    @__Amber_Lynn_ @ToanChan_ @Steam it’s uk law, sites with adult content require age verification. there’s been pushback about facial scans and id scans so some some sites have opted for credit cards. problem is credit isn’t as popular over here, i don’t have one either, means ur locked out of 18+ games

    @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 @Steam_Support How do I make a ticket if I can’t login? I need assistance. No phone number. No email. Just the app which I can’t log into. If I lose thousands of dollars in games I’m going to be so upset. I just need to talk to someone for 5-10 minutes.

    @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!

    @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.

    @DDoubleLumbar @MoistCr1TiKaL @Steam That’s a huge red flag. Forcing browser links without consent? That's crossing a line. It’s not just annoying—it’s a trust issue. Developers need to prioritize user privacy or risk losing players. Who thought this was a good idea?

    Yo @Steam Why you keep signing me out while I'm trying to play Call of Duty fix this sheet please

  • 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.

    @PlayStation I reject the all digital future pushed by the WEF. If that future comes into fruition, the future of gaming should belong to @Steam. I simply don't trust Playstation thanks to previous censorship, woke tendency in the company, dynamic pricing, bad customer service, etc. #FSONY!

    I’ve struggle bussed with all kinds of support from companies in this last year. Incompetent support, slow support, non-existent support… Had an issue with my Steam Deck and @Steam solved it in about two hours. If the world gotta get run by big corps, I’d choose Steam.

  • QuinnieXoXo_
    🖤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?

    @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.

    @NakiVT @Steam Not to mention that this game looks like clewr ai? Not sure if that's normal on steam to allow Not as big of an issue as what you pointed out, but it adds to it being ****

    @obakepam @Steam AI is not a problem. Shovelware predates AI by years.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam What exactly is the problem?

  • exceedorbit
    val (@exceedorbit) reported

    @WeezSays @Steam Boot up Way of the Samurai 4 before the refund period expires. The PC port is very broken and you will be rolling the lottery on if it will allow you to launch the game or not. Almost completely incompatible with Windows 11.

  • UDontLikeSupes
    smmfhbaldytrips (@UDontLikeSupes) reported

    @CallofDutyWire @ETGEACOLLEGE Dis you pre ordered it? Because that seems to be the issue. @Steam wouldn't refund me because they said I've played the game for 2 hours lmao

    @DragonSnow4 @obakepam @Steam As for government's punishment, failure to disclose AI use should result in the permanent destruction of all their copyright with the inability to file new copyrights until they fix it. Anything created during the time of their lie should be free from copyright too.

    @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.

  • AegisOfAvalon
    Aegis of Avalon (@AegisOfAvalon) reported

    @Pirat_Nation @Steam @valvesoftware In an ideal world yes, but it's more to the effect of a grandfathered in aspect. Roughly 75% of everyone is there, other options are almost moot, as a cult following talks about convenance, and then complains about every aspects it creates. If one want's to be able to refund any game, expect that game to be 100 dollars, especially when purchasing it from a 3rd party store front. Don't mistake the issue. This is not a "Steam" issue, it's an informed consumer issue. So what Gabe Newell says is technically true, but the users are on auto pilot to the next fad, not proper investment. It is the consumer that makes Steam a "monopoly", not Steam/Valve itself. #StopKillingGames #DirectSupport #FundAllocation

    @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

    @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.
