quest 3 (sadly) @valvesoftware #Linux #VR #Gaming

  @harrisuryana @Steam @Ubisoft -keep the warp installed and activate it when you get logged out from the ubishit launcher. it happenes because *i think* a lot of us use shared ip from our isp, and it flaggs those ip as an an attack. therefore these issues. hope this helps. let me know if theres any issues.😎👍

  @CrimsonDesert_ @Steam So I'm not sure but maybe the developers can look into what's causing the issue with the lighting and scaling. Running a 5070 RTX 32 GB of RAM and still having issues with running the game in DLSS and DLAA on Max settings above cinematic if possible. The lighting and scaling look blotchy and pixelated but this is something that didn't happen when the game had come out. The only way that I can get the game to look good is to disable all upscaling which includes the two that I've mentioned above.

  @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

  @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!!!

  I like Linux, and am moving to it slowly but @Steam and @Blackmagic_News needs to fix their Linux versions to run seamlessly and add the Code needed to fully use their software.

  @Moonie__OS @Steam It’s a game that teaches about history. I don’t see the problem.

  @stroopwaffelyt @FzzyBzzy @Steam Having freedom is a problem according to people like you. It's a free market and it's not even telling people commit ****. Don't bring that "it influences people" Personal choice is personal choice just as you are virtue signaling right now.

  @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
