-
Ness_and_Sonic (@Ness_and_Sonic) reported@Judokast @Smthingedgy @Steam There's problems with Steam. The review filter is a big one for me. They applied an off topic review bomb filter to a game that rightfully deserved it for censorship.
-
Henry F (@HFirely) reported@luvk8e @Moonie__OS @Steam Funny how basically all races in USA have no problem with each other except blacks . Why is that ?
-
Meatball545 (@meatball545) reported@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
-
Richard (@RichardvH) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam Don’t see an issue?
-
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!
-
Torelethain (@torelethain) reported@KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam **** off ****, there is plenty of reason for criticism, scalpers are an issue they had figured out and solve on the Deck launch, this was failed roll out. If it genuinely was sold we would be more understanding and happy for Valve. This was a mistep **** sucking fanboi.
-
CrayonsAreTasty (@SeanKazUSMC) reported@OrdinaryGamers @Steam Yeah there goes ever buying one of those...NOT going to happen (have $3k PC, five gaming pcs before that, every playstation every, that playstation portable thing, every XBox ever, every Nintendo except Switch 2, three different Nintendo DS, and I have a gambling problem.
-
Powercheif (@Powercheif) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck I was able to get through the error message and purchase it.
-
Glorious Kev (@GloriousKev) reported@itsunforgiven @valvesoftware @Steam couldn't get one? skill issue

Joenziii ☦︎ (@Joenziii) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Listen I had the same issue but if your gonna complain don’t use ai to ******* do it
-
amber (@_berrrrrr) reportedWent to @Steam to purchase @ParalivesGame which I’ve literally been so excited about but there’s an error when purchasing so Steam took my money, I still dont have the game & I have to wait 72 hours for the refund what the actual fck I’m so mad 😡
-
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
-
Mydia (@MydiaStardream) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Scalpers took all the stock. Please fix.
-
Frank_nice94 (@MRloveyourite) reported@NakiVT @Steam If it was Black people, you wouldn’t have had a problem that slaves
-
transphobic racist (@nodanteowo) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam Everything in order, see no issues
-
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.
-
Agent Spirit (@CodenameSpiritR) reported@Steam Can ya'll fix your refund system please so I can refund an absolute piece of garbage game
-
SLayer (@Slayer_Int777) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam I don't see a problem. Just a game.
-
Torelethain (@torelethain) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Seriously guys, why did you not roll this out like the Deck to prevent scalpers? You already had this problem solved. Big disappointment, guess I'll have to wait now.
-
TheCastoPrime (@casto1378) reported@Steam please help, this is terrible. Your login recovery is trash, I'm locked out for very stupid reasons. Then I started a new account to work around, and I was immediately locked out on the new account.
-
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
-
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.
-
Nigpea (@Infant438117) reported@Moonie__OS @Steam A ******* game teaching everyone how it was back then I don't see the problem?
-
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.
-
Ethan Kirby (@Huckleberry3716) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Good. Hopefully the reservation queue doesn’t crash Steam again tomorrow
-
Creo (@Creo_exe) reportedAlright I need to talk about the customer support over at @valvesoftware and @Steam That **** goes SO HARD. Like, idk what y'all are teaching your employees, but keep that going. EVERY time I've needed ANYTHING you've always been a great help. This is why I use your service.
-
that guy (@danny_mcnasty) reported@smith_rust @valvesoftware @Steam While I hate scalpers, and they were no doubt part of the problem by being apart of the server load, it's not their fault I couldn't purchase one. I had it in my cart at 10:00 PT, immediately went to checkout, and was never able to complete the purchase. My error message didn't change from "error initializing your transaction" to "items in your cart are out of stock" for 40 minutes. This is on Valve and their backend not being able to handle the purchasing traffic. I just hope they're able to identify the issues and make updates so this doesn't happen again in the next batch, the Steam Box, or the Frame
-
Fallout Flashy (@DrewFlashy1) reportedI was skeptical about @Steam's controller costing an outrageous $100, $30 more than a Nintendo Pro controller. However, I now know you can open it to maybe fix it yourself and if you drop it, it Wilhelm screams. Such humanity is worth it. Our household will have 2.
-
Austin Maithya (@austin_is_fly) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam_Support @Steam My accounts have been compromised and I have tried recovery and it is not working kindly assist
-
AnimeKing18 (@King18Anime) reported@Pirat_Nation I love the @Steam support team. Out of all of them Steam support was always there to help and always found a solution to a problem no matter if it's hardware or software. The last time I had to contact Steam support was with a out of warranty Index Controller. They were out of stock at the time and I wanted to see how much they would charge to fix it. After some troubleshooting steps they offered to replace the controller for free (and this was around 2 to 3 months out of warranty). For me I'll buy from Valve before I buy from anyone else, I'm looking forward to the Steam Controller and Steam Frame. @valvesoftware
