    @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!!!

    @Steam bethesda broke our fallout 4 mods. again. is there any way to tell steam to not update a game ever until i say so and still be able to launch it? please? @bethesda if you are not going to fix bugs in the actual game, stop ******* with the game.

  • AUTTENBURGH
    ライアン ☄︎ (@AUTTENBURGH) reported

    He said he would trade me the difference, but before he could return home to do it, the owner of the trading bot account said his trading bot was suspended instantly, like there is no logic in this and the system is broken, i even told @Steam to look at my trade history as proof.

    🖤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?

    @LPNintendoITA @Pirat_Nation @Steam They did for their Launcher. Problem is the game uses a third party launcher and Account so Ea Can do it.

    @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!

    Retro_Macchina (@Retro__Machine) reported

    @boobzwithaz @videogamedeals @Steam My problem is with trusting Sony to sell me a game on PS5, PS6 not having compatibility, and then Sony shutting servers down. PC through Steam does not have that issue - Have had my account since 2007 and every game I have purchased is still there.

    i started gaming again on linux with steam after > 5 years and i am blown! put solid 6 hrs in without a crash. last time i tried, even cs go crashed every 10 mins. truly the year of linux desktop! thanks @Steam for making it sl much better and maintaining it 🥳🥳

  • King18Anime
    AnimeKing18 (@King18Anime) reported

    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

    The Older Gamer Guy (@TheOldrGamerGuy) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support This issue was resolved after we connected to a stable internet connection. Only then did our decks open as normal. Did they have to download something extra? Times differed.

  • EzioKeiji
    Keiji D Ezio (@EzioKeiji) reported

    @obakepam @Steam Indie devs can't afford to hire hundreds of people in multiple studios around the world like UbiSlop or CrapCom. Who cares if the background bushes and trees in a game are AI generated. Truly 1st world problems.

  • fastpuppy
    FastPuppy (@fastpuppy) reported

    @AndoCal78 @CrimsonDesert_ There are a few reports about the crash in the @Steam discussion board for the game so it isn't an isolated problem and is likely related to the last update. Over 200 hours of playtime this without incident before this.

    @ToanChan_ @Steam other issue being 32 and not being able to verify cuz germany doesnt even allow that :) no NSFW games at all.

    @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.

    Darth Diggity (@DarthDiggity) reported

    @BladeoftheS The only problem with that is @Steam isn’t forever. Someday @Disney will own it. They’ll shut it all down and rename it DisneyGames+. What games? You didn’t own any games? But you can get more here at DisneyGames+. Even some you thought you owned. 🤑

    @ToanChan_ @Steam ah ages verify issues just like in canada... i am afraid credit card is only option, here they just put in ban social media under 16 of age but really for older over need send id government card (mainly only id) or credit card if no way

    @ethangach Remember this very well, and then they decided to join Xbox in terms of creating a ghost service for people to pay to play online. If digital is indeed the way, then I shall have the files for myself, God save @gogcom and @Steam

    @Steam TBH: Task Bar Hero distributes unfair bans due to poor cloud implementation without proper explanation, obviously people are unhappy having 0 day(s) since last ban. Please force game developers to solve this issue. If they doubt their vibecoded detection code, unban *all*

    @TopMdw @Steam Hi Kevin, your game is awesome! D you have a working link to the Contraption Maker Discord server by chance? The one I tried on the Steam page is not working... :(

    @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

    @Steam I hope they're is someone who can help. I have used the password change method on the website, but when I go to login it still gives me a "wrong password" message. And also states that I have the steam authenticator app attached and I do not, at least I think I do not.
