    Hey @Steam & @DyingLightGame I’ve got a despondent 11 yr-old here who spent the entire day yesterday building up his new game, but when he logged in today, ALL of his progress had completely disappeared. Any clue how to find it? Or how to avoid this issue happening again? Thanks!

    @Romudeth I’ve owned it for PS3, PS4, will be buying it for PS5, bought it on @Steam and I also owned it on 360. I’m definitely part of the problem too. 😬😬😬😬😬

  • BlissMelly Bliss :D (@BlissMelly) reported

    Wow **** @Steam , their new update made my Civ 6 expansion unplayable. It crashed, game won't open after having the expansion for like two days, and they expect me to troll boards and external sites to fix it myself. They refused me a refund on an expansion their update ruined

    @aiikandy @SkyMavisHQ @Steam Has the issues been resolved?

  • TheIkeHill Ike Hill (@TheIkeHill) reported

    @Steam @OnDeck I think if you pre-order and purchase a steam deck you should let people finally change their login username. We shouldn't be bound by the bad choices from our youth forever.

  • NumPad0_QR Next Ascension (@NumPad0_QR) reported

    @BrandonKingM @Steam @valvesoftware On their Website it shows them switching them pretty seamlessly so it shouldn't be a problem however Valve did mention some will need to be formatted to work so maybe take a blank mSD insert and then move over files.
