Steam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Whiteshadow (@whiteshadow_001) reported@ArtemR @Steam People have stated issues with the overall thermals being very poor
-
Dingo Love Simulator (@dingoman5001) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I'm sorry but that is your problem for making a game with barely a triple-digit minute runtime
-
✨Yutami✨ - Comms Open! (@ArtbyYutami) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I am so sorry this happened and Im glad that person commented as a way for you to see your game isnt the issue, even if they are part of the problem. I hope they change this for smaller games.
-
okay (@Reiiz6) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Idk what game you do but adding new game+ with new ending or bad ending or different ending, unlockable skin/item/achievement through multiple run can fix this problem to certain extend
-
General K (@GKTABM) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Make your game longer than 2 hours worth of content, that is the industry standard. Add more levels. Add more modes. Add more replay-ability. Add more fun modifiers. This is literally a your game is lacking problem.
-
Gingersnaps (@GingersnapsTM) reported@Zoroarts @Steam If you put that DLC you're peddling in the base game instead it would be long enough that nullify this issue.
-
Shedewff🐀 (@Shedewff1) reported@Zoroarts @Steam make a game worth keeping after people finish it idk this is NOT a common problem
-
Average Mortis Enjoyer (@MortisEnjoyer) reported@Daewolf @Zoroarts @Steam It is kinda scummy to refund a 5$ game if you enjoyed it, but still, that issue could have been completely avoided if the DLCs were part of the base game (which is lacking in content). A lot of people don't think 5$ is worth it for an hour long game
-
Mike Steel 💵🥩🥃 (@mike_steel_) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Skill issue. Make your game last 3 hours.
-
TradeMate (@urf10) reported@Zoroarts @Steam if your game can be finished in 2h its not a game you should add more content then you dont have this problem
-
Kellanisverycool (@Kellanisvcool) reported@Zoroarts @Steam lol make a game longer than 2 hours dumbass. I can't believe that's an actual issue you're having.
-
Mikey B (@TheUPSboy) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Sounds like a you problem
-
ParzTV81📺 (@ParzivalTwitch) reported@Steam Im trying to contact someone in support about an issue im having with my account on one of the games i have in my library and there is literally no option to just open a ticket.
-
Erza (@Erza_Oficial) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Nothing against you or your game, but if your game only offers less than 2h of content then that's more a you problem rather than the person playing
-
Useless (@mustafa27007713) reported@Zoroarts @Steam i dont see this as steam fault,2 hours is such a good time window to experience a game especially if its a big pvp paid game (see marathon). now its for sure annoying for people to refund you even tho they loved your game but thats more of people issue then steam issue.
-
Psykatomique productions (@Psykatomique) reported@Zoroarts @Steam At this point, if you sell a game that is less than 2 hour... the gamer is not the problem here... We have more and more games on steam, i would rather have half and more consistent.
-
Apocalypse (@SE_Apocalypse) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Have you ever thought to find other devs with similar nice and short games and release them as compilation instead? You avoid that 2 hours issue that way. 21% refund rate ... still sounds like most people who enjoy the game do want to give you money for it. 11% goes to charity.
-
Indieanos Gaming (@Indieanos) reportedA serious issue especially for indie developers that @Steam needs to take seriously into consideration. If the player finishes the game, should he have the right to refund it? On the other hand, if this change is made and the game is short on purpose, the player is not protected.
-
Jim Crain (@jcrain1991) reported@Britdissonance @Zoroarts @Steam Thanks for answering that yes you are a simpleton. The average person doesn't beat it in 2 hours. Thats what "average time to beat is 3-4 hours" means. If its a refund for not liking it. Fine. That's perfectly acceptable. Problem is...HE SAID THE GAME WAS GREAT IN THE REVIEW!
-
Chud McCloud ✝️🇺🇲 (@MaroonKennedy) reported@eramaster12 @Steam @PlayStation Playstation says they want to double down on live service games even after the failures of Concord and Marathon
-
Girl GPT (@NyaGPT) reported@Steam @Steamworks @STRATO_hilft please unblock our game's server we have this outage cause you guys failed to check reported content I will send a link to the entire site part of the hosting for the rest it was nothing but a game server and a steam game server of a MMORPG
-
Jarad The Sovereign (@bestabyssdad) reported@Zoroarts @Steam cry about it honestly, your niche issue is not going to get in the way of a very good refund policy. make a better game.
-
Machete Paul (@Machete_Paul_) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I've put 5 hours into A Webbing Journey and most of that was before they added real stuff to do. Just ******* with the physics was entertaining enough to earn 3 hours from me. Sounds like a skill issue homie.
-
The Tea Virus (@TheTeaVirus) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Sorry no. Just make your game take longer than 2 hours to beat. You're not the first one with this issue but this is a great policy for consumer rights. I'll never buy a game from someone trying to change that.
-
Kremmen (@Kremmen101) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Clearly this is a pricing issue. If your game is beatable in under two hours you need to charge less so it's not worth refunding.
-
Todd (Fox) (@Fox_Todd0370) reported@Scorcagon @Zoroarts @Steam No, it called a skill issue, making a game doesn't entitle you to people money because they tried it, if the makers had confidence in this game they would had released a demo. People can determine what they value their time and money, it's not up to the developers.
-
gfodor.id (@gfodor) reported@OlexGameDev @Zoroarts @Steam I don’t need to provide a solution to avoid concluding there isn’t one. I’m pretty confident it can be solved, it’s rooted in a classification problem. I have like 5-10 ideas just sitting that I would try if I worked at Valve and cared enough to try to fix it.
-
Carrot King 👑 (@Terkelfisk) reported@Zoroarts @Steam It is weird to refund a game that they liked. But if they didn't like it, then I don't see a problem with them refunding it, even if they completed it. A short game shouldn't be a work around the two hour refund mark that is Steam's policy.
-
goz (@gozfrt) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Anticonsumer ****** *** dev who lies about the numbers. Steams refund policy is the best and your slop of a game wont "fix" something that isnt broken. Next time make a effort to make the game longer than 1h 30mins
-
Maxie 🎮 Bloodstained CotM | Visions of Mana (@maxieaftermdnyt) reported@PlayStation If I wanna play co-op games, I’d rather play on @Steam No need to pay for multiplayer for online co-op. And they have good customer service when it comes to digital purchases, which you DON’T Ya sure can REALLY afford to go discless? #NoDiscNoBuy
